About Compassion:
We are Christ-centered. Jesus is at the center of everything we do, so every child in our program hears the gospel and sees it in action through local church pastors, volunteers and sponsors.
We are church-driven. We empower local churches in impoverished communities to serve children in need. This enables churches to fulfill their role as sources of light and hope, representing Christ and making disciples in their communities.
We are child-focused. We exist to release children from poverty in Jesus' name. As children grow into thriving followers of Jesus, they can transform their families, communities and nations.
About Compassion Sunday:
Compassion Sunday is an event held during your church service. The event usually involves a message or short testimony from you or a sponsor in your congregation, a short video, a call to action and a sponsorship sign-up table.
