It is beyond rare that I would ever ask anything that involved finances of those who subscribe to or read this blog. Yet this time of year when we are all making lists, buying presents and attending Christmas parties I was hoping to turn your attention to something very close to the heart of God: children and poverty. As many of you know SLU is in its second year of a partnership with Compassion International helping students, their families and youth groups sponsor children in need around the world. This week my hope and prayer is that you will take the next 93 seconds, watch the following video and consider sponsoring a child. Rememberone act can save a life.

Sponsor a Child with Compassion right here.
