Little By Little One Travels Far

What can you do with $10?  

If your first thought was "not much", then I'd have to agree.  Perhaps 2 trips to Starbucks? One movie ticket?  A weekday lunch?

But for that same paltry $10 you can make a real difference in the life of a child.  Benjamin Loera in Chiapas, Mexico is looking for monthly sponsors for the kids in his children's home. He figures that if a lot of people give a little, then the work will get done.

I'm no communist, but I do think that those of us with more should share with those who have less.  Thank God that I grew up in a loving, stable Christian home, and always had my material needs met.  That's not true of everyone, and it's certainly not true of the kids that Benjamin serves.  I've stayed at his children's home, have met Benjamin's family, and can tell you that they are offering hope and Christian love to a group of kids who have no experience with either.

The First Baptist Church of Rio Rancho, NM is handling the details.  Mail your check payable to FBCRR, and mail to 

First Baptist Church of Rio Rancho
3906 19th Av SE, 
Rio Rancho, NM 87124

Mark on your check “Chiapas-sponsor a child”.  100% of monies given go to the children's home.
