Something Every Christian Should Do.

When I read the latest update from World Vision, I was immediately struch with the that "Child Sponsorship Is Something Every Christian Should Do." My family sponsors a little boy through Compassion International. While we are not always the best at sending notes and coloring pictures, I don't let that kind of silly guilt lead to inaction. So every month, $32 is automatic withdrawn from our account to ensure that Williamson Joseph will not die from hunger. Stop the craziness. Don't delay. Sponsor a beautiful little boy or girl. Now. Every Christian Should.

WORLD VISION -- EVERY 7 SECONDS A CHILD DIES FROM HUNGER

Dear Friend,

In addition to several recent Asian disasters and African conflicts affecting the lives of children, there is a deadly situation that is rocking the world as a whole. Called the "Silent Tsunami," it is the severe and growing international food shortage - one that is fast becoming a crisis.As a result, children are slowly - yet quietly - starving to death. In fact, at this point in time, a child dies from hunger every seven seconds. That's more than 14,000 children each day from among millions more who are suffering. The voices of these suffering and dying children must be heard.That's why I'm writing ... to tell you that together, we CAN do something about this developing crisis right now.
