GLOBAL CONNECTIONS MINISTRY
What We Believe
We believe young people with intercultural backgrounds are called to be future world missionaries, and our work at GCM is focused on preparing these young people for their calling.
Core to our mission is sharing the message of Isaiah 35:10 and Isaiah 51:11 relating to the rescue of God's ransomed by coming into God's calling over their lives.
and those the Lord has rescued will return.
They will enter Zion with singing;
everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy will overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away. [Isaiah 35:10]
and those the Lord has rescued will return.
They will enter Zion with singing;
everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy will overtake them,
and sorrow and sighing will flee away. [Isaiah 51:11]
Right now, GCM is supporting young people around the world by providing educational solutions to open doors for them. At the same time, these young people are encouraged to understand God's plan in their lives and to find their identity not as young people in between cultures, but as children of God and citizens of heaven.
This movement includes financial and programmatic support for individuals, missions organizations and schools, along with the publication and promotion of materials aligned with the promise of Isaiah 35:10 / 51:11.
If you agree with our perspective that education itself is foundational to preparing young people of intercultural backgrounds to build the Kingdom as future world missionaries for Christ, we ask for your prayers and encouragement as we endure the challenges of this movement, and you are welcome to participate financially.
