As we enter a new year, I want to pause and thank you for helping advance the gospel in 2025.
Because of partners like you, we’ve been able to send and sustain workers in some of the world’s most unreached places. We’ve seen new believers baptized, churches planted, leaders trained, and the truth proclaimed in communities previously without gospel witness.
This is not our mission but the Lord’s work entrusted to his church. Christ has promised, “I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” (Matthew 16:18). His promise holds true across all nations—the gospel will advance, and “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea” (Habakkuk 2:14). What a promise in which to rest our souls as we enter 2026!
God has given us the immense privilege of taking part in that work. We, as Christ-followers, are the very means he uses to proclaim the saving power and lordship of Christ to all peoples—not for our glory, but for the glory of God. That’s why we’re committing ourselves to flood the nations with the gospel—in 2026 and in the years to come.
Thank you for helping send the light of Christ into dark places. We begin 2026 encouraged and grateful for your partnership.
Gratefully yours,
Andy Kirby
Executive Vice President
