Dear Friend,<br />

In John 5:17 Jesus said, “My Father has been<br />

working until now, and I have been working.”<br />

As you open the pages of this <strong>Gift</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong>,<br />

my prayer is that you will rejoice to see how<br />

God is actively moving around the world. It’s<br />

incredible to realize that while God is working,<br />

He graciously invites us to join Him in His great<br />

plan of redemption!<br />

Almost all the projects listed in this catalog directly impact the lives of individuals who<br />

are in desperate need of God’s love and grace. As you generously pray and give, our<br />

Associates, National <strong>Partners</strong>, and short-term team members are not only able to<br />

meet basic needs, but are given greater opportunities to share the life-transforming<br />

message of Jesus to those without hope!<br />

Thank you for your partnership in the Gospel,<br />

For Children<br />

Children Golf Tournament<br />

is held in central Virginia.<br />

The<br />

Go Center<br />

GO Center<br />

$Any - Project #44<br />

In May <strong>2023</strong>, we purchased a<br />

10,000 square foot facility in<br />

Roanoke, Virginia. We praise<br />

God that we were able to<br />

purchase the facility debt-free<br />

and for only $275k! By July, we<br />

had completed the office and<br />

moved to the new location.<br />

Phase 2, renovating the entire<br />

facility, has now begun! Our<br />

goal is for every square inch of<br />

this space to point people to<br />

God’s heart for the nations.<br />

The GO (<strong>Global</strong> Outreach) Center will be used for fundraising events, <strong>Global</strong> Challenge<br />

weekends, and short-term trip training. It will house an interactive walkthrough exhibit<br />

called “<strong>Global</strong> Adventure,” where people of all ages can get a glimpse of the great needs<br />

around the world and how they can make a difference. We will also have a Rèv Café and<br />

Nations Hope Store onsite.<br />

Furthermore, the GO Center will facilitate prayer, discipleship, and mobilization of<br />

churches and individuals to be involved in the Great Commission.<br />

Consider joining us in this ambitious journey by giving monthly for one year. If 250 families<br />

commit to give $100 monthly for the next year, we will meet our goal! As phase 3 begins<br />

and we start to put the finishing touches on the GO Center,we will seek the help of artists<br />

and those skilled in fabrication and construction to<br />

bring their creative touches! Contact us<br />

if you would like to use your skills<br />

to spread awareness of God’s<br />

great plan for all nations<br />

to know Him.<br />
