Releasing children from poverty in Jesus' name.
About us
Compassion International is a Christian child development ministry aimed at releasing children from spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty in Jesus’ name. We are church-based: Compassion believes the Church is God’s chosen instrument to bring hope to a hurting world. We believe the strategic placement of local churches makes them best suited to address the holistic needs of the children in their communities. And only they can effectively deliver the Jesus-based teaching and whole-life care that children in poverty deserve. Compassion partners with 8,000+ churches in 25 countries around the world to deliver our holistic child development program. We are child-focused: Compassion’s ministry is focused on the individual child and his/her development. We offer this assistance irrespective of caste, creed, class or religion. At Compassion, we believe entire communities will feel the positive impact of our presence because what happens in the life of a child ripples throughout his or her environment. We are Christ-centered: Jesus is the core of our ministry and his life and teachings shape our programs. They reflect the spiritual commitments of our staff. And they guide how we love people, respect communities and cooperate with nations. We are committed to integrity: We hold ourselves to the highest professional and biblical principles in all aspects of our ministry and maintain the highest industry standards for our allocation of funds.

Read/Listen to Santiago “Jimmy” Mellado on "Vision" in Christian Leadership Alliance's Outcomes magazine: "Ministries, and organizations of any kind, don’t just drift into delivering outcomes and accomplishing their mission. That’s where the courage and influence of leadership to create and communicate a picture of the future that inspires passion in your team comes into play." https://lnkd.in/eZxiVFmj

His mother’s cries outside of his hospital room. Excruciating pain and the heavy weight of loneliness. The words, “you may not make it,” ringing in his ears. This was Ricardo’s reality until the local church stepped in. Watch Ricardo escape death with his Heavenly Father, his local church and his family by his side.

Even if you haven't wondered what it would look like, aren't you glad you got to see it?! 🥰 #SlowMotion #Photography

If we’ve enjoyed any success at all, it can be attributed to simple acts of love. Without love, it is all for naught. It’s love that tells a child born into unimaginable and unacceptable poverty that they are not alone, they’re not invisible. It is love that tells a child that an endlessly merciful and all-powerful God knows their name and has a beautiful plan for their life.
