Follow Me

“Follow Me.”

What does this mean to you? Do you follow Jesus?

I do not believe that this means the same thing for everyone, and one example provided in scripture meant that the young man was to sell everything!

Pure Religion | Great Commandment

The history of our experience with the Great Commandment goes back many years in our ministry. In fact, you might say that we have been a Great Commandment ministry from our beginnings as we have setout to serve orphan children.

In consideration of the Great Commandment, I would implore you to listen to God as to how He might have you respond to love your neighbor.

Learn, Seek, Help, Defend, & Fight (Isa 1:17)

Pure Religion | Partnership

Our partners in the field and here at home are the fuel that propels us to advance the cause of orphans.

A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken. -Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NLT)

Church Mobilization 2.0

Church Mobilization 2.0

To date we have co-hosted 20 Great Commandment Workshops in Asia, Kenya, and Zambia in our effort to mobilize the local church to serve orphan children in their communities. A total of 3,699 ministry leaders have attended one of these workshops.

Results have mostly exceeded expectations. We have been encouraged by the attendees, and then again as we follow-up with GO! Ambassadors to monitor their progress. The question that I have been asking since earlier this year, is what does Church Mobilization 2.0 look like?

August Need

We were able to reach 5,860 orphan children with some level of care or impact in June. These children were served in Asia, Ethiopia, Kenya, South Sudan, and Zambia through our field partners and GO! Ambassador Network. We have experienced a 102% growth in the number of children impacted across our initiatives over 2022 (January-June).

August is typically our low point for resources during the year, but the needs of children continue.

Orphans & Widows Pakistan | July Support Distribution

Distribution of food and other aid occurred last month in Punjab for eleven widow-led households, providing for forty orphan children.

As part of our Orphans & Widows partnership in Pakistan, these families receive aid needed to stay together in one household, rather than the children being separated from their mother and placed in an orphanage or in some other distant relative’s home. These families experience challenges that are beyond our understanding.

July Need

We impacted 5,336 orphan children around the world in May with 108% growth in the number of children impacted across our initiatives over 2022.

Our growth has been moderated over the last several months based on resource limitations, but we continue to serve children efficiently while not neglecting their needs. We would appreciate your prayerful consideration to aid these precious children through the end of 2023.

June Need

We impacted 5,672 orphan children around the world in April with 184% growth in the number of children served across our initiatives over 2022.

This dramatic growth continues to provide resource challenges for our seventeen mission projects around the world. We have depleted our cash reserves this month to a point that if we do not receive significant funding over the next two weeks, we will have to reduce or terminate care for up to 2,600 children in the next 30-days. The resources we have today will not be enough to get us through the month of June.

We would appreciate your prayerful consideration to aid these precious children.
