Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. James 1:27

Sponsor a VOWS Child today!

 Sponsor a child … When you sponsor a child, you are helping feed, cloth, educate and provide shelter for these wonderful children who are learning about the love of Jesus Christ for them in their troubled world. Your funds do not go to a ministry to assist with administration costs or numerous overhead fees. Instead, every penny goes straight to the orphanage that houses these children. VOWS has direct contact with and has ministered to the people who oversee this orphanage. When you sponsor a child, you will receive newsletters updating you on the children and what God is doing in their area. You will also receive correspondence information where you can write to your child. You will also receive a prayer bracelet with your child’s name to remind you to pray for them daily.
