Touch the World 2020 – $50,000 Goal
Chi Alpha Campus Ministries
$15,000
Chi Alpha is the Assemblies of God outreach to the s
ecular university campus. In NC, Chi Alpha is currently on 8 campuses with plans to expand to more colleges. These campuses represent almost 128,000 students – some of whom arrive in NC to study from countries that are closed to the gospel. Estimates are that less than 5% of the total student population have a relationship with Christ. This vast mission field is “next door” to many of us! Chi Alpha exists to win students to Christ, build them up in faith, and send them out to reach the world. Our giving and prayer support will underwrite all the 2020 Back to Campus outreaches and help sponsor students to leadership development events. Join us in reaching our next generation of leaders!
Women’s Empowerment: Convoy of Hope
$3,000
This initiative is currently active in six nations and it provides education opportunity and seed capital for women to start their own businesses, breaking the cycle of poverty and their families and communities. Are giving will help change the destinies of five women and their families!
Calcutta Mercy Hospital
$3,500
Since 1977, this outreach founded by AG Missionaries, Mark & Huldah Bontain, has helped relieve suffering in Calcutta, India. For every 10,000 people in Calcutta, there are only 9 beds and 6 trained doctors. Calcutta Mercy’s staff are brilliantly trained and strategically passionate in treating patients who are often rejected elsewhere due to their caste or social demographic. Through this ministry, the Hope of the Gospel becomes louder than the voice of sickness and despair. Our giving will help supply much needed medical equipment and show Jesus’ love to the “least of these.”
