From the poor of Africa's Ivory Coast as the son of missionaries to President and CEO of Compassion International, Dr. Wess Stafford has maintained one simple belief: God's children are priceless resources. To that end, Wess leads Compassion's efforts to break the cycle of poverty for children everywhere. Earning degrees from Moody Bible Institute, Biola University, Wheaton College, and a doctorate from Michigan State University, Wess is an internationally recognized advocate for children. His latest book, Just A Minute, talks about how you can change the world one child at a time. Wess lives on a small ranch near Colorado Springs, Colorado, with his wife, Donna, who was a Compassion sponsor even before she met Wess! They have two daughters, Jenny and Katie - the two children in the world for whom Wess is the greatest advocate of all.
