Meet Our New Child

I am pleased to introduce you to Kabore Blandine, our new child through Compassion! 

  • Blandine lives in Burkina Faso, West Africa.
  • She will be 13 in December.
  • Blandine helps her family by running errands and helping in the kitchen.
  • She like to sing, jump rope, and play group games.

This is our first Compassion sponsorship, so I was so surprised when I literally looked through dozens of children’s pictures who need sponsorship (and I was told there is actually hundreds)!

I chose Blandine because she is older, and I thought it would be good for her to get assistance from Compassion before she becomes an adult.  Also, she wasn’t smiling and looked sad!  I was also told that a lot of times they have never seen a picture of themselves or had their picture taken, so they don’t know to smile.

The best thing about the whole experience is knowing that I am going to get to meet Blandine in November when I go on my mission trip to Burkina Faso! 

We will be going to a Compassion site, and I can’t wait to meet her!

Please join me in praying for Blandine, for all the Compassion children around the world, and all the children in the world who are impoverished.  They need our prayers!
