EDIT: Marlon has been sponsored! Click to see other children in need of sponsors.

Meet Marlon, a 15-year old boy in El Salvador, who has been waiting for over six months for a sponsor. For $32/month & through your letters, you can show God’s love to him via Compassion International. Is God prompting you to sponsor Marlon?

Marlon lives with his father and his mother. At home, duties include gardening, making beds and running errands. His father is sometimes employed as a laborer and his mother maintains the home. There are 2 children in the family.

As part of Compassion’s ministry, Marlon participates in church activities and Bible class. He is also in middle school where his performance is average. Soccer, bicycling and playing group games are his favorite activities.

Please remember Marlon in your prayers. Your love and support will help him to receive the assistance he needs to grow and develop. ( from Compassion.com)

Sponsor Marlon now, or search for other children in need.

Note: I am NOT affliated with Compassion International, except through sponsoring a child myself, and hoping to see more sponsored in Jesus’ name! )

Just wondering if the people of San Salvador speak Spanish, or a “Salvadoran Spanish”.

@Lee: I’m not sure about that myself. I did find this via Wikitravel: http://wikitravel.org/en/El_Salvador#Talk
