errmm... but according to website, it will do Evangelism
if necessary. So isn't that not good for people from other
faith?

fyi, I'm one of the sponsor too. I sponsor a child
from Mongolia... will snap pic here soon....

Even if they do evangelist to those ppl, I don't see any harm done.
As long as what they teach is to make the person a better person so why not right.
And I'm sure the child will have a say in whether to accept Christianity or not.

Melon, how do you pay?
By bank draft, cheque of credit card?

I want to sponsor a child but dunno which payment to choose.
If by credit card will it be safe?
Worried about this but it's the easiest form of payment.

hi,i was just reading through the thread and read about u guys noble deeds...hehe i'm still a student and not financially capable to sponsor one yet.....the reason i'm posting is to chip in my 2 cents on the presents u all are getting for ur children...why dont u guys consider getting them stationery?? like pencils, erasers or even crayons...the best will be able to get the a set of stationery...like give them 1 beautifully wrapped basket and inside the basket there will be 2 dozens of pencils, half a dozen of erasers (since they are easy to get lost..lol) , 1 box of crayons, 1 box of colour pencils, sharpener, a stack of writing paper, and 2-3 of the kids colouring books and even 1 thick story book compilation of loads of the kids stories or find those story books with more pictures for those that are younger, depending on the age of your kid...all these stuff wouldnt cost much i believe,less than rm50 depending on quality but would definitely mean alot for the kids and can last for a long time (2 dozens of pencils ^^)...lol sorry for being nosey ^^ just my 2 cents

hey, that's also a good idea...
any suggestions are welcome i'm sure.. smile.gif
