Message
When I received the GFA Christmas gift catalog this year my heart was smitten by the possibility of giving a whole church building for the saints in Asia. A few weeks went by and I had filed it in my mind not quite knowing how to accomplish this huge goal. Then during a study of James 2, the Lord impressed on my heart to pray about His will for me in working out my faith. One day after crying out wholeheartedly for His answer on exactly what He was doing and what He was calling me to do with Him in the kingdom I received the letter. This letter was a personal invitation from K. P. Yohannan to partner in raising 1000 new church buildings in Asia in 2013. As I read the letter I began to cry because I was so moved by the Holy Spirit to help the new believers and I knew for sure that my Lord was calling me to this task. Now, how to accomplish this huge goal? I shared the letter with my husband and asked for his prayer also. The next morning I opened the GFA catalog again to see where I had first read a out the opportunity to give whole church buildings for only 11,000. Now I noticed an insert on how to create a giving campaign, again I was moved to tears. Nothing is impossible with God! Please join me in prayer and giving for our brothers and sisters who need a permanent house of worship. We are so blessed to have our church building here! Spread the word of their need and our campaign to help. May the Lord richly bless you for your participation in this great work to His glory and honor.
In the Love of Christ,
Deborah
About Church Buildings
Provide a place of worship and permanence
Fellowships of believers are growing across the world, yet many lack a safe, consistent place to meet for worship. Your donation will help GFA construct a church building for one of these congregations who lack the resources to do it on their own.
The average cost to build a church in nations where we serve is $10,000 - $40,000 depending on the capacity and the location. This provides not only a place for worship and discipleship, but is a vital symbol to the community of security and permanence.
