How often?

Every year, our National Missionaries distribute thousands of life-changing gifts to families in need. Income-generating gifts such as sewing machines and fishing nets can empower families to break the cycle of poverty and give their children a better future her practical gifts like warm blankets and mosquito nets meet tangible needs and help protect the bearer from sickness.

Each gift is given in Christ’s name, with His love and compassion, and can have a far-reaching impact in people’s lives.
