Campaigning for Compassion

As another election day has come and gone, I look around to see all the various yard signs and bumper stickers around my community that support a particular group or politician. It is just amazing how politics is such a strong influence in how our society operates. I can't help but think how backwards this can be as we ought to operate under Christ's authority and working to advance his kingdom.

According to Merriam-Webster's dictionary, campaign is defined as a connected series of operations designed to bring about a particular result. As a Compassion International child advocate and sponsor, I am operating within a series of operations that were designed to bring about the eradication of extreme poverty, in the name of Jesus Christ.






Compassion makes it so easy for us to be "campaigners" for Christ's mission to release children from poverty. Best of all, the resources offered are all free stuff!


Here are a couple of resources that are available to you:


- Yard signs
- Bookmarks
- Bumper stickers and window clings
- Counter displays with brochures




Please utilize these resources. I encourage you to spread the word and share your story about how Compassion International has worked to bringing others to Christ. They are great conversation starters! How are you a campaigner for Compassion? Please share your ideas and activities with us!

  1. You know, I ordered some yard signs in July and they never came. I should try to order again. What a great idea!
