Compassion

You’ve heard me talk about the impact that Compassion Experiences have on churches. One of those experiences is having a Compassion Alumni Speaker share his/her story with your congregation.

For generations, testimonies of God’s faithfulness have made a powerful impact on His people. Compassion’s Alumni Speakers carry on that sacred tradition by sharing their personal testimonies with you. Born into poverty, these speakers joined Compassion’s program as kids, came to know Christ, and grew up to become doctors, pastors, teachers, and more. They speak passionately about the eternal impact of the local church and a caring sponsor. Depending on the need, Alumni Speakers may speak in person or through custom videos recorded for your church.

Booking an Alumni Speaker is COMPLETELY free, and this experience will open your congregation’s eyes to the impact each person can make on a child’s life.
