Dear God . . . Are you brown like me?
Sara, God made you and all His children in His likeness — despite skin color, or birthplace — rich or poor! Little friend, you are like Him! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Surround children — your own and other people's children as well — regardless of color or nationality — with your love and attention and support. The word "community" is more than just a gray sociological description. It's a "God-term" — designed by the Creator of children to nurture their spirits as they grow. Welcome a child into the center of your life. It will enrich not only them — but you as well. Become a big brother or big sister. Mentor a foster child. What you do matters in the life of a child! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion — to a child in your world.
