Cows, and the milk they produce, help families grow healthier and more financially secure. A cow’s milk can be consumed, adding nutrients to the family’s diet, or sold, adding to the family’s income. The cow’s manure serves as a fertilizer for farmers, resulting in a better harvest. As cows multiply, so does the financial benefit and the family’s hope.

Water buffalo are powerful animals often used to plow fields. They produce milk for drinking or selling, and their dung can be used as fuel for cooking. Your gift towards a water buffalo could greatly improve a family’s financial situation!

These portly critters bring powerful financial breakthroughs to needy families. Piglets fetch a good price at market, which enables families to buy whatever they need, and adult pigs provide ample meat for selling or eating.

Goats may or may not have been there to greet baby Jesus, but they sure are a great way to show His love to families in need. These animals provide meat and milk, and they can be sold for a good price. Increased income means more money for things like food and blankets, but it also enables families to send their children to school, making a lasting difference in the fight against poverty

Your gift towards chickens can help supplement a family’s income and get them on their feet financially. Hungry families can eat or sell the nutritious eggs, or they can hatch chicks to increase their flock and later have more eggs and chicks to sell. Most importantly, this gift gives each recipient a walking reminder that God sees them and He cares about them.

Jesus Wells provide fresh water year-round, protecting communities from waterborne illnesses and sparing women and children from spending hours searching for water sources. Obtaining clean water is also vital for practicing safe hygiene and for supporting healthy immune systems, both of which prevent the spread of diseases.

Many impoverished women lack education, and this limits their job opportunities. If a woman has lost her husband, or if he doesn’t earn enough, she may be powerless to provide for herself and her children. A sewing machine can allow her to start a productive business and meet her family’s needs.

Many people in the areas we serve do not have clean water, and as a result, they battle waterborne illnesses—or even succumb to death. Made with simple materials, BioSand water filters remove 98% of biological impurities, providing safe water for drinking and cooking for the family and for neighbors, too! The clean water will improve health and hygiene and will give peace of mind—all of which are expressions of Christ’s care.

Roofs made of thatch are a common sight across Africa and Asia, but they don’t offer good protection from annual monsoon rains, which means families must spend precious resources repairing or replacing their possessions. These lightweight, sturdy tin roofs give needy families a safe, dry place to call home.

Giving to medical ministry can help provide free medical care and health education to people who are suffering—and even dying—from treatable ailments. One medical camp can serve 200 to 1,000 people, meaning countless families can receive lifesaving treatment and health education, all in the name of the Great Physician, Jesus Christ.

Most families in the impoverished areas in which GFA serves have little or no insulation or heating in their homes. Those who sleep on the streets are even more exposed to the cold. For $25, you can provide a blanket large enough to cover a whole family—mom, dad and little ones—with a tangible expression of Christ’s love!

When you give to Compassion Services, you help meet the needs of people in desperate situations. With your gift, GFA missionaries can minister in slums and leprosy colonies, bring medical care to remote communities and provide practical, hope-filled relief supplies after a disaster, all revealing God’s compassion and care to burdened and broken individuals.

“[GFA World] has a rich legacy of being responsive to humanitarian crises, doing these initiatives in various parts of the country. [We] hope to make a difference to the vulnerable and marginalized and hope they overcome these unprecedented circumstances.” —Laini, a national missionary

Malaria is transmitted through the bite of an infected mosquito. Children and infants are particularly susceptible. Mosquito nets save lives and offer a restful night’s sleep, free from the sting of disease-laden mosquitoes.

More than a billion people worldwide have no choice but to go to the bathroom out in the open, which poses many risks, especially for women and girls who venture into open fields under the cover of darkness. Private outdoor toilets spare families from disease found at communal waste grounds and protect the dignity of men, women and children.

Vocational training classes equip people for occupations such as tailoring or candle making. The classes help people get better jobs so they can break out of the cycle of poverty and provide better lives for themselves and their children.

Alone and unprotected, widows and abandoned children face immense practical and emotional hardships. But the Body of Christ can offer support and hope. When you give to help widows and abandoned children, you can provide them with things like food, shelter, income-generating gifts, dignity and God’s compassion.

When women learn to read, they can avoid harmful labor contracts, understand warning labels and avoid being cheated at the marketplace. GFA World supports literacy classes that teach women how to read and write. After they graduate from these literacy classes, the women are also able to read God’s Word and grow in their relationship with Him. Your gift towards literacy enables women to protect themselves and keep their families healthy while also equipping them to draw closer to God.

A motorcycle enables a pastor to serve distant fellowships, giving people the leadership, counsel and prayer they need to grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

You can provide a motorcycle for only $1,300, or you can help share the cost with your gift of $130.

Bicycles help national missionaries save time, energy and transportation expenses, dramatically increasing their ability to minister. These sturdy bicycles enable national missionaries to respond quickly to people asking for prayer and to carry the news of Christ farther and faster.

The mission of GFA World is to establish churches where there are none. As people in remote areas come to know the Lord, their growing congregations often lack a permanent structure to use for worship services. Your gift helps us to build and repair buildings. Even a gift of $80 can help provide decades of safer worship; with others sharing the cost, a church can be built!

Broadcasting provides the opportunity for communities to learn about the love of Christ through radio programming, social media platforms and other key internet-communication channels. Through these avenues, people across Asia—and even beyond—can discover powerful truths in God’s Word, even if they can’t read.

Many believers in areas we serve are first-generation believers who grew up knowing nothing of God’s ways, and they’re hungry for His Word. Your donation helps give people a copy of God’s Word, enabling them to grow in their knowledge of God and walk more closely with Him.

For many people in remote areas, a piece of Gospel literature is the first step in their journey of knowing Jesus. Oftentimes, Gospel literature will be read aloud to others who are illiterate or passed on to someone else who will read it and pass it on to yet another person.

Harsh winters force many people indoors, hindering villagers from finding jobs and limiting pastors’ ability to minister. Winter clothing packets help GFA missionaries stay healthy and able to minister during cold seasons. Winter clothing distributed to the poor protects the vulnerable—especially children—from freezing cold.

Depending on the region, a winter clothing packet may include:

• A Blanket
• A Sweater
• A Jacket
• Other Warm Items

For nearly 40 years, behind-the-scenes missionaries have served in GFA World’s administrative offices as a crucial link between the mission field and the Western Church. They work hard to communicate with GFA supporters in their country in order to raise resources for the field.

When you stand with behind-the-scenes missionaries, you enable them to continue in their role while providing the field with prayer and the financial support needed for ministry.

Children in developing countries all over the world, like their parents before them, are trapped in a cycle of poverty. They lack access to tools that would break the cycle and change things for themselves and future generations.

But Child Sponsorship helps free these children from the cycle of poverty, and through our community development approach, it changes their families and communities, too! Together we can fulfill Christ’s command to care for and love children in poverty.

National missionaries bring words of life and hope to people in places where Christ’s love has never been shared. They do so by:

• Understanding the communities they serve.
• Living sacrificially so others can find grace and new life in Jesus.
• Filling an integral role in distributing gifts.
• Providing immediate aid to communities experiencing crisis.
• Freely offering prayer and counsel to gift recipients and their communities.

When you support the National Missionary program, you enable missionaries to serve full time, resulting in lives changed for eternity.

Women missionaries courageously serve in harsh areas to bring hope to some of the most downtrodden people, especially women and children. Their ministry can take a variety of forms, such as literacy training, prayer, counseling, discipleship for women, and news of hope for all who hunger for true love.

By sponsoring a woman missionary, you’ll enable them to minister to those forgotten by much of society.
