GO CORPS UPDATE

3/2/2018

 
PictureGoCorps staff Mike recruiting at a recent career fair.
Dear Valley Christian Church,

We’re glad that you're with us in the mission to see two years of global service become the norm for Christian young adults! Together we’re working to change the culture on campuses and in churches to go beyond a short-term mission mindset and focus!  Here’s an update on what our team’s been up to in 2018 so far…

Tomorrow is a big day! March 1 is our first (and main) application deadline. Since September 15, our team has been visiting campuses, setting up at conferences and career fairs, speaking and doing presentations in campus fellowship groups and classes, and doing whatever we can do to get in front of students and invite them to take the bold step of investing two years in global service after college. Please pray for the final students who are busily trying to complete their application before the March 1 midnight deadline!

​What else is going on:
  • Only 8 Goers from the class of 2017 have yet to launch! Currently we have 72 Goers on the field, and when these final eight hit the field, it’ll be the most Goers we’ve ever had serving at one time. They are serving in 17 countries through all of our different skill-set based tracks.
  • Our Goer blogs continue to inspire me as our Goers share their hearts and experiences. Check out this blog: The Harvest is Plentiful  -  2017 Goer Zack shares about one of his first ministry events since arriving to Mexico. Read about an iconic monument that he highlighted at the beginning of his journey, A Journey of Obedience - The Beginning, and now it has come full circle as he starts his ministry.
Prayer Requests:
Winter recruiting season - March 1 is not the end of recruiting… we’ll still be reaching out to students to apply for our final application deadline on June 1.

Praise God for continuing to bless GoCorps by opening doors on many campuses this semester
Pray that our message would reach the right students who are ready to answer the call to go
Pray for the knowledge of GoCorps to continue to grow across college campuses around the USWe are thankful for your partnership in the gospel!

PAUL VAN DER WERF
