Happy Birthday, Little Ones!

These strong, resilient babies have reached their birthdays! Through your faithful support, these children and their moms have made it through the critical first year together.

With your support and the never-ending grace of God, these kids are thriving, ready for a party full of joy with their loved ones!

And their moms — Tirunesh, Nathalie and Yasmina — are flooded with relief and gratitude. They can breathe easier because their children have made it this far and now have a healthy foundation to keep growing. And they’re eternally grateful they didn’t have to do it alone.

You were there every step of the way during this critical first year. Thank you!

If God is calling you to do even more, you can help open and sustain more centers to welcome more moms and babies. Give now.

ETHIOPIA: It's Ididiya's birthday!

For so long, Tirunesh couldn’t feed her family. But today, she celebrates her little girl with a spread of treats. She found hope in her Compassion Nurturers center.

BURKINA FASO: Happy birthday, Steeve!

Nathalie and Bernard are so excited to celebrate their 1-year-old son, Steeve. It’s the first time they’ve been able to have a birthday party for one of their kids. Now, they look forward to celebrating birthdays every year!

We just received pictures from another birthday party — a second birthday for the triplets, Djamal, Madjid and Manane! These boys are doing so well, and it’s thanks to your support last year. You set a strong foundation for the whole family!

Join us in praising God for these mothers and their babies! It's a true miracle that he brought them to this milestone.

We praise him for his love and faithfulness! Continue to pray for these families and the ones we’ll serve together in the future. Pray for:
