WE’RE DOING A “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN

International Children’s Carewho build and maintain Seventh-day
Adventist Children’s Villages for orphaned and abandoned children
in third world countries.
WHAT IS A “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN?
WHAT IS A “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN?
• It’s an awareness program to help provide homes and families for orphaned and abandoned children.
• Our youth group will hold several fundraisers including a 25 Hour Prayer Vigil and Fast to get a taste of true hunger and pray for children.
• Through family, friends and group fundraisers we raise money to save kids’ lives and give them families. ($30 will help feed and care for a child for an entire month!)
• The experience teaches us about Christ’s compassion, and about how we can help make a difference in the world.
ARE CHILDREN THAT ARE ORPHANED AND ABANDONED A BIG
ISSUE?
ARE CHILDREN THAT ARE ORPHANED AND ABANDONED A BIG
ISSUE?• There are millions of orphaned
and abandoned children in third world countries.
• They are the outcasts of society with no one to love or care for them.
• Most don’t know Jesus.
WHY DO THE “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN?
WHY DO THE “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN?
• James 1:27 says, “You must help orphans and widows…”
• Psalms 82:3-4 says, “Be fair to the poor and to orphans. Defend the helpless and everyone in need. Rescue the weak and homeless from the powerful hands of heartless people.”
• We want to feel the power of Christ’s compassion.
• It will bring our youth group closer together, and in a closer relationship with Christ.
• If we don’t step up, who will?
HOW THE “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN MAKES A
DIFFERENCE
HOW THE “WE CARE” CAMPAIGN MAKES A
DIFFERENCE• Just $1 can help feed, educate, and care
for a child for an entire day.
• The price of a family meal we eat at a restaurant in the U.S. can provide food and care for several months.
• We’re offering children more than saving their life – we’re giving them love, family, and hope for a better future.
