The power of the Gospel brings hope and transformation to communities. However, the journey of evangelism requires resources, both material and human. The task is monumental, but we firmly believe in the power of collective effort. We have seen time and time again how the kindness and generosity of individuals like you have brought about remarkable changes in the lives of many.
HCM pastors and churches are ready to bring about this transformation; all they need is your help.
The profound influence of pastors often reaches beyond what can be seen. Leading a growing church in La Toison, Pastor Francois, recently held a sermon series on forgiveness. He urged the congregation to embrace forgiveness. On the final day, two young boys revealed their parents struggled to get along. The children bravely encouraged their parents to start each day by greeting each other as a step toward forgiveness. Moved by their children's courage, the parents tearfully agreed and have since reconciled, crediting the forgiveness series for their renewed harmony. This story demonstrates the impact these pastors have, as they also invest in the next generation, equipping them to be agents of change.
In a time when gang violence has isolated many in nearby neighborhoods, the Christian Church of Simonette has become a sanctuary for the community. Despite the challenges, Pastor Frederick has courageously kept the doors open, offering a place of peace and fellowship where people can come together and worship. Even as nearby churches have closed under the strain of intimidation, Simonette’s church has stood firm. The kids’ choir has returned, filling the church with joyful voices, and life is slowly returning to the community. Pastor Frederick’s unshaken faith has given people hope in the darkest of times, and it’s because of supporters like you that HCM can continue empowering leaders like him.
During this 50th anniversary celebration year, we are praying this end-of-year investment appeal will bring in $93,500 to provide for the evangelism needs to launch us into the start of another 50 years.
