Opportunities List

Sponsor a Child - $30/mo

These children walk in from the surrounding woods and fields. We provide each child with a hot meal once a day that includes the protein they need to grow normally. Each day we give them a Bible lesson and talk about the gospel!

Church Sound Equipment - $5,000

The simple sound equipment we have is carried between the church in Diriamba and the church in Tepano and is very susceptible to damage in transit. Help us supply Tepano with its own sound equipment.

Finish Compound Wall - $12,000

At the compound which houses our pastors and our Diriamba church, there are local thieves who break in regularly to steal anything of value. In particular, there are two boys addicted to drugs who are a menace. Our pastors have been kind and gracious, offering them food, and sharing the gospel. Pray for the salvation of Diego and Hosoi! Would you help us finish the compound wall to keep out thieves?

Pastoral House & Children’s Home

Tepano is an especially poor area where parents leave their kids for long periods of time either to earn money, or chasing the world’s pleasures. Global Cross cares for many children that are left to care for their younger siblings (see image) with no money, no food, and no resources. There are kids as young as 6 or 7 years old who take care of siblings including toddlers. Global Cross has identified a need to build a pastoral house on our property large enough to house these children. Please help us with this project!

Sponsor a Teen - $50/mo

Most teenagers cannot attend secondary school (7th-12th grade) due to the cost and distance. Not only do we feed them each day, but a sponsorship will ensure the kid gets school supplies and a ride to secondary school.

Truck for Ministry - $40,500

Needs for a 4wd truck are great. Presently we travel into nearly impassable areas to evangelize the lost. Further, we often are called for medical emergencies to carry folks from these hard to reach areas to a doctor/hospital. We transport supplies and even our own sound equipment to, from and between our churches. The need for a truck is great. Presently, our old truck is broken down and even when fixed, it is nearing a time when the cost to upkeep it is greater than buying another option.

Ministry House - $6,500

Presently, Joelka, our Tepano kitchen and church staff is living with her husband and their infant child in a shack with plastic walls. Global Cross would like to build her family a home on church property - would you help us supply this basic need to Joelka and her family?

Youth Retreat - $3,000

Our youth group has grown, and is growing fast. These kids are excited to get together and attend church regularly. As a result, many have trusted in Jesus for salvation! These retreats are a great way to get perspective and sit under the gospel. Global Cross will help facilitate 3 trips per year. Would you help us?

Seminary for Henderson $300/mo

Henderson started coming to our youth group to play soccer with other young people. He did not expect to meet Jesus, but not only did he get saved, but now Henderson senses a call to ministry. Read his story and help him go to seminary!

Van for Ministry - $44,000

Currently we have 104 active kids in our ministry. Many of their parents and grandparents desire to attend church. Each time we open the doors, we must make many trips back and forth from houses to the respective church to deliver those who wish to attend, then again to take them home. Further, we have at least 3 youth events each year that now exceeds our van capacity, making it necessary to rent an expensive bus. Our ministry is expanding fast and our need for transportation is great.

Church Windows - $2,500

Our church in Tepano is in need of windows. During rainy season they leak water into the building. During the hot season, they give no option for relief. Many are broken. Global Cross is seeking a donor to help us uplift the church with better windows.

Current Truck Repairs - $2,000

Our old truck broke down and is in the shop with repairs that cost $2000. Without it, we are unable to carry music equipment to and from the churches, unable to use it to transport folks wanting to attend church, unable to use it to get supplies and groceries. Will you help?
