As of today,
We have OVER HALF the kids sponsored at Tullo Kebele in Awassa, Ethiopia.
Praise the Lord!
Thank you everyone who has stepped up and accepted the call to care for the needy, the poor, and the orphaned!
Thank you for your commitment to these children and their community.
Please continue to tell everyone you know about your relationship with your child and your convictions to care from them as God commands us.
"If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth." (1 John 3:17-18)
Thank you for taking action. We look forward to seeing the differences that we can make for this community by working together for God's glory!
Please continue to advocate for these children.
If you worry that you are annoying your friends/family/co-workers/neighbors or that your words are falling on deaf ears, do not give up! I recently reread a Bible verse that spoke to me about just this:
"Obviously, I'm not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ's servant." (Galatians 1:10)
God commands us to take care of the poor and the needy (Proverbs 14:21, Proverbs 14:31, Proverbs 19:17, Proverbs 31:8-9, etc). We are also told frequently throughout Scripture of the consequences if we do not (Proverbs 21:13, Proverbs 28:27).
Thank you again for your efforts to take care of those in need.
If you know anyone else that would be interested in sponsoring a child at Tullo, please have them email me at Andrea@starved4hope.org for more information.
Also, check us out on www.Facebook.com/Starved4Hope There we have all the children at Tullo in our Tullo Children Photo Album, and you can see who still need to be sponsored!
**Stay tuned to see what Starved 4 Hope is doing in Guatemala (entry to follow in the next few weeks!)

81 children sponsored
81 children sponsored! That is phenomenal! Praise the Lord! That is almost half the children at Tullo. There are still 87 children that are in need of sponsorship.
Here is a quote from one of our favorite books, "Radical" :
"...orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They are easier to ignore before you see their faces. It is easier to pretend they're not real before you hold them in your arms. But once you do, everything changes."-David Platt
Thank you for not ignoring the children at Tullo.
God Bless You!
