Friends,

This month, we’re marking one year of our newest monthly giving program, Pathfinders.

What I love most about this program is that it places children on the path to Jesus at one of the most crucial times of their lives. Research shows that 63% of believers make the decision to follow Christ between the ages of 4 and 14. That includes believers like me—I made the decision to receive Jesus when I was 12!

On top of this, Pathfinders is one of the most efficient financial investments I make every month: for $36 a month, I have the privilege of sending 18 children to a Year-Long Children’s Bible Club.

Finally, I love this program because it is so accessible for the people around me. The monthly stories and intentional investment make it my favorite tool for helping my friends understand what Mission India does.  

So friends, as we wrap up the first year of Pathfinders, will you pray with me?

• Pray that God would raise up even more Pathfinders, so that we can put more children on the path to Jesus than ever.
• Pray that God would give us at Mission India wisdom as we continue to roll out this program.
• Pray that God would use this program across the nation of India—not just in children’s lives, but in their families and communities as well.
• Praise God for the work He has already done through the past year of Pathfinders!

 Finally, will you pray Isaiah 54:13 over India with me?

“All your sons will be taught by the Lord, and great will be your children’s peace.”

Amen!

Together, for India,

Todd VanEk
President & CEO of Mission India
