Sharon is one of the sponsored children at Gateway and sweet Alicia shares of the impact sponsorship has had on her!:)
Alicia shares, "What drew me to sponsor Sharon is reading that she wants to be a pastor when she grows up. I thought, "This precious girl has spirit and no 'box' to keep it bound up by! I can't wait to see what the Lord's plans are for her. Whatever His plans include, I know I'll be blessed having her in my life, and I pray she's blessed by having me in hers! People ask me all the time, 'Do you have kids?' My reply used to be, 'No, but I have a cat.' (It's kind of a pet peeve of mine when people refer to their pets as their children or grandchildren. Love them, yes! Try to change their entire species, not so much..lol. Why I got swept into the madness, I'll never know ). I digress. Now, when people ask if I have any kids, I enjoy telling them about child sponsorship through His Love and Sonshine!"

Rachel GuyWhen Rachel Guy was in elementary school, she was fascinated by children in African countries; her heart was particularly drawn to children who had been orphaned. At the age of twelve, the country of Uganda became the focus of Rachel’s interest and concern when a close family friend, Nancy Wellham, invited her to join her on a mission’s trip there. It was on this trip that Rachel visited Gateway Nursery and Primary school and fell in love with the people there. Four years ago, Rachel was shocked when she was invited to start a ministry for the school. With humility and gratitude, she said, “Yes” to this unlikely adventure with God. Archives
