Celebrating a Milestone: 10th Great Commandment Workshop in Jaipur, India
On May 20th, 2025, something remarkable happened in the heart of Jaipur. Despite the scorching 48°C (118°F) heat, 150 passionate individuals gathered for our 10th Great Commandment Workshop (GCW) in India. This workshop marked an important milestone in our Church Mobilization journey, which began in India in 2023 with a vision to inspire and equip the local Church to care for orphans in their own communities.
Held under intense weather conditions, the workshop was nothing short of extraordinary. The dedication of both the attendees and our incredible 15-member crew—who worked tirelessly behind the scenes—made this event a powerful testimony of what’s possible when hearts are committed to God's call.
One of the most moving outcomes of the day was the collection of 125 commitment forms, each representing someone who has decided to take tangible action in response to God's command to love and serve the most vulnerable. For many participants, the workshop was an eye-opening experience. Several attendees shared that they had never understood these concepts before now. They now see that caring for orphans isn’t a distant, complicated mission—it’s a deeply meaningful and surprisingly simple expression of the Gospel.
The power of the Great Commandment—to love God and love our neighbor—was felt throughout the room. As testimonies were shared, lives were changed. Hope was sparked. A quiet revolution is underway, one church at a time, one heart at a time.
We are incredibly grateful for everyone who made this day possible and for all who participated with open hearts and willing hands. Jaipur’s GCW wasn’t just an event—it was a movement taking root. And it’s only the beginning.
Here’s to many more lives transformed and churches awakened to their calling!

Global Orphan Relief (GO) has been serving orphaned children since 2005. We have accomplished this work through local partners in each country that provide oversight and distribution of care through three care initiatives; Home-Based Care, Education, and Nutrition. In 2022, we launched our Church Mobilization Initiative by which we are mobilizing the local church to care for orphan children. Last month, we impacted 20,209 children in seven countries in Africa & Asia within these four initiatives.
Beyond the financial commitment of co-hosting Great Commandment Workshops, this effort is Indigenous, self-propagating, and self-supporting. Our objective is to engage local churches to expand our GO! network, mobilize the church body to serve orphaned children, and advance the Kingdom through demonstrating the Gospel to others. Through these workshops, we are:
Church Mobilization is our newest initiative launched in February 2022. We are currently working with local area churches to co-host Great Commandment Workshops where we bring together multiple subject matter experts to discuss the why and how to serve the poor generally, and orphan children specifically. We track the impact of children served through this through local GO! teams in each country.
We have co-hosted and facilitated thirty-three workshops in Africa & Asia, where we have hosted more than 5,000 ministry leaders. At the conclusion of these workshops, we have been honored to commission more than 4,000 GO! Ambassadors. GO! Ambassadors are those who have received the call to serve orphan children in their communities during these one-day workshops and have made a commitment to serve children in their community. We encourage them in their journey to serve others each month. In addition, we provide additional training and encouragement through our online Great Commandment Academy.
In February 2025, this GO! Ambassador Network served 13,907 orphan children.
