12/01/23 What Do Your Donations Accomplish?

As we begin the last month of the year, we want to thank our donors for faithful, generous, and sacrificial giving to help train nationals and spread the gospel! What do your donations accomplish?

  1. Training thousands of national pastors and church leaders in 19 countries with Bible college training brought to them at no charge!

2. Supporting national trainers who are taking the GBTF training into nations, some of which we could not even get into ourselves.

3. Planting churches and evangelizing areas where no gospel witness previously existed.

These pictures are from some of the 91 church plants by GBTF church planters in Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi, Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Kenya. In these countries, from May to August, 1,935 people came to faith in Christ, and 1,322 were baptized. The 11 GBTF church planters in Sudan have reported 283 people placing faith in Christ and 265 baptized.

That is what your donations accomplish – training the nationals, equipping and motivating them to win their nations for Christ! These eternal life changes could not happen without your giving. As we end 2023, please consider a generous gift to help Global Baptist Training Foundation reach further and wider than ever! Here is our Christmas Wish List:

Merry Christmas from Global Baptist Training Foundation,
