At Next Level, our mission is to love Jesus, love people, and make a difference. We believe that Jesus’ love has changed us for the better and we want to share His love with others. To help us do that, we partner with various organizations in the community.
This month, our church has the opportunity to make a massive difference in the lives of children. We are partnering with Compassion International to help sponsor children in Peru.
Compassion International shares the hope of the gospel in word and action, releasing children from poverty in Jesus’ name. They care for vulnerable children — mind, body and soul — with programs delivered through local churches in their communities. Compassion partners with and works through local churches in 29 countries to help love, support, and protect vulnerable children.
The primary way Compassion accomplishes this is through child sponsorship. When you sponsor a child, you donate to them monthly, but it is so much more. Sponsorship provides a child with:
- An introduction to the gospel
- Regular medical checkups and necessary care
- Malnutrition monitoring and intervention
- Education assistance and skills training
- Protection from abuse and exploitation
- Disaster relief when crises strike
You also have the opportunity to communicate with your child and begin a relationship with them. For more info on child sponsorship through Compassion, visit https://www.compassion.com/sponsor-a-child/about/.
Our goal is to sponsor 100 children from Peru. All 100 children are from the Chota area. This means that while you are making a difference in your sponsored child’s life, others from Next Level are doing the same. Collectively, we are making a difference in the entire area. Talk about an amazing opportunity! To sign up to sponsor a child, visit the Compassion table in the lobby on any Sunday in September. Let’s see all 100 children sponsored and make a difference in Chota, Peru!

Ongoing Partnerships
THRIVE is committed to assisting peninsula individuals and families through difficult times. They provide emergency financial aid to those who are facing eviction or utility cut-offs. But THRIVE’s aid goes beyond just paying a bill. They desire to see their clients become financially independent. To help people accomplish this, THRIVE offers financial coaching free of charge and every person seeking assistance from THRIVE must meet with a financial coach at least once. In addition to assisting financially, THRIVE offers emergency food assistance through their food pantry.
Because of your generosity, we are able to financially support THRIVE on a monthly basis. Visit https://www.thrivepeninsula.org/ to learn more about THRIVE and how you can get involved.
