Child Sponsorship

Gillingham Community Church members sponsor children in India and Colombia.

Here's the latest news, direct from Colombia so please excuse the English. The child's name has been removed to protect him.

Dear Katrina and the prayer Group,

About [the boy you support], I would like to Inform you that he is doing very well at school, he just began another year, at the beginning of February which is usually the beginning of the school year here in Colombia.

Due to the trafficking of kids from South America to other parts of the world, the Government has prohibited taking photos of the kids or giving information about them that may cause problems for the safety of the kids.

Remember that this kids have no parents, and some of them have been used by the guerrillas or drug trafficking, it is then understandable the position of the government to protect the kids! So the only thing I can send you is the school report about how he is doing at school, nevertheless we visit them regularly, making sure they are well!!.

SCHOOL REPORT

  • Maths: 10/10
  • Spanish: 9/10
  • Fisical exercise: 10/10
  • Colombia Culture: 7/10
  • History: 10/10
  • Art: 10/10
  • Musical Instrument: (guitar): 8/10
