Compassion International


Compassion International is a holistic Christian child development ministry dedicated to addressing the needs of children around the world. More than a relief program, Compassion focuses on the real life needs of children – spiritual, physical, financial, and social – by partnering with local churches in 25 developing countries. 

Opportunities to get involved

Currently, over 1100 Resurrection members and visitors sponsor Compassion children by sending a monthly contribution, letter writing and prayer support.  Resurrection's Compassion International ministry team sponsors informational meetings during the year and a new sponsor sign-up weekend in the fall.

If you are interested in sponsoring a child, learning more about Compassion's ministry or becoming an active member of Resurrection's Compassion Ministry team, please contact Shirley Greenlee at  sgreenlee@kc.rr.com or at (913) 432-7093.

Compassion International Trips

There are also opportunities to travel on an international trip, sponsored by Compassion International to countries where Compassion children live.  For more information, please visit the Compassion Group Tours website.  

"In response to the Great Commission, Compassion International exists as an advocate for children, to release them from their spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enable them to become responsible and fulfilled Christian adults."
