Merry Christmas World 2009 Is Here!

[Mon, November 02, 2009]

Once again, you can consider the options available that made such a tremendous difference last year.

Offer a gift. Help bring ... hope.

Your gifts do make a difference. The response to last year’s Merry Christmas World! appeal brought incredible encouragement to our missionaries, and hope to hurting people who depend on them.

Bill and Bev Pharand, serving in Guinea, were thrilled to receive $1,000 towards the set-up of a pastor’s home on behalf of a family that had been sleeping on a mat on their concrete floor.

Hector and Ruth Aragon, serving in Guatemala, were thankful for the resources to provide part-time work for impoverished students attending the William Cornelius Vocational Training Centre. Although sponsored, these students were struggling to cover the additional costs of their text books and uniforms.

You may have reviewed the report provided online showing how the $44,000 raised was distributed towards pressing ministry and community needs of more than 20 missionary families and ministries. (Click here to read the full report.) We deeply appreciate your partnership with us and bless the Lord for your faithfulness in responding to the difficult circumstances of people around the world. Once again this Christmas, you can consider the categories that made such a tremendous difference last year. Your donation can make a lasting impact in the life of someone living on the edge of despair.
