Are you praying for Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Sudan ?
Your partnership can bring peace, the Bible, food, clothing, and happiness to children and displaced families in dire need.
"But you, God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless." (Ps 10:14)
July 2, 2022 Dear friends. Yesterday the Advisory Council held its semi-annual meeting. Pastor Temesghen in Addis said Bibles are urgently needed as Tigray begins to open to humanitarian food aid. Sister Alice, who heads the Africa publishing Unit in Kenya, is looking into rapid production of reduced cost Tigrinya Bibles and New Testaments--both require large bulk orders. $10 can help us put a complete Bible and $5 a New Testament into the hands of millions in need of both bread and the bread of life. July is our "Tigrinya Bible Drive" month. Please help us achieve our goal of distributing 250,000 Tigrinya Bibles/ New Testaments!
2021-22 PROJECTS
Feed the 600 Children
Pastor Temesgen and the Shire Kale-Hiwot church are providing daily meals for 600 displaced children identified by UNICEF as among the most at-risk.
Timothy Project GiG has a goal to find 600 sponsors at $100/month until the chilren can find more permanent homes.
1 child can be supported for 1 day for 1 dollar.
Daily Gospel Shortwave Programs
Under the leadership of Tesfu Beraki, our Advisory Council member and a Vice-President of Maezer Semay, a 24/7 Satellite Eritrean TV ministry, Timothy Project GiG supported the launching in Oct 2021 of a daily gospel shortwave broadcast in Tigrinya reaching Ethiopia, Eritrea, Sudan and beyond.
A 1 hour program costs $160 to broadcast.
Ethiopian/Eritrean Bible Drive
The horrific civil war has resulted in tens of thousands of displaced children and families, many of whom are living in refugee camps . In addition, large numbers have been unjustly imprisoned because of their ethnic identity. Timothy Project GiG seeks to provide 50,000 Bibles for displaced people and prisoners in Ethiopia and Sudan, as well as orthodox churches in both Ethiopia and the USA.
A Tigrinya/Eritrean Bible costs about $10 to print and distribute in refugee camps and prisons.
Refugee School in Khartoum
A large number of Eritrean children are educated in a refugee school in Sudan. Many families are in need of clothes, dry food, and school supplies. Timothy Project GiG seeks to ship a container of supplies to families identified by local church partners in Sudan as among the most needy. We also seek to encourage start-up of small businesses which will offer a more permanent solution to the extreme poverty experienced by these families.
A donation of any amount can help purchase and ship goods to the most needy in Sudan.
“Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.” (Phi 4:17)
Grateful for your partnership in the work of God's Kingdom
