GoCorps Year-End Review

12/9/2017

Dear Ministry Partner,                                                                          

​We are thankful for your partnership with GoCorps!  Your past financial support has allowed us to send out over 150 GOERs since our inception in 2009.  Our goal is to make mid-term missions a new norm in our nation and to be sending 250 GOERs/year by 2023!  Think of the eternal impact if thousands of young people would choose to spend 2 years of their lives using their degrees to serve Christ in nations where the Gospel has not been fully proclaimed.

Here are a few reasons we are confident our unique approach will allow us to reach this goal:
  • We partner with several established missionary organizations who provide our GOERs with meaningful 2-year assignments with experienced supervision and mentoring. 
  • We challenge Christian graduates from more than 50 campuses (Christian and secular) to consider mid-term mission, thus reaching a much larger pool of candidates – many of whom would not have considered missions as a career option.
  • We prepare our GOERs with an efficient application/support raising process that reduces the time to get into the field from 2 years to 6 months, making a 2-year missionary assignment more appealing.
  • Thanks to donors like you, we eliminate one of the biggest obstacles to mid-term missions, student loan debt, by raising a $2500 student loan scholarship for all qualified GOERs.

Our GOERs are coming back changed forever with a heart for missions borne out of personal experience. Attached is a “2017 Year in Review” that includes one such story. I hope it encourages you, as much as it does me.

As you plan your year-end giving, please consider a tax-deductible financial gift to support more GOERs!  Our GOERs raise their personal support so your gift goes to recruit, coach and equip them for their assignments, to match them with established Sending Partners on-location and to cover $2500 of their student loan debt.

To give, go to www.GoCorps.org/give or mail a check (payable to GoCorps) to 6736 Regent Ave N, Brooklyn Center, MN 55429.  GoCorps is an accredited member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA).

Thanks again for your vital partnership in the Gospel with us,

Paul Van Der Werf
Founder and Executive Director
