2020 in Review
Dear Friends,
In a rapidly changing world, I am so thankful
we serve an unchanging God who continues
to bring hope during times of despair. While
many will remember 2020 by the impact
COVID-19 had on our world, others will
remember the love, generosity, and help we
showed them in their time of need.
As you look through the pages of this catalog, it is my prayer that you will once
again give generously as you see the joy and hope in the faces of those whose lives
have been impacted. Thank you for your partnership as we continue to show and
share God’s love.

Running Water for the
Living Water: Our Story
Water is essential to life.
An estimated 785 million people
do not have clean water —that’s
nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide.
Many are women and children who
walk long distances to gather contaminated
water for their families
to drink. Access to a sanitary water
source improves childhood health,
education, and work opportunitites
for years to come.
It all began in 2016, when a
group of runners decided to
raise awareness and funds for
clean water. They started a
movement that has grown
to over 200 runners in 2019
alone. Since its beginning,
team members have raised
enough for 120 wells!
You can be a part of the
Running Water journey.
Whether it’s by running,
helping raise funds and
awareness, or becoming an
event sponsor, there is a way for
everyone to get involved! Currently,
we coordinate organized events
in Pennsylvania and Virginia.

David 's Story
“Me and my family had
to leave fast. I was so
scared and I felt like I
was going to die soon.”
-David
In 2014, ISIS attacked David’s home village, forcing his family
to flee for their lives. They had to live in tents for 2 months
while awaiting entry into Jordan. He describes this as a
harrowing season. “I was really angry at God at that time.”

After arriving in Jordan, David was invited to church and became
a follower of Jesus. After being discipled, he served as a
translator and youth leader at GPPD’s partner church in Amman.
4 years later, in 2018, David and his family were finally accepted
by Australia as permanent residents. David now has a job as a community
(social) worker and says, “It feels really good to help more
people.” He is working on a diploma in case management so he can
take his career to the next level and impact more people.
Sponsorship was crucial for David while being prevented
from working as a refugee. “Here in Australia, I can pay $20 for
two meals in a restaurant...But in Jordan, we could almost make $20
worth of food last a month. I want to thank GPPD and everyone I met
who taught me something. Thank God who put you in my way.”

Family on Their
Way to Australia

Nations' Hope Store
All the products in our online
store have been handmade by
women in impoverished areas who
are seeking to provide for their
families or better their futures.
At a Maker’s Event, each lady
learns to create one item in our
store and is paid that day for products
completed. Ladies who attend
regularly have an opportunity to
build skills and transition into their
own small business.
The Nations’ Hope Store is more
than a business endeavor. Our team
builds intentional relationships with
the women and offers opportunities
for prayer and discipleship.

Women
in many parts of the world
face daily injustices and challenges.
These include the lack of access
to medical care during childbirth,
forced marriage as young as age 12,
and cruelty for becoming a widow.
Together, we can help each woman
realize she is God’s masterpiece.
In U ganda
anda, a bra is much more
than a basic clothing item.
Bras can help protect a young
teen from underage marriage
by avoiding unwanted
attention from older men.

Livesock & Small Business
Building a small business is a sustainable path
out of poverty. When an entrepreneur receives
training or help with startup costs, the impact
grows for years to come. Livestock businesses
are a great choice in rural areas where animal
breeding provides a practical source of food
and supplemental income for families.
Ifonise’s Story
Richardson lives in our Haiti Rèv Home. His
mother, Ifonise, chose to bring him to the Rèv
Home out of love because she was unable to
provide for him. When she wanted to start a
business selling backpacks at a local market,
Global Partners provided enough funds for the
first several backpacks. Today, she continues to
independently grow her business.

Showing God’s love while experiencing another culture
is life changing. See what past Global Partners trip
participants have to say.
Nancy traveled to India with GPPD in
January 2020. She used her photography
experience to provide a stunning
glimpse into what God is doing across
the world. Many of Nancy’s photos are
featured in our catalog and website.
The photos she took impacted many,
but meeting kids in need of sponsors
tugged on Nancy’s own heart.

“Traveling to Haiti with GPPD opened my eyes and my heart to some

these very same people showed me a level of generosity I’ve never
