20%.

That’s how many kids in our new Iraqi-Kurdistan sponsorship program have a sponsor right now.

That means 80% are still waiting.

These are real children whose families are rebuilding in a region that’s been through more than most of us will ever understand.

They don’t need your pity. They need your provision.

$49 a month. That’s the gap between a child who is seen and a child who is still waiting.

We didn’t expand to Iraqi-Kurdistan because it was easy. We expanded because the need is real and the door is open right now. Doors like this don’t stay open forever.

For years, Light A Candle has been on the ground in Iraqi Kurdistan — serving, building, and staying when it would have been easier to leave.

We know these villages. We know these families. We’ve earned the right to be there.

And now we’re ready to go deeper.

We are officially launching child sponsorship in Iraqi Kurdistan!!

For $49 a month, you sponsor a child living in a local village in one of the most spiritually significant and underserved regions on earth.

Your sponsorship isn’t a transaction. It’s a long-term commitment to a child who lives in a place where very few people choose to show up.

We’ve already done the groundwork. We have the relationships. We have the trust.

What we need now are sponsors willing to say: this child is worth $49 a month of my life.

If that’s you — sponsorship is open now. Click below to meet a child in Iraqi Kurdistan waiting for a sponsor.

Every year, thousands of women in the Philippines are bought and sold.

These are real women who have names, families, hopes, and dreams. And they deserve to be free.

We run short-term missions trips to the Philippines to reach women trapped in the s*x trade. To bring presence, the gospel, and connection.

There are still spots open on our upcoming trip. Comment SEND ME to be part of rescuing these women out of bo***ge.

1,200 children in India wake up today knowing someone in the world chose them. 🌍

Today is International Children’s Day.

One of the best ways to celebrate? Become the reason a child gets a hot meal, medical care, and an education this year.

Sponsoring a child through Light A Candle is $49/month.

That’s less than a tank of gas. And it changes everything for a child who has nothing.

Most people spend their whole life trying to be comfortable.

A few decide that’s not enough.

We’re taking teams to places most people won’t go.

To people who have never once heard the name of Jesus. Billions of them. Waiting.

There’s still room on our next trip.

There are children in remote villages in India who wake up every morning without knowing if someone on the other side of the world cares whether they exist.

Over 1,200 of them now know someone does.

But there are still children waiting to be seen. Waiting to be sponsored. Waiting for someone to say — you are not forgotten.

$49 a month. Education. Nutrition. The knowledge that they matter.

This is the Great Commission with skin on it. You don’t have to board a plane. You just have to say yes.

Visit www.lightacandle.global/sponsor to change a child’s life today.

Our sponsor children come from the most remote parts of India. Most have been rescued from a life of illegal child labor or forced temple prostitution.
