One pastor has his sights set on reaching an overlooked group in the country of Georgia—the Deaf. Pastor Paata, and his mentee Akaki, who are deaf, have already delivered more than 300 shoebox gifts to children in schools for deaf students. His goal is to reach every family in Georgia that includes a deaf person with the Good News! As families see the joy that comes through receiving a shoebox gift, their curiosity is sparked, and conversation begins. Read more about this beautiful mission through the link in our bio. 🔗

A few weekends ago, our team in Ecuador noticed this 11-year-old boy selling candy to help provide for his family while they live in a tent at a nearby park. Feeling compelled by the Holy Spirit, our team invited him to attend an outreach event. The boy was moved to tears by the Good News and asked Jesus to come into his heart! He also received a tangible expression of God's great love through a shoebox gift. After the event, the boy told the team that the most impactful part of the day was hearing, "Jesus loves you." ❤️
