Good Together: The Good News of Education
“His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness.” - 2 Peter 1:3 (CSB)
Full disclosure…though we celebrate Creating Potential in the communities we serve, the deeper truth is God has already done that before we get there. Our job is to help unlock the power of the Created Potential in the people we serve.
Henry Blackaby said it well when he said, “Watch to see where God is moving and join Him.” (Experiencing God)
We also love the passage of Jesus commissioning Peter, “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will have been loosed in heaven.” - Matthew 16:19 (CSB)
We talked last week about clean water allowing people to live with a higher level of health, but that’s not the only key on our keychain. Education is making a huge impact!
The generosity of our Links Family is allowing us to change the destinies of vulnerable children.
Many of our education projects are providing young women with opportunities never before available to them. Can you imagine being the first girl in your family line to have education available to you? That is some seriously good news! That is a powerful key to unlocking potential!
In other places, we are able to provide a higher quality of education that allows children with the potential to go to a higher level of education which leads them to a more sustainable job after school which means poverty is a thing of the past.
Education is one of the most significant ways to confront poverty and change destinies.
The potential is there, and it is our honor to unlock it and see children empowered to experience God’s provision through the miracle of quality education.
We are currently supporting elementary and secondary education initiatives in Nicaragua, Malawi, Pakistan, India, The Philippines, and Zimbabwe.
A monthly donation between $10-$33 provides education for one child for an entire school year (in some places).
A donation of $1,500 funds an entire school in another place. We would love to talk more about this if you would like more details.
Please be praying for our education partners and for the endurance of the children who are pioneers in their family trees.
Those of you who partner with us to give toward Education and ongoing projects in Pakistan will love this update!
Today we did soccer drills at Grace School. What a joy to see the kids learning football! Most of them were under forced labor but now they are having dreams of becoming soccer players and can have many more dreams for the future.
