Traer agua potable a una comunidad
POWER LINES WERE LEVELED IN ACAPULCO, MEXICO, during Hurricane Otis, and the existing water system was knocked out. We quickly set up water points at churches using our filtration systems. As weary, thirsty people came to draw water, they also heard about Jesus Christ, the Living Water. “We have had people accept Jesus when they come to get water. We want to let the Light of the Lord shine,” said Milton, a local pastor. For $75, you can help us bring clean water to communities around the world hard-hit by disaster or villages where this resource is scarce. We'll also invite people to trust in Jesus, our Savior who “will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts” (Revelation 21:6).

Dona una cabra lechera
MADELINE LIVES in an impoverished village in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She struggled to provide for her children until she received goats from Samaritan's Purse and training on how to care for them. These animals have now become a tangible source of blessing, as her original three goats have multiplied and have increased the family's income. They provide a steady source of protein-rich milk, and the growing herd provides a salable resource at the local market. “We thank God the Father. Now we are able to educate our children, eat, and take care of our health needs,” Madeline said. Your $70 gift will provide a goat or other dairy animal for a struggling family like Madeline's and remind them that “every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights” (James 1:17).

Detén la trata de personas
HOA* IS AMONG the secondary school students in Vietnam who have received training from Samaritan’s Purse on how to recognize and prevent human trafficking. Sadly, this practice is common in her community because people are desperate with few options to escape poverty. One of Hoa's relatives crossed the border with the promise of legitimate work and instead found an abusive employer who made it almost impossible for him to safely return home. “What we learned in the Samaritan’s Purse training is life-saving. I will tell others about it,” Hoa said. Your $125 gift equips us to teach vulnerable students and adults around the world about unsafe migration and how to prevent exploitation before it begins. *Name changed for security.

Alimenta a una familia
BECAUSE OF CONFLICT IN SUDAN, Amira* had to flee her home and seek safety in a displacement camp where she and her four children have little food. Her family is among thousands there who have received emergency food from Samaritan's Purse. We are distributing food to people in communities affected by natural disasters, as well as people in war-torn areas. Your $35 gift can feed a family in need for a month and provide an opportunity to share the message of eternal life through Christ. “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). *Name changed for security.

Regala un kit para bebé
MILUIA WAS SCARED to give birth in Venezuela because of a lack of proper medical care for mothers-to-be. When she was pregnant with her third child, she made the difficult journey to Colombia and found her way to a clinic where our team is providing maternal care such as ultrasounds and prenatal vitamins. We are also giving baby kits filled with important items for a newborn such as diapers and wipes. Your gift will help restore the joy of motherhood as we share the hope that Jesus Christ is our “refuge and shield” (Psalm 119:114).

Provee cuidado médico urgente
IN THE 1960s, when Kudjip Nazarene Hospital was started in Papua New Guinea, X-rays were done with film. As decades passed, film was hard to find. We provided the hospital with digital X-ray machines that have helped save many lives, including that of a young girl with pneumonia. “An X-ray showed that her lung had collapsed and allowed us to see that she needed a chest tube,” said Dr. Ben Radcliffe. We operate a medical warehouse and employ biomedical technicians who refurbish donated equipment and install it in remote mission hospitals. Your gift will help cover the cost of shipping and servicing equipment so doctors can offer their patients the best care possible and let them know that “all things work together for good to those who love God” (Romans 8:28).
