2013 COP Sunday

Rescue

As the Church of God child sponsorship ministry, Children of Promise is passionate about helping children in need globally. Since our inception in 1992, more than 10,000 children have received direct assistance in the areas of food, education, basic health care, and spiritual nurture and development. We are so grateful for the many sponsors, donors, supporters, and friends who make this ministry in 27 countries possible.

Four years ago, Children of Promise launched COP Sunday as a primary means of sponsoring children in Churches of God in the United States and some foreign countries. Over the next three years, Children of Promise is emphasizing three components in changing the lives of children: RESCUE, RESTORE and RELEASE.

This year we are focusing on RESCUE which, according to the dictionary, means: to remove somebody from danger; to save something – prevent something from being discarded, rejected, or put out of operation; and provision of help – an instance of helping somebody in an awkward or difficult situation. This describes part of the mission of Children of Promise.

The annual COP Sunday event intends to raise awareness within the Church of God that between 500 – 750 children are waiting to be rescued from the death grip of extreme poverty. Without our help, many of these children will not make it to adulthood alive.

The television show, “Wipe Out”, can be a visual reminder of what happens to children who live in extreme poverty. Of course, the individuals appearing on “Wipe Out” are competing for a cash prize and while they may get knocked down over and over, these people have plenty to eat and a warm space to lie down at nighttime. Children in the grip of extreme poverty are not likely able to “get up” when they are “wiped out” from malaria, HIV/AIDS, malnutrition, and any number of other diseases. These children need to be rescued. The process is simple. The impact is great. Will you help?

We welcome you and your church family to make the entire month of September an emphasis on God’s call upon us to minister to the poor, the orphaned, and those without hope. COP Sunday – a day of child sponsorship, is September 29, 2013. If another Sunday, in September or otherwise, fits your church’s needs better, go for it. The point is to rescue children. We can help you do that.

Downloads of all the free materials for your church are on the COP Sunday page. Feel free to use anything you find here. Call us toll free, 800.848.2464 ext. 2155, with any questions you may have.
