I had been thinking about sponsoring a child for some time now but I didn't know if that was what God wanted me to do! I really love Africa and I have a lot of buddies that live in Africa that are missionaries for Christ and when I grow up I want to go and be a missionary also to Africa!
Anyways, Building 429 had a big talk on sponsoring a child and I felt that this confirmed that this was my calling as a young girl still learning all about God, was to help Africa by sponsoring a little child in need! So...I got this beautiful child of God...
Her name is Miretu. She is a month and one day older than the girls and will be 5 in about a month. Without supporting her she would never go to school, hardly eat everyday, never have clean water, either help out on the farm with her father or grow up to be a housewife and never do anything else. :( Since I started to support her she can go to school, get clean clothes, have enough food, have clean water, support the rest of the family and much much more! (For not that much money a month!) I am so excited to help this precious little girl!
Oh, and this is my Africa wall. There all probably thousands of pictures of needy Africans! I am actually suprised that it has gotten this big! May God's name be blessed through me, a small vessel for Jesus!
