Protecting the Second Generation and Building a Spiritual Foundation

Rio de Janeiro, a vibrant and passionate city, is home to tens of thousands of Chinese residents. Yet, many second-generation Christian children and Chinese youth are growing up amid the challenges of a multicultural environment during a critical stage in shaping their values. What they need is not just a playground, but a safe and welcoming home where they can encounter the truth.

Our Mission
Through camps, gatherings, and small groups, we seek to help faith take root in the hearts of children and youth ages 6–18. We also hope to use these opportunities as a bridge to bring the Gospel to Chinese families who have long been observing from a distance.

The church has already established a youth fellowship with the vision of raising up young leaders through camps and ongoing discipleship training.

Use of Funds
Funds raised will primarily support children’s and youth ministries, including:

• Venue rentals for camps and training activities
• Meals and transportation arrangements
• Activity materials and supplies

These resources will allow more children to participate safely and consistently. Funds will also be used to equip the church with sports equipment and board games suitable for children and youth, creating a healthy environment for connection, ongoing participation, relationship-building, and spiritual growth.

Bringing Color to Life Through Soccer and Building Character

In Chiang Mai, soccer is a common language for many boys. For children from Thai, Shan, and Burmese families, after-school hours are often spent without guidance or companionship. As a result, the soccer field has become their best classroom.

Our Story
Since the ministry's launch in July 2025, participation has grown from 30 to 50 children. Regular physical training and mentorship have pulled these children away from their screens, teaching them discipline, responsibility, and teamwork. Today, parents are witnessing a remarkable transformation in their lives.

Our Goal
Through soccer, we aim to build a stable platform of care where children ages 8–15 from Buddhist backgrounds can experience God’s love and positive values built on teamwork, training, and encouragement.

Use of Funds
Funds raised will support:

• Soccer equipment and training supplies
• Field rentals and practice sessions
• Transportation and refreshments for the children
• Mentorship activities and outreach programs

These resources will help provide a safe and encouraging environment where children can grow physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually.

Equipping Children with the Keys to the Future

Located in a township community serving grassroots to middle-class families, the Prosperous Learning Center provides affordable Chinese language education.

In Myanmar, Chinese proficiency is a highly competitive job skill. By offering classes at a symbolic fee, we help students from low- to middle-income families gain access to better employment opportunities.

More importantly, the learning center serves as a bridge for relationships and Gospel engagement, allowing our team to walk alongside families in both practical and spiritual ways.

Cultivating Servant Leaders to Transform Society

Seven years ago, GOI launched a secondary school scholarship program in Uganda. Many graduates have since qualified for university.

Wings of Dream carry the last baton — helping underprivileged, high-potential students pursue university or professional training.

At the same time, mission center pastors provide:
• Structured discipleship
• Service opportunities
• Leadership development

Our vision is to raise servant leaders who will influence society for Christ.

Tata is a country in the Arab world where 90% of the population is Muslim. It hosts a large refugee population of approximately 900,000 people. Most of these refugees are from Africa, and 73% of them are women and children.

In the midst of hardship and displacement, these refugees are in desperate need of hope. The "Hope Ministry" was established to help them encounter God’s love and healing, and to restore hope to their lives. Our team members serve as volunteer counselors, providing psychological support to the refugee community.

Through this ministry, our co-workers discovered the tremendous needs in the refugees’ daily lives. The Hope Relief Fund was therefore created to gather love offerings from churches and believers to supply essential goods and resources for the refugee community.

Your donations will help provide:

• Winter supplies
• Holiday celebration items
• Educational assistance
• Basic needs for the refugee center

May this love and care from God become a light in their lives, bringing hope and transformation.

Singapore relies heavily on foreign laborers, also known as “migrant workers.” The growing influx of migrant workers into Singapore has gradually become the norm. Compared to many other countries, Singapore offers good public safety, higher wage levels, economic stability, and an orderly social environment. In addition, the demand for foreign labor is high. These factors together have made Singapore a preferred work destination for this dispersed people group. Most migrant workers are employed in lower-paying and labor-intensive industries such as construction and maritime work. They mainly come from countries including Bangladesh, India, China, and Myanmar. Most of them live in migrant worker dormitories located throughout Singapore.

Since 2020, the Gospel Operation International - Singapore office has recognized the opportunity for diaspora missions and began outreach ministry among local migrant workers. Through partnerships with non-profit organizations, GOI has been able to enter worker dormitories, connect with migrant workers, and gain valuable ministry experience through various activities. By partnering with local churches, COCM regularly visits and cares for migrant workers in adopted dormitories, organizing activities and carrying out both care and evangelism ministries.

The needs among migrant workers are enormous, and the ministry faces significant challenges in both manpower and financial resources. We hope not only to mobilize more Chinese-speaking churches to join this mission, but also to encourage English-speaking churches to participate by adopting dormitories and reaching workers from different nations and ethnic groups. We are currently raising funds to support this ministry. Financial support will not only encourage new churches to participate in dormitory adoption, but also help existing partner churches cover the costs of outreach activities. These expenses include medical screening equipment and supplies needed for health checkups, as well as materials and meals for outings, classes, and other events. Approximately 450 people are served each year.

Mandarin Education and Pre-Evangelism Program for Chinese Children

The Chinese Overseas Christian Mission Gospel Church in São José, Brazil, was established in 2000. For the past 25 years, the church has remained committed to its mission of sharing the Gospel with the Chinese community, caring for Chinese people living in São José and nearby cities. Due to various reasons, the church currently has around 10 Chinese brothers and sisters attending Sunday worship services. The church now faces serious challenges: a small congregation, an aging membership, and a lack of children, youth, and young families. In order to expand the Gospel ministry and support the future development of the church, we urgently need new strategies to attract more families—especially those with children—to come to church.《？

We are now launching the “Joyful Hearts Learning Chinese” — Mandarin Education and Pre-Evangelism Program for Chinese Children. This program is designed for Chinese children ages 7 to 15, whether they have no prior Mandarin knowledge or are beginners. Children in this age group are at a golden stage for language learning, as well as a critical stage for character formation and faith development. Through language-learning activities, we hope not only to serve families and build relationships, but also to create opportunities to introduce parents to the Christian faith.

This ministry project will run for two years. Expenses include teaching materials, classroom equipment, after-class snacks, and family activities during special holidays and festivals.
