The Gift of Hope: Hearing Jesus Through Transformation

In this episode of the Hearing Jesus podcast, Rachael Groll sits down with Catherine Mota to share her inspiring journey from childhood poverty in the Dominican Republic to a life of hope and purpose. Catherine reflects on growing up without her biological mother and the challenges she faced, and she highlights how the Compassion sponsorship program provided the love, support, and opportunities that transformed her future. Listeners will hear how sponsorship doesn’t just meet immediate needs—it creates a lasting impact, shaping a child’s life, faith, and potential. Catherine’s story is a powerful reminder of God’s provision, the ripple effect of love, and the hope that comes when communities invest in the lives of children.
