The Living Link program is the heart <strong>of</strong> the Global Missions ministry partnership<br />
with the church. This partnership enables <strong>Church</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong> missionaries to go into the<br />
world to proclaim the good news <strong>of</strong> Jesus Christ.<br />
The Project Link program enables donor congregations and individuals to connect<br />

institutions and approved capital projects, which carry a 4 percent support fee. These<br />
excepted projects are marked with an asterisks (*) throughout the <strong>Gift</strong>-<strong>Giving</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

budget <strong>of</strong> more than $10,000 annually. Capital projects are new building projects with<br />
project budgets <strong>of</strong> $50,000 or more that have a beginning and ending timeline date.<br />
The goal <strong>of</strong> Global Missions is to have every <strong>Church</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong> congregation in the<br />
