Women's Ministry

Women's Ministry

The Scriptures show that the Lord has a special role for women to fulfill in His kingdom. The first person to whom God chose to announce His Son's earthly arrival was a woman. Through Jesus' ministry, He demonstrated His value of women in a male-dominated society—teaching them, touching them and healing them. And when He rose from the dead, women were the first to know.

Bible Colleges

Bible Colleges

Reaching the most unreached in our generation is the vision God has given to GFA World. For this to become a reality, we realized years ago that we would need to send out many more pioneer missionaries to start fellowships among all the unreached people groups of the Indian subcontinent and the neighboring countries.

Church Building

Church Building

Suggested donation: Range from $15,000 - $60,000

A church building is one of the most powerful tools for the growth of a congregation. It:

  • Presents a consistent, welcoming location for visitors from any background who want to learn about Jesus.
  • Frees believers to worship openly and exuberantly without worrying about disturbing their landlords or neighbors.
  • Protects believers from intense summer heat and rain.
  • Offers a safe haven for those experiencing opposition.
  • Encourages a sense of permanency, credibility and stability for the congregation among the local community.
  • Becomes a hub for ministry activities.

When you donate toward church buildings, you are investing in a place that will be filled with praise, prayer and discipleship, displaying the beauty and wonder of God.

Constructing a church building costs between $15,400 to $61,600, depending on size, location and available materials.

Women's Literacy Program

Women's Literacy Program

Suggested donation: $40

Women's Literacy Classes Teach Scripture and Skills
Women across South Asia gather each week for literacy classes where they learn reading, writing and math skills. When a woman completes the course, she's able to read warning labels to protect her children and understand contracts to avoid bonded labor. She won't get cheated at the marketplace because she will finally know how to add. And she can read the Bible for herself and teach it to her children.
Empower Women with the Ability to Read
These women must become better equipped to survive in a society that frequently takes advantage of them. Classrooms are available and willing teachers are ready—all these eager students need is a literacy book and something to write on. Please donate toward these effective teaching tools.

Slum Ministry

Slum Ministry

Tens of millions of people in Asia live in the squalor of slums—in one-room shanties, usually without electricity, running water or toilets. But through slum ministry, the Lord is giving people in slums the chance for a better life. GFA World-supported national workers serving in slums teach adult literacy classes and tutor children. They disseminate information about health and hygiene. They distribute income-generating gifts, along with practical gifts, like water filters, toilets and clothing. They also share with slum dwellers about the greatest gift anyone could gain: the love and mercy of Jesus Christ.
