Our students are so generous! Aaron Bender did a wonderful job writing about the service project involving all the Junior High Logos classes.
Compassion Child Hardisty 7-4, 8-4, 9-4
After attending a John Bauer concert organized by the Logos Society,
8-4 felt drawn towards sponsoring a compassion child. 7-4 and 9-4 were also
enthusiastic about the idea and joined in. Students from all classes organized
a bake sale that earned us $547 towards the cause. We further researched the
idea and found a child that had been without a sponsor for 422 days! We all
agreed it was time for this girl to experience the love of God through our
work, and Djamilatou Beogo became our sponsor.
Djamilatou Beogo was born on February 6, 2006. She lives in the
landlocked country of Burkina Faso, a country in West Africa with her
parents. Most of the homes in this area are simple and made of cement floors,
brick walls and tin roofs. Djamilatou does what she can for her household,
frequently running errands for her parents. Her favorite activity is to play
group games. She attends school and also regularly Bible class where she
learns about God and prays for people like us, someone that can change her
life, and the lives of her village.
We are really excited to see this girl grow spiritually and physically,
through the care and nutrients we are supporting her with. We will keep you
posted on her progress and please take the time to include her and her family
in your prayers.
