We invite you to join Compassion International on a soul-enriching trip to El Salvador! You and a group of fellow sponsors will get an inside look at how God is using the local church to change the lives of children living in poverty.

An Unforgettable Compassion Experience

An Unforgettable Compassion Experience

You’ve seen the pictures. You’ve written the letters. But now you’re ready for something more.

Compassion sponsor trips allow you to literally step into your child’s world. On a sponsor trip you will explore your child’s home country — eat the food she eats, play the games he/she plays. And to top it all off, you will get to give your sponsored child a hug and deliver that next letter in person! 

What’s more, you’ll see for yourself how hope in partnership with the local church changes a community. You’ll witness God’s love being poured out, and you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how your ministry to a child is bringing greater faith, ability and dignity to an entire community as a result.
