Compassionately Courageous

I want to introduce you to 13 of my dear friends in Mozambique. They are compassionately courageous. Each day they minister to those who have AIDS in Dondo.  They walk for miles on the sandy paths connecting with those in Project Life, an AIDS hospice without walls. Their salaries are meager, they earn $28 a month.  That doesn't stretch far when milk is $8 a gallon and butter is $5 a pound.  Some have children to feed and school books and uniforms to buy. They try to grow rice in their "machambas" or fields but their fields are far and a full week of meeting the needs of the hurting makes it difficult to allot time for tending a crop to produce a year's supply of food.  At one time, the Mozambican government paid these small salaries but they no longer provide the funds.

I am looking for compassionately courageous sponsors.  Sponsors who will commit to send $30 a month.  Sponsors who will commit to pray for their chosen activista.  In return, these sponsors will be able to communicate individually in letters and pictures during the year to form a friendship. Please read the small vignette about each activista below and prayfully consider a sponsorship.  You may email me at: phil.pamela@childrensrelief.org
if you are interested in sponsoring one of them.  When you can't go to Africa to help those with AIDS, you can help those who are there ministering in the name of Jesus.
