Surprise photo!

A while back, I had to put in an inquiry about a birthday gift I'd sent in September to Vincent, my sponsored boy in Togo through Compassion.  This was just one inquiry in a long line of inquiries that left me quite unhappy with my Compassion experience.

So you can imagine my surprise when I received an email back from Compassion with the listing of what was purchased as well as a photo of Vincent with the items!

Vincent was able to purchase a pair of shoes, clothing, maize, a bowl of beans, rice, vegetable oil, and a 1.5 liter can with just $30!

I also recently received 2 letters from Vincent, so I am hoping that correspondence with him will pick up during the remainder of 2014.
