IPHC members in churches throughout the US have responded to the call to donate a day&#8217;s wage to Global Outreach, knowing that without these funds the ministry of missionaries and national ministers around the globe would be crippled.<\/p>\n<p>But many in America might be surprised to learn that the Global Outreach offering is not just funded by US churches. Believers and churches in many other countries have realized that the GO offering presents an opportunity for them to join in the effort to make disciples of all nations, and thereby carry out the Great Commission of our Lord.<\/p>\n<p>During General Conference in Orlando, the World Missions Ministries Asia\/Pacific luncheon was held to honor the missionaries and national leaders of the region. At that event, national leaders from India and the Philippines took the opportunity to present Global Outreach offerings collected in their countries.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bishop Pepito Gadallo presented an offering of $1000 from the Philippine PH Church.<\/li>\n<li>Bishop B. S. Moses Kumar presented an offering of $500 from the Donald Church in Hyderadad, India.<\/li>\n<li>Bishop A. Samuel Moses presented an offering of $700 from the South India Conference.<\/li>\n<li>Bishop Michael John presented an offering of $2800 from the North India Conference. Bishop Michael testified that <strong>every single church<\/strong> in the conference participated in this offering!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The size of these offerings is extraordinary, especially considering that many of the Indian believers make only <strong>$2 per day<\/strong>! How is it that these believers are willing to give so much when they have so little? As the Apostle Paul put it, &#8220;their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of generosity&#8221; (2 Corinthians 8:2). In other words, they count it a privilege to participate in the work of Global Outreach,\u00a0and the\u00a0joy of giving to missions far outweighs whatever sacrifice they make.<\/p>\n<p>May the Lord help all of us to follow their example of joyful generosity!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/give.iphc.org\/missions\/236458\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong><em>Give to the GO offering here!<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Russell Board The Global Outreach offering provides funding for a variety of essential mission activities, including Bible Schools, training programs for national leaders, local pastors&#8217; conferences, support for national&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":1590,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[205,32,220,235,237],"class_list":{"0":"post-1588","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-world-missions","8":"tag-205","9":"tag-asia","10":"tag-global-outreach","11":"tag-go-offering","12":"tag-pacific","13":"entry"},"title_es":"Borrado autom\u00e1tico","content_es":"Por Russell Board La oferta Global Outreach provee fondos para una variedad de actividades esenciales de la misi\u00f3n, incluyendo Escuelas B\u00edblicas, programas de capacitaci\u00f3n para l\u00edderes nacionales, conferencias de pastores locales, apoyo a misioneros nacionales y necesidades cr\u00edticas de emergencia. Los miembros de IPHC en iglesias en todo Estados Unidos han respondido a la llamada a donar un d\u00eda de salario a Global Outreach, sabiendo que sin estos fondos el ministerio de misioneros y ministros nacionales de todo el mundo ser\u00eda lisiado. Pero muchos en Estados Unidos podr\u00edan sorprenderse al saber que la oferta Global Outreach no es s\u00f3lo financiada por iglesias estadounidenses. Los creyentes e iglesias en muchos otros pa\u00edses se han dado cuenta de que la ofrenda GO ofrece una oportunidad para que se unan en el esfuerzo de hacer disc\u00edpulos de todas las naciones, y as\u00ed llevar a cabo la Gran Comisi\u00f3n de nuestro Se\u00f1or. Durante la Conferencia General en Orlando, el almuerzo de los Ministerios Mundiales de Misiones en Asia y el Pac\u00edfico se llev\u00f3 a cabo para honrar a los misioneros y l\u00edderes nacionales de la regi\u00f3n. En ese evento, los l\u00edderes nacionales de la India y Filipinas aprovecharon la oportunidad para presentar las ofertas de Global Outreach recogidas en sus pa\u00edses.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>El Obispo Pepito Gadallo present\u00f3 una ofrenda de $ 1000 de la Iglesia Filipina PH.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>El Obispo BS Moses Kumar present\u00f3 una ofrenda de 500 d\u00f3lares de la Iglesia Donald en Hyderadad, India.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>El Obispo A.

Como dijo el ap\u00f3stol Pablo, \"su abundancia de alegr\u00eda y su extrema pobreza se han desbordado en una abundancia de generosidad\" (2 Corintios 8: 2). En otras palabras, lo consideran un privilegio participar en la labor de Global Outreach, y la alegr\u00eda de dar a las misiones supera con mucho cualquier sacrificio que hagan.
