Welcome

Welcome to the Advocates' tour to Ethiopia website.

Here you can keep up to date with the activities of our group of advocates as we travel to Ethiopia from the 20th to the 31st of May 2009 to see the work of Compassion.Advocates are sponsors with a heart for our ministry who volunteer some of their time on an ongoing basis to promote Compassion in their churches and within their spheres of influence.

The team will spend time meeting staff and children in projects, visiting the homes of Compassion sponsored children, seeing how the country office operates and meeting formerly sponsored children. We will try to update the site each day whilst we are in Ethiopia and we hope you find it interesting. Enjoy!

Meeting Tigist and Estifanos (25/5/2009)


If anyone ever doubts that they should sponsor a child, they should have been here today and seen the sheer joy on the faces of children released from poverty for a day of fun with people who love them. These little ones who somedays only have a handful of grains to eat, tucked into a huge plateful of food as if they had done it all their lives. They showed us so much love in one day and so much thankfulness, we are truly humbled. God bless them all.
