On Sunday was our annual COMPASSION SUNDAY gathering where we highlight our partnership with Compassion to release children from poverty in Jesus' name. It was a fantastic morning where Ryan Smith (Our local compassion correspondent) shared about hope in the neighbourhood. "God's not dead, he's bread" - Sister Mary Conita Ryan draws from Matthew 15 and the feeding of the 5000 with 7 loaves of bread and 2 small fish. Like Jesus, we need to recognise the people in need and trust God to provide.

In this special sermon on Compassion Sunday, Pastor Jon Ewton highlights Woodlands Church's mission to release children from poverty through Compassion International. Drawing from personal experiences, he emphasizes that sponsorship is a meaningful expression of our Christian identity. Guest speakers Don and Elizabeth Smith share their transformative experiences as sponsors, and Owen Gathinga, a Compassion alumnus from Kenya, shares his incredible journey from poverty to becoming an accountant, thanks to sponsorship's support and the love of Christ. This week, we aim to sponsor 250 children—each sponsorship is a step toward changing lives.

Where Dave, Whitney, and Jon dive deep into the challenging themes of 1 Peter 3:1-7, exploring marriage, relationships, and how Bible shapes our lives. The discussion centers on the themes of relationships within the context of marriage and household dynamics, emphasizing the importance of understanding scripture in a healthy way while addressing common misinterpretations. They explore the concept of sanctification through relationships, the call to reflect Christ-like behavior, and the significance of community support. Don't forget about this upcoming Compassion Sunday—a chance for us to sponsor children in need. Key insights and truths await us all!

One reason why the book of James is so challenging and practical is that it lays out a series of tests that are designed to help us understand what authentic Christianity looks like in action, so that we may then examine our own lives and faith to see how we measure up. And according to James, one of the things that a living, genuine faith ought to produce within us is Christlike compassion—the way we think about, speak about, and treat the poor and the vulnerable. This Sunday, our mission partner Eric Prager (Executive Director of Baja Christian Ministries) will be the guest speaker for our annual “Compassion Sunday”. Join us as we consider this challenge from James, and be reminded that loving, caring for, and meeting the practical needs of the vulnerable and hurting all around us is the job of every single believer—as fundamental to our Christian living as evangelism, discipleship, and worship.

Compassion Sunday 2024

Dr. Wess Stafford, Former president and CEO of Compassion International and an advocate for children shares his testimony and why he is an advocate for children in poverty.   As the son of missionaries to the Ivory Coast, Wess grew up as one of the village children cared for by a wise and loving African “extended family.” But his young heart was often broken as he watched his African friends die from the cruel ravages of poverty. Wess felt privileged to continue his parents' commitment to the poor through the ministry of Compassion International. Wess joined the staff of Compassion International in 1977 and worked with the ministry, both overseas and at headquarters. He served as President for 20 years. Wess is a veteran, having served four years in the U.S. Army as a linguist in military intelligence. He is also an avid outdoorsman and committed family man, living on a small ranch near Colorado Springs, Colorado, with his wife Donna who was a Compassion sponsor even before she met Wess. They have two daughters, Jenny and Katie — the two children in the world for whom Wess is the greatest advocate of all.
