Brazil (MNN) ― Six children assisted by Compassion International are now homeless after fire swept through their community last week.
A fire in the slums of Sao Paulo, Brazil spread fiercely, destroying over 100 homes and leaving around 250 people homeless. Among these individuals were Compassion's six supported children and their families.
Compassion has a child development center in the affected region, and they are currently preparing to respond, lending aid to the impacted children and their families.
Compassion said they will contact you if your sponsored child has been affected.
As Compassion reaches out to these families, pray that they will have opportunity to share Christ's story of redemption with many people.
Also, pray for the children and families now homeless. As they have lost many, if not all, of their possessions, ask God to provide for their every need and send His comfort to them during this devastating time.
