Yesterday I got my first letter from Epesu, my Compassion child. It came on a special “first letter” stationary that has some information on him and his life that I would like to share with you.

First
Notice the drawings in the picture. A flamingo, a man and woman, a basketball, another bird, a car, a hut, and the purple building I think is a church. Also, the giraffes on the side of the page are colored in. Adorable, right?

Second
His parents are both 24 years old, he will be four in just over a month, and he has a brother who is 18 months. That’s just a very humbling fact that jumps out at me. I am completely honored to be a part of their lives in helping Epesu as his sponsor.

Third
Epesu needs healing prayer for a complication in his left leg. I don’t know any more than that, but I’m praying for him and I ask that you would pray for him too.

Thanks for taking this journey with me.
