About this episode
In this episode, Jennie talks with Jonathan Almonte, Manager of Support Engagement for Compassion in the Dominican Republic. Jonathan shares his powerful story, not just about growing up in poverty, but the spiritual warfare and demonic worship often tied to it. He speaks about how the local church, with the support of Compassion, transformed his life and the lives of many others in his community. Jonathan emphasizes that sponsorship is not just a transactional act—it’s bigger than that. The children and families supported by Compassion need of more than just material resources; they are in need of Jesus. Jonathan also opens up about emotional poverty and how something as simple as letters from his sponsor had a life-changing impact on him. This is a story of hope, faith, and the incredible work God is doing through Compassion and the local church. Join us in partnership with Compassion to release children from Poverty.
