World Vision Child Sponsorships

World Vision is an international organization that focuses on children living with food insecurity in developing countries all across the world. Participating individuals (or groups) sponsor a child at a cost of $39 per month, and this sponsorship fee provides food for that child. In addition to your regular church giving and your ongoing support of our Global Ministry partnerships, child sponsorship through World Vision is one option that individuals, families, and groups may choose as a way to support and enter into relationship with our global neighbors. The purpose of this invitation is to provide an opportunity for members of our congregation to become more personally involved in global mission. To learn more, you can visit with Dr. Russell Steele and David Grissett who will be in Frampton Fellowship Hall following worship this Sunday to share about their experiences of sponsoring children over the years through World Vision. You may also visit worldvision.org.
