“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
580 children are waiting.
0 have been sponsored.
Raise Them Up begins today. Every one of those 580 children is enrolled at a Commissioned International school in Honduras or Nicaragua, and every one of them is waiting for someone on this side of the border to say yes. Forty eight dollars a month sponsors one of them for a full academic year. Tuition, curriculum, a Bible, a daily meal, and a teacher who has been trained to disciple them.
Sponsor a Child
There are 580 children on the other side of this page. They are in Honduras and Nicaragua, and every morning they walk toward a classroom that may or may not have a seat for them this year.
For more than twenty years, our schools have been more than schools. They are the place a child is first told that they are made in the image of God, that they can read, that they are loved by a Father who has not forgotten them. What happens in those classrooms shapes what a generation believes about God, about themselves, and about their neighbor.
We are asking you to sponsor one of them. Not as a program. As a person. Forty eight dollars a month puts one student in a seat for a full year, with a Bible in their hands, a meal in their stomach, and a teacher who has been trained to disciple them.
If the Lord is nudging you, don't set this page aside. Pick a child. We will take it from there.
For more than two decades, Commissioned International has built and operated Christ-centered schools in the countries where we serve. These are not programs. They are places, with classrooms, with teachers who show up every morning, with children who arrive hungry for both breakfast and the gospel.
Nestled in Guaimaca, GSCA is a bilingual Christian academy where the school day begins with prayer and ends with children who can name the God who made them. Families walk their students through the gate every morning knowing their child will be taught to read, to think, and to know Christ.
MOCS sits at the heart of a growing community in Nicaragua where public education is stretched thin and Christian schooling is scarce. Four hundred students, from kindergarten through secondary, learn under teachers who see their classrooms as pulpits and their students as the next generation of the sent church.
These are students currently waiting for a sponsor at Good Shepherd's and Mount of Olives. Pick a child, commit to their year at $48 a month, and you will receive their photo, their letters, and updates from their teacher through the school year.
Sponsorship is not a line item on a budget. It is a child walking through a gate at seven in the morning, sitting in a classroom, eating a meal, opening a Bible, and being taught by an adult who knows their name. Here is what your monthly gift makes ordinary for them.
A full academic year at a bilingual Christian school, including uniforms and school supplies.
Every student receives their own Bible and Christ-centered curriculum in every subject.
For many students, the meal served at school is the most reliable meal of their day.
A portion of every sponsorship supports the salaries and training of the teachers who disciple these children.
We are gathering the founding sponsors of Raise Them Up in one room. This is where the campaign begins.
A short film from the GSCA campus in Guaimaca. Morning prayer, first period, the courtyard at recess.
The women and men who show up to those classrooms every morning, and the students who are shaped by them.
