This Is It. The Big Push.
It is too soon to say for certain, but 2024 might be a year where Light for the Lost sees an historic record for giving.
If that happens, it means we will have an historic year of investing in world evangelism!
We Still Believe that evangelism (by any and all means) is priority #1 for God’s people, and we have done our best these past three months to provide every opportunity for you to invest in it.
As 2024 comes to a close, we need your help to finish strong.Will you take a quick moment to pray and ask Jesus what He wants to do through you this month for LFTL? Your Christmas or year-end offering will be skillfully utilized by missionaries in the U.S. and overseas to reach people for Christ using print, audio, video, website- or app-based resources.
Here are just four examples of the kinds of evangelism needs that will be funded through your generosity.
