Jostin our second sponsor

Jostin age 4

After a short period of time i felt that it was Gods calling when a little boy appeared on the sponsorship page on Compassion internantional At this point my first sponsorship with Madina was done within the UK. Jostin however was on the international webpage. However i knew he was the little chap i wanted to help. His cute little face and curly hair drew me in almost immediateley. The more i looked the more i wanted to sponsor him. At this time i felt i was beggining to suffer the effect of what another member of Our compassion called sponsoritus. My husband at that point was unaware of the next plan i had. I bless him really for my challenging ways and my eagerness so quickly to have two sponsors. I knew it was manageable to have two however he was very good about wanting to help. Jostin Lives in North America, in Nicaragua . Common health risks in this area are Malaria,Dengue fever Diarrhea,flu,coughs,malnutrition and sexually transmitted diseases. Jostin is 4 years old and helps his parents gather firewood. Jostin sounds like he also has fun as he loves to run, skip and play football. At this point i ask myself does anyone with a 4 year old collect firewood . Our children have the oppurtunites of nurserys or kindergarten where they can learn . What Jostin will learn is to have god in his heart and to learn his love and share. Jostin will also have the oppurtunity to access some of the things we take for granted in our lives. If this photo dosnt steel your heart and make you think more about how much sponsorship means to these children then look again and look into your heart and check the pages of sponsored children you can help .
Jostins first letter was sent on the 07/04/2013 i lookforward tohearing from jostin and learning more about him
