A couple of weeks ago our church staff attended the Catalyst Conference in Atlanta. There were a little over 12,000 church leaders in attendance. The speakers represented a wide spectrum of church sizes and styles. Several ministries were highlighted including Compassion International.
This video shares the work of Compassion in reaching out to the estimated 143 million orphans in the world with God's love and personal care and concern for their basic needs. At about the 3:45 mark of the video, you will see one of the most moving moments I have witnessed in a long, long time. You'll be blessed.
What an amazing story of how the love of Christ really does change lives. I wonder how many times I walk down the street and do not see the needs of people just like Jimmy. As you said Sunday, "Lord, may my heart be broken by the things that break Your heart!"
