Our next child sponsorship story is from Paul & Amy Dameron!
Have you ever heard the saying that “Prayer changes things”? Well, from our experience it does. Years ago, we were impressed to do something more for God. We are members of a small modest church and our church doesn’t really have the financial ability to do a lot. We have a handful of members. But, we just wanted to do more to be part of the “Body of Christ”. To participate with a sincere heart of helping someone or some organization. God led us to Caroline’s Promise and that’s where the change occurred.
We went on our very first International mission trip and absolutely fell in love with the people of Guatemala. These people have very little monetary things. But, they have a heart and it was visible in their eyes and their hugs. We immediately decided to sponsor two children which has led to our church supporting a teacher in the teacher sponsorship.
We have since visited on four different mission trips and we write our sponsored children and teachers. We have also promoted the mission of Caroline’s Promise in our community and with friends and strangers. There is a serious need for not only funding, but also for the gospel of Jesus Christ to be spread throughout the Guatemala community. One small step for God’s purposes has led to years of a developing friendships with our sponsored children and teachers. It is amazing to look back on that year of prayer when we pressed toward seeking for God’s direction and meaning. We are blessed with beautiful friendships and smiling faces who need help and need to know that God loves them and has offered Jesus Christ for each of them. We are very thankful for our experiences with Caroline’s Promise. Prayer sure does change things……
