This is my sponsored child. Her name is Lydia Yawa Sowah. She lives with her father and her mother in Ghana which is in West Africa. She is responsible for carrying water, running errands and cleaning. Her father is sometimes employed and her mother is sometimes employed. There are 10 children in the family.
Singing and playing group games are Yawa's favorite activities. In primary school her performance is average and she also regularly attends church activities and Bible class.
When I started getting involved with Compassion, I wanted to sponsor a child that lived in Africa, has my mom's name, and has a birthday close to that of my mom's. It was a complete surprise when I tried searching for those specifics that Yawa's name came up. My mom - Lydia and I are now sponsoring Lydia Yawa, and are excited to find out more about her and the community she lives in. Please remember Yawa in your prayers.
thanks for your support,
Chris
