Go
Are you ready to go… and directly impact lives?
Serve on a short-term missions team that brings compassion, help, and hope to those in need.
Provide clean water to drink. Help kids in Guatemala learn. Assist adults in Kenya to overcome alcohol addiction. Help people receive good medical attention and learn how to care for themselves. And so much more!
Yes, I’m interested!

Find more than coffee in Guatemala.
Ok, yes, the coffee is splendid. But go to Guatemala on a GCR mission trip, and you’ll be enriched by new friendships and experiences.
And while you’re at it, you can bring compassion. The people of Guatemala would appreciate it greatly.
If you want to make a donation to GCR so that others can go, consider giving up one $7 coffee per week. And support us with $30 per month to help bring compassion where it’s missing.
It’s a great way to make a meaningful impact. And it’s really not sacrificing all that much.
“My experience serving with GCR changed my perspective forever…”

A story highlighting someone who served…
Not Expected Blessings
I love Global Compassion Resources because it all begins with an idea. While serving with our Church, Community Baptist Church, we had the opportunity to serve in Eldoret, Africa. Africa is a beautiful country. It seems to lack a government that helps its people. The population is full of hunger, addiction, poverty and unemployment. We visited a daytime refuge for homeless children, some who have run away from home, some who have been kicked out by their families. Too many are addicted to glue snuffing.
We also shared information on dental hygiene and shared toothbrushes and toothpaste, The smiles on the kids faces brought smiles to us as well. They were so excited that we had come just to see them.
We had a great time teaching them songs and sharing stories from the gospels. They know the Bible, but are not sure how to apply it to their own lives.
The age group of the children we encountered was 2-18 year old. After spending the afternoon with games, songs and sharing God’s love, we asked if we could pray with them. We formed circles around them and prayed for the children sharing the Gospel and giving Hope. Many of them accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior.
The children have little opportunity to climb out of their situation. It is with the love of Christ and volunteers they are getting some help.
It is with mixed emotions and hard to say “Good-bye” when it is time to go. There is so much to do and help there. I have been 2 times and hope to return. The people you encounter will touch your lives forever in a good way.
