GUARDIAN ANGELS

Guardian Angel’s are people who(‘s):

• Have a strong passion to live as the hands and feet of Jesus

• Are looking for new ways to exercise their faith and invite others to do the same according to Matthew 25:35, “For I was hungry, and you fed me.  I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home.”

• Hearts break for what breaks our Father’s heart like the social injustice that our Romanian kids live in every day

• Want to put their love into action to help change the lives of at-risk children now and for generations to come

• Want to help give at-risk children a hope and a future that wouldn’t be possible without our intervention

• Desire to respond to Jesus’ invitation to help the least of these and extend that invitation to others

• To connect:  with like hearted people
• To pray:  for the children we minister to and ACF as a whole
• To advocate:  so others can develop a transformational relationship with a child

The Guardian Angel program connects a community of passionate ACF supporters with others who believe strongly in it’s mission and ministry. It allows them to belong to something bigger than themselves by praying for the specific needs of ACF and advocating for our kids through sharing their child sponsorship story, volunteering at our events, taking the lead in their churches for aid collection, and possibly leading or going on mission trips.

By being a Guardian Angel they are truly walking out their faith and putting into practice our ministry’s foundational Bible verse Isaiah 61:1 which says, “The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners.”
