Dear John,
Do you find yourself wondering if life will ever return to normal?
Each of us has been affected in unique ways by the COVID-19 pandemic. For many of us, cancelled events and travel plans have been replaced by a nagging sense of uncertainty about the future.
But with your support, Mission 2020 will continue!
Mission 2020 is a strategic effort to impact every level of society with the Gospel, and change lives, cities and the nations of Africa. The goal is to see 100,000 people make personal commitments to follow Jesus by the end of this year.
Of course, reaching those 100,000 people will need to look a little different now – and that’s why I’m writing to you today.
Your gift to help meet the $250,000 funding need will ensure thousands hear the Gospel through Home-Based Evangelism – so they can find hope in Jesus, even during this COVID-19 crisis.
Your generosity today will help share Jesus’ love through evangelistic broadcast messages, small home-based meetings, and connections with local churches. These are safe and effective ways you can help reach people with the Gospel as lockdowns limit movement.
As you know, AE Missions always have a profound impact on people and their communities. And that’s not going to change!
This year, you’ll continue to help reach people like Dereje, who was raised a Christian but walked away from God after joining the military. He married a Muslim woman and lived what he called “a wild life”. But he says, “I had no peace and life became empty.”
Praise God, generous supporters like you enabled Dereje to hear the Gospel through AE Mission work. As a result, he gave his life back to Jesus after more than 20 years!
Now Dereje says:
“My wife also became a believer and we are taking a discipleship class in a church. My wish is to follow Christ seriously, go to Bible school, and serve God.”
This year, you can help thousands more people like Dereje discover the joy of knowing Jesus.
So please, give generously today to help 100,000 people become Christians this year, even during the COVID-19 pandemic!
Thank you for your support!
