saying goodbye to a friend we haven't met

For many years our family has supported a young Ugandan through World Vision. We were recently notified that World Vision is ending its program relationship with Daniel’s village. It was a hard message because through the years we’ve been sending letter, cards, and little finger puppets we bought or made for him. We’ve watched him grow from a little boy to a handsome young man. I wish we could have actually met him in person.

As we write our farewell to him, we promise to continue to pray for him – to live up to his biblical namesake. May he always be safe, love the Lord, and dare to be a Daniel.
