Mobilizing Missionaries
Equipping evangelists in Cuba, Kenya and Nepal to go further
Dear Friends,
Walking can only get you so far so fast. In many places around the world, missionaries are doing their best to reach distant villages and communities with the gospel by walking, riding worn-out bikes, or hiring costly taxis. But for many, a rugged bicycle or motorbike would greatly multiply their efforts to reach many more people with the gospel, having more time to spend on disciple-making and less time, energy and money spent on traveling.
This month, our Compassion Club investments (I’m an investor, too), will be going to speed the gospel down dusty pathways in Cuba, through hard-to-navigate desert regions of Kenya, and up mountainous terrains in remote Nepal. We’ll be equipping a team of missionaries in Kenya with a durable motorbike with specialized dirt tires to reach villages scattered throughout the Maasai Mara region; equipping determined evangelists in Nepal with a rugged motorcycle to reach Buddhist villages hidden within the vast Himalayas; and equipping 12 dedicated disciple-makers in Cuba each with his/her own sturdy bicycle to reach more villages and communities throughout their communist island nation.
Each month, your Compassion Club investments are enabling Jesus’ kingdom to be advanced all over the globe.
Thank you for being a member,

Recruiting some help
I’ve asked Heaven’s Family staff member Jody Walker to start sending out these bi-monthly updates and communicating with you on behalf of the Compassion Club. Jody’s been with us for over 6 years, and I think you’ll really enjoy hearing from him. I’ll still be personally approving each month’s project that your Compassion Club investment assists.
Updates from past Compassion Club projects
As promised, below are two updates from past projects that investments to the Compassion Club have helped accomplish. You’ll notice that sometimes it takes months to get an update back to you. Some projects require more time, depending on the location and nature of the need.
