Winter 2016

Merry Christmas & Happy New YearFrom all of us at International Gospel Outreach... From India to Italy, From the Philippines to Kenya, Uganda and Ethio-pia. From the uttermost parts of the earth to your home... We pray that God richly blesses you and confirms his presence in your life every day.

It has been a fruitful year for us at IGO. Thanks to your gifts and support, our missionaries are forging new frontiers

for the Kingdom of God, making disciples, training leaders, rescuing the hopeless, feeding the hungry and reaching the lost.

For all of us in the home office, we count it a privilege to serve with you as we serve missionaries, national pastors and leaders around the globe.

As you look toward the end of 2016, and into 2017, please pray with us as we seek the desires of God where God wants us to focus in the next year. All of our current missionaries are fully engaged, but there are new missionaries coming on line in the months ahead.

Also, consider joining with us financial-ly as we close out this year. Any gift you make, post marked by December 31, will be counted on your 2016 giving. Your gifts keep missionaries going. Your gifts also help us at the home office serve all of those sent to the nations - it really does make a difference.
