Letter from Ricardo

Sunday, November 9th, 2008

We got a letter from Ricardo (in El Salvador) the other day.  He is one of the kids we sponsor through Compassion.  I met Ricardo the last time I traveled to El Salvador.  The church and Compassion Student Center was amazing!  What $1/day can do.  Those “mentors” mentioned in the letter are church members who volunteer to tutor the kids at the Compassion center.  They are learning English to be able to break the cycle of poverty in this rough part of El Salvador.

Meeting my Compassion sponsored child in El Salvador

Saturday, October 18th, 2008

I went to El Salvador last year as a photographer for Compassion. While there, I met and sponsored a child from San Vincente(I think that was the name). The church affiliated with the Compassion project is a big one that was funded by a church in San Salvador. I was VERY impressed with the pastor there.
