2009 Holiday Ministry Support
October 28th, 2009 by Peggy in MinistryEach Christmas Season, NewLife Industries chooses a ministry or ministries to receive a percentage of the proceeds from sales during the months of October, November, and December. This year, we have chosen two small ministries, one local and the other international, that serve Jesus Christ and the Kingdom in similar, yet different, ways. We hope you will take the time to learn more about them.

Go International is a Christian mission organization that works in 15 different countries around the world to help plant churches where there are none and share the gospel with people who don’t know Jesus. Where churches have already been established, GO International trains pastors and Christian workers so that they can reach their villages for Christ. In many countries, children need the most help, so they focus on the feeding and care of children living in extreme poverty. They also try to help poor families out of poverty by providing goats, chickens, or even water buffalo that they can raise into their own herd to provide food and income. While serving in the name of Jesus, people are invited to accept Him as savior. In 2010, GO International will take more than 20 mission work teams from all over the US to serve in India, Africa, Russia, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay and many other places for God-sized adventure!
