AIDS Oprhan Care
September 1, 2011
Recently, Bob Pearson of Horizon International
was our guest and challenged us to share in the care of AIDS orphans.
Bob's message was truly challenging and 80% of those in attendance
responded by choosing to sponsor an orphan for $35 a month.
After sharing at Grace Point, Bob shared the same challenge with two other congregations in the area (Ira Church of God and Odessa First Church)
with similar results. After the weekend, Bob was thrilled to have so
many new child sponsorships. The need for sponsorship is still
immense. Will you help by sponsoring at least one of the remaining
orphans at the Ibonde Children's Home (look for the children with "Uganda-Ibonde" listed below their picture) in Fort Portal, Uganda?
Our hope is to see each family at Grace Point sponsor at least one child.
Since many of us are now sponsoring one of the orphans at Ibonde, we
hope to take a trip there in the next three years to meet our children.
