• In the Dominican Republic (DR), most dwelling are constructed from tejamanil (a mixture of soil and manure) or have been patched together using pieces of wood and empty oil drums. As many homes are inadequate for human health and well-being, children suffer from chronic respiratory illnesses and are highly vulnerable to hygiene-related illnesses.  Four of Compassion’s frontline church partners in DR have identified 18 children, a total of 15 homes, need immediate aid to provide them with safe shelters essential to their holistic development.  Please remember the poor along with generous donation to improve their living standard.  Visit compassion.ca/shop/civ1246/ for project details and donation.
• Christmas is coming, Let’s remember many missionaries away from homes but serving faithfully overseas for God. We encourage cell groups to prepare cards or gifts to share our care and support to them.
