Perception Funding's Impact over the last month!

Donate to Perception Funding Now As I think about the future at Perception Funding, I am amazed at what God has accomplished through us in such a short time. Our goal is simple: to equip remarkable ministries with the resources to not only fund their ministry but to grow and develop them to serve more and more people so that they can know Christ. YOU CONTINUE TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE! We are so proud of our ministry partners and our staff! Due to the pandemic and hard economic times in many parts of the world, we’ve watched our partners pivot their ministry programs to meet the new (and evolving) problems of those they serve. This has led to new fundraising endeavors and the development of new ministry programs that our staff has been generously involved in creating.   OUR GLOBAL GIVING FUND Sadly, not all of the stories coming from our ministry partners are happy ones. Here are a couple things that have come up just this month: One ministry partner in a third world country discovered a family in their community who, desperate for a source of income, borrowed money from three separate drug cartels in an effort to get their business off the ground. Though slowly growing, their business fell behind on their payments to the cartels and the families lives were in danger. Once informed of this situation, our ministry partner quickly took the lead, providing a large gift and micro loan to get the family’s debt paid and their business on solid ground. There are pitifully few jobs in third world countries, and rarely any extra money to save for business dreams like this family had. YOUR SUPPORT ALLOWS MINISTRIES TO STEP IN AND OFFER THIS KIND OF SUPPORT Another ministry partner in a third world country live in a dangerous location where three cartels are in the thick of a territory war. Our partners witness daily violence and are grieving the death of many in their community. Years ago, their village leader granted our partners permission to use a community green space for ministry purposes. The village leader has since been murdered, leaving the ministry unsure of how to proceed safely. Recently, the dominant cartel granted our partners the continued use of the green space. Even in scary situations, we can see God working small miracles in the day to day lives of our ministry partners. YOUR PRAYERS FOR OUR MINISTRY IMPACT SITUATIONS JUST LIKE THIS, MONTH IN AND MONTH OUT! As our organization grows, we recognize the need to cover unforeseen expenses that continue to arise for on a regular basis for our ministry partners. We feel the burden of bearing emergency situations to alleviate the pain and suffering of those in the communities we serve. Our desire is to have funds set aside; available to cover the expenses of life threatening situations, emergency airfare, last minute micro loans, and, urgently, military grade satellite phones. Additionally, we want to be able to provide funding to help our ministry partners rebuild their ministries once they find themselves dealing with the aftermath of these unfathomable situations. That’s why we are launching our Global Giving Fund. YOU CAN HELP! Join us this Christmas season as we launch and meet our $25,000 goal to start the Global Giving Fund!
