Child sponsorship: Philippine PK gives back

Child sponsorship: Philippine PK gives back

by | 24 Sep 2015

When a woman from Oregon in the U.S. decided in 1995 to sponsor a little girl from the Philippines, she couldn’t possibly know how God would honor that investment. She didn’t know that God would plant a dream in that child’s heart that would bring her from poverty to a life of learning that would one day enable her to become the lead developer for the new nazarene.org website and begin to invest her life in others. Ernalyn Longcop Fausto was selected and her journey began.

Ernalyn was born in a small town in Dulag Leyte in the central Philippines in 1987. At that time, she joined five other siblings and their father, who was a pastor struggling to support his large family. Later two more children joined the family. Often there was nothing to feed their children. Ernalyn’s mother would often call the children to the table and tell them to close their eyes and imagine their favorite food. Then they would thank God for it, drink their glass of water, and go on to their tasks.
