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 />

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 />
