An innocent young face in a photograph touches our heart and we commit ourselves to sponsor that child. WE do it out
of a desire to help the poor. We don't realise that coming fact-to-face with the poor will bless us too - in ways we
can't imagine. Many of those who sponsor children through Compassion have had the opportunity to visit them in the
slums and villages of the developing world. Stasi Eldredge, Phil Keaggy, Rebecca St James, Steve Grace, graham
Kendrick, Darlene Zschech and many others describe how such visits have changed their lives.

God In South Africa - Nolan, Albert

longer support the apartheid state but are uncertain where the liberation struggle will lead.

the questions facing real women in today's world. While stories are told and retold about the men who suffer for
their faith, these women are the forgotten victims of the persecuted church.
