Sponsor a Child
Jesus said “let the little children come to me”. He cared for them then and He cares for the Samburu children now who are living in poverty, both spiritually and physically.
The Samburu are pastoralists who live in deep poverty. Families are large and prospects for children are very limited.
By choosing to love a child through sponsorship, that child will be discipled, educated, and have their physical needs met.
How does sponsorship help?
Education can be a ticket out of poverty for all children. For boys, it provides an alternative to the violent life of a warrior, and for girls it can spare them from child marriage. Children in the program have their educational costs covered and basic needs met through provision of food, clothing, footwear and medical expenses. They also receive one-on-one discipleship.
What is discipleship?
Jesus commanded us in the Great Commission to make disciples, and that’s why we have the personal, one person to one person approach to sponsorship for both children and elderly people. Although discipleship is costly, it’s what we are called to do personally, and our program fulfils that. Through this program we disciple through fortnightly one-to-one meetings where we talk, listen, read the Bible together, give guidance, and pray. To listen, that's love. To learn of all their challenges, then to share the saving message from the Scriptures and to pray with them, bears much fruit.
How much does it cost?
It costs just $15 a week to sponsor a child.
Donations $2 and over are tax-deductible in Australia to the extent permitted by law.
What will I get in return?
The joy of touching a life with God's word and God's love! You will also receive communication from the field every six months, alternating between progress reports and letters from the child. You are welcome to write to the child if you wish.
