Get Involved!
Romans 12.13 says, "When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality." (NLT)
We can all do something to ease the burden of another... give financially , listen to someone's story, help someone with housework, run errands for someone. The organizations listed below are a few ways in which you can get involved and make a difference. Whatever you choose, whether it's one of those listed or one that's not, do something you feel passionate about. It will make all the difference.
Compassion International
"Compassion International exists as a Christian child advocacy ministry that releases children from spiritual, physical, economic and social poverty and enables them to become responsible, fulfilled Christian adults."

It only takes $32 a month, and you will change the life of a child forever. To find out more about sponsoring a child, please visit Compassion.
You can also become an advocate for Compassion to aid in raising awareness of the environment these children are forced to live in.
International Justice Mission
"As you consider meaningful gifts to purchase for friends, colleagues and clients this year, why not give the gift of freedom instead of the traditional fruit basket or gift certificate? Your gift will provide rescue and renewed hope to victims of slavery, sexual exploitation, violence and other forms of oppression. You will also demonstrate your desire to make an impact in the world while introducing others to the work of IJM."
