Dear God. . .Can I be a pilot when I grow up?
You sure can, Geoffrey! Dream big! And when you do become a pilot — I want to be your first passenger! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Don't you love that? This young man deserves every opportunity we can give him to realize his dreams. When you're with a child, stimulate their imagination, challenge their spirit. You can be a consistent, loving, predictable presence in a child's life. Become a big brother or big sister, volunteer to help a child in a shelter with their reading or math. Help out at a school lunchroom, or playground. Be a volunteer teacher's aide or tutor. Helen Keller said, "I cannot do everything, but still I can do something!" This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with Compassion to a child in your world!
