Love is the root of missions; sacrifice is the fruit of missions.

what is
project impact?
Project Impact is our fund for giving above and beyond
the tithe and is used to provide resources that help us
accelerate the gospel further and faster. This fund is used
to support global projects, church expansion, and local
outreach. Each year, we prayerfully seek God’s direction for
how He wants GT Church to make an impact in His Kingdom
and invest our financial efforts accordingly. Giving to Project
Impact is one way that you can help
GT Church share the love of Jesus across
the street and around the world!

others
and sisters,
Thanks be to our Lord and Savior
for His mercies are new every
morning!
We read in the Scriptures that
Jesus left us with a reminder and
a command, And the King will
reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever
you did for one of the least of
these brothers of Mine, you did
for Me.’ —Matthew 25: 40

Everyday we have the opportunity to impact the world we live in. For some of us we will
leave our own homeland and go across the world to share the Gospel. For some, we will
continue to work where God has planted us and share the Gospel right in our own community.
For others, we will invest our financial resources to advance the kingdom of God.
Wherever, whenever, and whatever it takes ~ let’s make Jesus famous.
For the past two years we have continued the mission of God. As one missionary shared
with me, “the Holy Spirit is never on lock down.” The Gospel will continue to advance, and
God chooses us to fulfill this mission.
I want to encourage you to prayerfully consider in this season, what God is asking of you
and how you will respond. I promise if you say “yes” you won’t regret it.
Will you continue to hope with me? Will you continue to pray and believe that the God of the
universe has all things under control and we will see the goodness of God as we continue
to work together to see His kingdom come and His will be done? Romans 5:5 - And hope
does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through
the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
Because of your faithful giving, we were able to complete 2021 projects. That means you
are a crucial part in the Body of Christ in fulfilling the Great Commission. Through prayer,
through financial support, through encouraging words, through communication, we have
been able to see God move in really big ways.
Thank you for your faithfulness to the kingdom of God!
Blessings,
Pastor Maritza
