My New Little Girl
Meet Venkatamma. She’s 3 and she lives in India.
Isn’t she precious? I love the red ribbons in her hair and the bracelets on her arms. I love how properly she’s standing and how she’s nervously gripping her shorts. I love her big wide eyes.
Today I became her sponsor and I can’t wait to get to know her better. I can’t wait to hear how a small sacrifice of $32/month for me will create immenous opportunities for her.
Venkatamma,
I’m so excited to be your sponsor. You are an amazing and beautiful little girl! I know God has big dreams for your life and I hope that I can be even a small part of that. This is what I’m praying for you…
… that you experience love and joy every day
… that you do well in pre-school and develop a love for learning
… that you have moments to enjoy playing with your dolls and your friends
… that you stay healthy and strong
… that you learn about God and give your life to him soon
… that you know that you are loved and thought of every day by a busy, self-absorbed woman who is finding her heart already softened and changed because of you.
Your new friend,
Jenni
Cross Point – you’ll have a chance to sponsor a child through Compassion tomorrow at both of our campuses.
For all the rest of you – go here and sponsor a child of your own.
We CAN make a difference… one life at a time!
She is beautiful…I hope you get to meet her one day. She has your eyes 😉
So awesome! I’m so inspired!! ♥
You did it!!! Yay! I’m so excited for you and you’re right, she’s precious!
Congrats ! She is beautiful 🙂

Precious! If you need advice on what to send or say to a 3 yr old girl, I’ve got your living example here. Love that Venka is a girly-girl like you.
Congrats Jenni, i know you have been searching for the right situation for a time now. Looks like you made a great choice, she is beautiful. i hope this brings great joy to you and Venka.
She is absolutely adorable! Yea! I get to be a grandmother afterall! I’ll certainly keep her in my prayers along with you and Merlyn. She couldn’t have a better sponsor.
