My family has supported Daniel, from Nigeria, for the past year.  It's been a blessing.  We're far from rich, but we've still got enough to live on.  They don't.  And to me, having the ability to help and not helping isn't being a wise steward.  Also, they get the gospel as well, which is paramount in supplying their physical needs.  We go through World Vision.

That's wonderful....how old is Daniel?  Do you get letters from him very often?

At Christian Aid it is only $20 to sponsor a child but you don't get letters....just a bio and an update each year, I think.  If you want letters, too, it's a few dollars more.

One of the missions in Bangladesh I try to help, helps about 54 poor children in the village areas.  They are from families that have come to know the Lord as their Savior.

He's a month or so older than my oldest daughter, so he's 9.  We get letters every so often, and visa versa.  It's $30 through World Vision a month.  Cool about the mission!
