When the Christian humanitarian organization Compassion International sent Doug LeBlanc and me to India and South Korea in 1992, it was for the purpose of photographing and writing about children who were, or had been, sponsored through that organization. We met children who were still in the program, and also some young adults who were launched in life and able to move forward on their own thanks to the education they had received.
Two of the most extensive and well-known sponsoring ministries are Compassion International and World Vision. Helping a child escape poverty and worse through a sponsorship that provides food, clothing, and education is a very worthwhile thing to do, and Louise and I have been honored to do it for many years. We invite you to check out these ministries and consider sponsoring a child yourself. Click on the links to go to each organization's web site.

Soli Gloria Deo -- For the glory of God alone
My book, Backroads and Byways of Georgia, is now out of print, although copies are apparently still available from Amazon, and possibly other sources. The second edition is now in the editing stage and is scheduled to be released on December 6th.
