Child Sponsorship partners families and individuals from the U.S. with children in Mexico and creates blessings on both sides of the border. Families in the Burgos region experience God’s love in very practical and helpful ways from their sponsors. Sponsors, in turn, are able to know exactly who is receiving their help and develop relationships with those they are sponsoring. It is the hope of Burgos Missions that these relationships continue for a lifetime. Though the actual town of Burgos only has about 1,000 inhabitants, there are hundreds of families living in the hills of the region in smaller “ranchitos”. Most of the sponsored children are from these very poor communities. The Sponsor’s monthly donation provides for the purchase of designated items which are distributed to the sponsored child. The children know these items have been provided by their Sponsor Family and receive pictures and information about the Sponsor Family. Sponsors receive a photo of their child (updated each year), biographical information, correspondence from the child (about four times a year), and the opportunity to return correspondence. Trips can be planned to meet the child and his/her family. This year, sponsored children receive: January – blanket February – shoes March – clothes April – food May – toiletries June – Spanish kid’s Bible July – school supplies August – school uniform September – shoes October – long-sleeved top & jeans November – coat or jacket December – Christmas gift Burgos Missions not only strives to serve the physical needs of these children and their families, but their spiritual needs as well. Through other programs, the mission team has developed relationships with the children available to be sponsored. Therefore, Sponsors can be sure that the children are also learning about faith in Christ and are involved in Christian education.
