From Despair to Dignity: Roza’s Journey of Hope

Meet Roza Birara, a 17 year old in Ethiopia. She is currently in grade 8, and living with her mother and siblings. This would not be possible without support from Global Orphan Relief.

2024 Reach 10/40 Mission Deployment

2024 Reach 10/40 Mission. I am ramping up preparation for a return to Asia for our Reach 10/40 Mission. I am eager to meet with the Pastors there that have been instrumental in our Church Mobilization Initiative roll-out. 

This mission should result in 325 GO! Ambassadors being commissioned, which will eventually benefit 1,973 orphan children. We can project these expectations based on data that we have collected on the five workshops conducted in Asia thus far over the last year.

In the field, we impacted a record number of children with 16,196 impacted in December, which was made possible by the hard work of thirteen Field Partners who facilitated work in sixteen distinct Mission Projects in six countries.

Christmas Blessing

Eighteen years ago, we were preparing to deploy our family to Juarez, Mexico, for our very first international mission. We were busy gathering gifts for 20 children that year along with some other supplies for an orphanage located there.

Creating the Future

Together, what we are really doing is creating the future, and this is not just any future, but a better future for all. You see, orphan children are not the only ones to be blessed by this work. The result is that each of us is encouraged by others in our movement.

The way forward is a posture of abundance and not of scarcity.
