3.14 billion people are "unreached" by the gospel
65% of the world live in religiously restricted areas
1.45 billion people in the world live in poverty
In the past three years, the organization I serve has seen nearly a dozen Goers become part of three of our teams helping the least reached follow Jesus. At every step, GoCorps has provided excellent resources to enable effective care and support for each of the young people who were sent out to serve as cross-cultural witnesses of God's love and work of salvation. GoCorps does an excellent job of helping both the workers and the team with whom they will be working with plan for and follow through with the plans towards thriving in the challenge of being globally engaged world Christians. If your son or daughter is considering joining what God is doing to reach the nations for Christ, then know that GoCorps has a multi-year track record of being both missional and mentoring.
Committing to mid-term service opened my eyes to a greater vision for my life and where God was truly leading me. Now, I can move forward in my career in confidence, knowing that I am doing what I am supposed to be doing. I challenge you to consider, ‘what do I really have to lose by going?’ The reality is, you have so much more to lose by not going. You will miss out on God doing amazing things, not only through you, but in your own life.
My wife and I have been so encouraged to see a program such as GoCorps that enables recent college graduates to connect with international missions in a meaningful way immediately after graduation. There are so many obstacles that can prevent young people from engaging in helping a hurting world and sharing the hope of Jesus, but GoCorps has found a way to address many of these barriers. Experiences such as these can be so powerful in forming a Godly and global worldview and finding what God has in mind for the future. Thanks so much for the part you have played in Jonathan’s life!
