{rice, beans & love}

It’s that time of year, spring is coming, but not quite here yet. The snow is melting, but the flowers have yet to peak through. Warm weather wants to come, but it has been a long winter. I’ve been home for only two short weeks and I’m already so sick of the cold, ready to get back to the Caribbean heat!

It’s lent season and they’re telling you to give something up, but today I want to challenge you to take something on! For the next 60 days we will be posting a child every day who is still in need of a sponsor on our Touch of Hope Facebook page.

If we get these 60 children sponsored in the next 60 days, we will have reached 300 children sponsored in our school sponsorship program. For those of you unfamiliar with our history, we started this program in the fall of 2011 and it has exploded into a Kingdom program with 900+ children in 2.5 short years. For me, knowing 300 children are sponsored means Jesus is in and all around this program. He’s blessing the sponsors and the children who are sponsored.

Sponsoring a child provides these children with a daily meal at school, uniforms, text books and school supplies. It also pays the wages of our 50+ employees. Sponsoring a child is kingdom work and God delights in that. If you are already a sponsor, please click and share and tell friends about what’s happening on our mountaintop. Invite people to like our Facebook page and like it yourself if you haven’t already done so!
