Dreaming Again on the Island of Timor

teacher with her class

Families don't dare to dream in most remote areas of the island of Timor in Indonesia. Poverty is generational — it’s handed down from mother to daughter, from father to son. People lack food, clean water, education and medical services. Even if these things were available, few would be able to afford them.

But the picture is changing now.

In 2023, Compassion Indonesia began strategically reaching these remote areas to bring God’s hope to children and families left desperate by poverty. Read about two villages being transformed as children are released from poverty in Jesus’ name.

Meet 5-Year-Old Rambu

Rambu offering to share

Rambu lives in Kembara, Indonesia, with her mom, dad and two sisters. As a truck driver, Rambu’s father does his best to provide for the family, transporting building materials to work sites. But he earns very little, so the family struggles to get what they need. When Rambu developed an eye condition that impaired her ability to see and caused her to scratch and rub her eyes constantly, her family feared she’d have no future.

After her church partnered with Compassion and she was welcomed into the program, hope for her sight returned. Thanks to the support she now receives, Rambu got medical attention for her eyes and now has glasses to help her see. She’s attending school, receiving proper nutrition and regular medical checkups, and she’s been introduced to God’s great love for her. Her family is overjoyed for her future.

Pray for the Diverse Country of Indonesia

 

Provision

Poverty is more prevalent in rural areas of Indonesia like Taebone. Pray that God would provide for the needs of families in these rural areas and for the Church’s growth even as Compassion expands into these regions to reach more children.

Praise

Praise God that Rambu was able to receive the medical care she needed because her Compassion center helped her parents cover the cost of eye treatments and glasses.

Gospel

While Christianity is the second-largest practiced religion in Indonesia, the Indonesian Church has faced violence and conflict in the past. Pray for continued tolerance of religious freedom in the government and for hearts to be open to the gospel.

Health

Pray that more children like those in Taebone would receive needed medical attention, checkups and medicines to reverse the trend of early mortality.

Protection

Pray for protection from extreme weather.

Growth

Pray that more churches will partner with Compassion and that more children in Indonesia will be welcomed to receive support and experience the gospel of Christ.
