Gift 10: Transform the lives of persecuted believers through socio-economic projects

Description

Being a persecuted believer can be especially challenging in countries where they’re not in the majority or where they live in areas where they’re the only Christians.

That is why praying for and supporting persecuted believers is so vital. Every prayer and gift helps our family, and God has promised: “God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.”
Hebrews 6:10 (ESV)

When believers are cut off from community resources or denied jobs, so they’re unable to take care of their families, your support makes a difference. Or when they can’t read the Bible because they’re not able to read and write, your love is the biggest blessing.

Transform the lives of persecuted believers through socio-economic projects such as teaching a believer to read and write, helping them start a business project or equipping them with vocational and skills training when you give a gift today.

R400 could teach one persecuted believer how to read and write.
R605 could help one believer start a business project to support their family.
R1 205 could equip one believer with practical skills through vocational and skills training (e.g., woodwork or beautician).
