Your sponsorship will go beyond meeting basic and educational needs. Your sponsorship will provide for a child’s spiritual and emotional needs by presenting the gospel and demonstrating God’s love.


Jean-Marie is a young boy who lives with his parents and siblings in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In this area, life is very difficult as ninety percent of the population is unemployed. His parents do their best to provide for the children, but unfortunately, it is not enough to adequately meet their daily needs. Jean-Marie is a kind and respectful boy who enjoys playing with his friends and siblings. At home, he is a great help to his parents as he goes to fetch water. At school, his favourite subject is French. When Jean-Marie grows up, he would like to work as a doctor.
