Faith was the first of the children under our care to go on to get further education. Breaking out of the poverty cycle for her has been quite a challenge, but Faith's determination to stay focused paid off. Currently, Faith is in her final year of getting her degree in accounting! She is a brilliant student, full of joy, full of faith and when she shares about her faith in Jesus, she bubbles over in delight. She has seen God do so much over the years, especially in providing for her needs.
Joining us in through financial support means that you are the catalyst behind life changing stories like Faith's. Please consider a one time or monthly donation to help us continue to help other children like Faith escape the cycle of poverty and abuse.

Loving on the unloved is one of the key values of Loving on the unloved is one of the key values of our partner P. 
Through support from GNIM, P and her husband U recently brought gifts to the Moken Sea Gypsy tribe on Koh Chang. After travelling several hours by land, P then arrived at the tribe on a long-tail boat in order to visit this needy people group. Looked down upon by many in Thailand, P sees the Moken differently and worthy of God's love. Though many in this tribe struggle with addictions and poverty, the Gospel of Jesus is changing lives! 
We love hearing about how our ministry partners are sharing the love of Jesus and affecting change in the lives of those around them! Want to hear more? Visit our website for more info!
Remember that time we ran a half marathon, raised Remember that time we ran a half marathon, raised over $20,000 and actively saw God work in amazing ways?!
It's hard to believe this was a year ago! 
No group half marathons are in our sights this year, but that doesn't mean we have stopped "running" towards the "finish line" of seeing kids free from trafficking situations! We do have a board member who will be running a trail race, in the hopes of bringing awareness to GNI and anti human trafficking efforts! 
If you are interested in donating on her behalf, please visit our website. We value every donation and gift. We look forward to having you join us in meeting our goal of seeing kids freed from dangerous situations!

As our partners J&A in Northern Thailand have sett As our partners J&A in Northern Thailand have settled into their new home, they have not stopped looking for opportunities to minister to those around them. 
One of the most recent developments is the production and launch of a discipleship program! 
We are excited to see how this program will be used to bring others to know Christ and walk with Him in life changing ways, leading others to Him along the way! #humanrights #activism #stopmodernslavery #standup4humanrights #counteringhumantrafficking #gospeltruth

Our partners, S&A in Myanmar, do an incredible job of managing the funds we send to them. It costs about $150 a month for a single child to be completely taken care of in their safe home. 
Every little bit helps - would you consider partnering with us, even at less than $150 a month, to help these kids have what they need? Visit our website for more information.

Where are you building your legacy? Where are you Where are you building your legacy? Where are you pouring your efforts?
On a recent trip to Thailand, we were able to recognize that years ago when God said "no" to a certain ministry, He was really opening doors to other opportunities. He closed one door to ministry we thought should be our main focus and instead directed us to build our work in other areas. Only looking back are we able to see the blessing that has been God's direction.
Are you choosing to listen to Gods direction and build your life on His foundation? Are your efforts being poured into ministries that create change and help provide a solid foundation for others by showing them the love of Jesus?
We are grateful to partner with so many ministry partners who are affecting change in their communities! The opportunities keep coming and we are grateful. If you are interested in joining us, check out our website or send us a DM! We would love to share more about the kingdom building work we are part of!

It's always incredible when we see things come ful It's always incredible when we see things come full circle.
A young girl in Thailand has been in our missions care since she was young. Growing up with parents that were unavailable, and with younger sisters to take care of, it could of been easy for her to be lost in the system. She has shown incredible determination to make her education a priority, while not compromising her heart of compassion and humility.
This young girl wants to take the next step and further her English education by coming to live in Canada for a time! There are so many details to work out, but we are trusting that God will make a way. 
Would you consider partnering with us to help with the education costs this young woman will face? Send us a message and we would be happy to share with you how your funds will directly impact her life.
Recently, S's ministry partner in Thailand went to Recently, S's ministry partner in Thailand went to a village where he shared the gospel.
12 out of the 19 households came to believe in Jesus! 
Literally and metaphorically cutting the strings that tie them to their old religions and practices and choosing instead to be baptized, these new believers have such joy and excitement in their faith!
One of the biggest needs now is for discipleship in the form of being able to house a local couple and start a church. The estimates are that for only $10,000, a church could be built, started and continue to grow, giving these new believers a solid foundation in their faith.
Would you consider partnering with us to see this happen? Your gift can go so far and enable these Jesus followers to grow and share their faith, impacting many others around them!

May you celebrate today knowing the peace and life that is yours through Jesus!
We couldn't do what we do, without the cross. Wit We couldn't do what we do, without the cross.
Without Jesus dying to save us from our sins, we have no hope, no rescue, no salvation.
Without hope, the plight and future of the children we are rescuing is dim.
Without something bigger than ourselves to live for, life is without meaning and the greatest good we can do is not enough.
Today is Good Friday: a day that reminds us of our desperate need for rescuing, just as much as those we are trying to help today.
We'd love to talk with you more about what Good Friday means to us and the importance of the cross to our mission.

One of the main reasons Rob (President of GNI) too One of the main reasons Rob (President of GNI) took a trip to Thailand this past month, was to help settle our Family of Blessing Ministry into a new home!
J & A have hearts for evangelism and discipleship. Along with this passion, they are moving the girls in their home into a different part of the province so they will be able to continue their education. One of the girls will be completing her final year of university, while another is in her second year of Bible School. The hope and future these young women have as a result of Family of Blessing is just incredible! God is so good! 
If you want to know more about our ministries and how you can help further the education of the next generation of Thai women, please visit our website or send us a message! We would love to share more of how you can impact these lives!
