Dear Friend,<br />

Thank you for taking the time to read through this<br />

<strong>Gift</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong>. As you flip through the pages, you<br />

will get a greater glimpse of God’s work around<br />

the world and learn how we can partner together<br />

to make Christ known among the nations. As the<br />

prophet Isaiah foretold 700 years before Christ,<br />

“The people who walked in darkness have seen<br />

a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep<br />

darkness, on them has light shone.” (Isaiah 9:2).<br />

Still today, there are billions of people living in great<br />

darkness who need God’s light to shine on them.<br />

Your generous giving toward projects in this <strong>Gift</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong> provides<br />

opportunities to shine the bright light of Christ to people living in dark and<br />

desperate times. Please join us in praying for our Associates and National<br />

<strong>Partners</strong> around the world as they prepare to share the Good News with those<br />

who will benefit from these projects.<br />

Jonathan Grooms, GPPD President<br />

Livestock<br />

Goats<br />

My name is Charlis. These goats<br />

provide extra needed income for my<br />

family. I have 3 children: two sons and<br />

one daughter. One of my sons is 18<br />

years old, my daughter is in 4th grade,<br />

and my other son has special needs.<br />

$50 - Project #1012<br />

I also do daily wage labor in the fields,<br />

but the money I earn through that<br />

is not sufficient, so these goats help<br />

provide the extra income we need.<br />

Now that I am able to breed the goats<br />

and sell them, I am able to use the<br />

money towards the children’s studies.<br />

elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.<br />

Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a<br />

gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.”<br />

“A Local Resource, a <strong>Global</strong> Experience!”<br />

On May 3, 20<strong>23</strong>, GPPD will celebrate our 20th year of showing and sharing God’s<br />

love locally and globally. Through the years, God has used the lives of countless<br />

people to impact the nations as they have joined God in what He is doing through<br />

GPPD. With the addition of this facility, we believe that even more people and<br />

nations will be reached for His glory.<br />

We are now in Phase 1 of this project and are walking forward as God provides<br />

financially for the new facility. If you would like to help mobilize more people to<br />

make Christ known among the nations, please consider a donation to this cause!<br />

• Visit the Homes of Refugees<br />

• Celebrate the <strong>Gift</strong> of Clean Water<br />

• Help lead Christian English Camps<br />

• Spend Time with Sponsored Kids<br />

• Work on Construction Projects<br />

• Deliver Livestock <strong>Gift</strong>s<br />

We remain committed to sending<br />

95% or more of donations directly to<br />

the designated cause. Because of this<br />

approach, your donation specifically<br />

towards the building project is critical in<br />

order to reach Phase 2 of fundraising and<br />

construction.<br />

Refugees<br />

Our refugee ministry in Jordan continues to provide food,<br />

heaters and blankets, community support, children’s programs,<br />

Bible studies, and more. Our goal is to not only help cover their<br />

basic needs, but to impact their future story through God’s love.<br />

Thanks to the generosity of many, we’ve been able to provide food,<br />

medicine, and aid for thousands of displaced people in Ukraine and<br />

hundreds of refugees in Slovakia through our GPPD Associates.<br />

families lack access to a clean water source. Since 2011, <strong>Global</strong><br />

<strong>Partners</strong> is blessed to have installed 452 wells in rural villages,<br />

primarily in India and more recently in Uganda. We are not far<br />

from our goal to have 500 wells funded by the end of <strong>2022</strong>!<br />

receive images, videos and<br />

GPS coordinates of the<br />

well you helped provide.<br />

“A Sisterhood of Artisans”<br />

NHS artisans creating maps for the advent calendar<br />

At Nations’ Hope Store Maker’s Events, ladies learn how to create an item<br />

for sale in our online store and are paid onsite for each completed product.<br />

Regular attendees grow in handicraft and business skills, which can translate<br />

into their own small business contexts. Nations’ Hope is so much more than a<br />

business endeavor. NHS leaders intentionally build relationships, encouraging<br />

the women in God’s truth, praying with them, and seeking discipleship<br />

opportunities. You are invited to shop at NationsHopeStore.com.<br />

“This was one of our favorite Christmas<br />

activities we’ve ever chosen to do. We<br />

learned so much and were blown away by<br />

how many people groups have yet to hear<br />

and receive Jesus. My kids were sad to<br />

stop, but I told them we will continue to<br />

pray about these unreached groups and<br />

are looking forward to being a part of your<br />

ministry.”<br />
