Thankful to Serve

Over the last few months, we have all witnessed people taking a stand for what they believe in. Literally billions of dollars have been spent to express these ideas, and at the end of it all, the country is still divided.

Though there are many great causes in this world, as Christians, we should be united, and focused on expanding the Kingdom of God. This requires intentional evangelism and discipleship.

GI Team members in Ghana (October 2012): 160 souls saved!

While many have heard the Gospel and rejected Christ, there are many who still have not heard.  The primary mission of Global Infusion is to reach the lost in countries and locations where the Gospel is unavailable or not prevalent. We also disciple indigenous believers, so they will have both knowledge and confidence to reach their own people for Christ. Not only that, but our teams regularly tend to the physical needs of the people we work with. This includes providing food for the hungry, treatment and medicine for the sick, clothes for the needy, Godly education for children, Bibles for the new believer, and biblical training materials for those being discipled. Whatever it takes to reach people for Christ through the vision of our contacts on the ground, that is what we do.

We cannot accomplish this vision alone. It requires people interceding for our ministry. It requires people to financially invest in Global Infusion, so we can continue to reach the unreached.

It requires people to fill a variety of positions, whether they are staff, interns, volunteers or team members.

Being involved in foreign mission work comes at a high cost. It requires taking great physical risk as we go into unfamiliar environments. It requires a tremendous emotional cost as we regularly take time away from our families. It requires enduring weeks and months without paychecks, when each of us could be working other jobs. But we do this, “For the love of Christ compels us.” (2 Corinthians 5:14)


I ask you to prayerfully consider investing into Global Infusion, as we continue to touch tens of thousands of lives each year with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
