Our Focus is Children and Youth… Not Moola!

Late one evening D.L. Moody, the American evangelist of the 1800's, arrived home from speaking at a meeting. Emma, his wife, was already asleep. As her exhausted husband climbed into bed, she rolled over and murmured, "So how did it go tonight?"

"Pretty well," he replied. "Two and a half converts." – His wife laid silently for a moment pondering this response, then finally smiled. "That's sweet," she relied. "How old was the child?" "No, no, no," Moody answered. "It was two children and one adult! The children have their whole lives in front of them. The adult's life is already half-gone."

That brief conversation over 100 years ago between Mr. and Mrs. Moody has today become even more true when we consider the fact that fully half the world, and especially in developing countries like Brasil, are children and teenagers. – So logically, our ministry focus remains to be on Children and Youth. And what makes our focus all the more urgent is that mission's research continues to prove that almost two-thirds of the people who give their lives to Christ do so before the age of eighteen year old. Saying it differently; thirteen out of every twenty Christians accepted Christ as their Savior when they were a child or teen.

With your help, we will continue to focus our ministry on children and youth. As far as the money is concerned,… and it is a very necessary concern, we will trust you as partners and supporters to continue making investments in the lives of children and youth by your generous monthly gifts. As a ministry team it's really difficult to focus on children, youth and money. I guess that's why we're called "partners". Your part enables us to do our part. And there you have "partners". - Thank you for being a wonderful partner that we can count on to help us do our part with ministry to children and youth.
