Global Youth Camp was an awesome opportunity for our students to radically strengthen their walk with God while realizing their need to share their faith with the world. I thank Roger and the rest of the Global Youth Camp interns for motivating our students to carry out the tremendous task to which God has called this generation.

How One Dollar Can Help!

Just one dollar a month from YOU and others could send youth missionaries to minister with unreached youth around the world! Together, our dollars could mean thousands or even millions of dollars for youth missionaries around the world. 

For example, just one of the major church denominations in the U.S. has 1,087,000 young people alone enrolled in its churches!  What if only 87,000 of those million plus youth chose to help send youth missionaries abroad through this dollar pledge?  What if those remaining 87,000 faithfully gave up a Coke every month to give their dollar to help underwrite the cost of their peers who were serving as youth mentors abroad?  That would be $87,000 per month!  Every twelve months, those young people would be contributing $1,044,000 to the cause of youth missionaries around the world!  And what if they made this pledge a lifelong, lifestyle pledge?  What if they were willing to give increasing amounts as they enter their earning years?  I’m not talking about these young people spending their tithe on youth missions.  In fact, their giving of a dollar to missions each month would scarcely be missed.  

The fact is, this amount is so miniscule that a young person’s total gift for the entire year would be less than the cost of most music CD’s.  The means to reach the world’s youth is so very do-able!  Imagine what could happen if churches' youth and adults would joing together to give their dollar each month?

Honestly, this simple giving plan is so manageable that it makes one want to sit down and weep because it is not being promoted in our churches with young people and adults alike!  The money is there, but it is either still in people’s pockets or being spent on consumer items that are here one hour and gone the next.  Almost any youth can give a dollar. Adults can model sacrificial giving when choosing the places where they spend their money.  We can use this opportunity to teach young people to be more responsible—and responsive— to the needs of their peers around the world.

Help
We are looking for one adult or older youth who could serve as a “pledge coordinator” for each church and/or youth group. This person would not be required to collect the funds from donors each month. (In fact we hope that each donor will continue to see this pledge as a personal-rather than a group-lifestyle pledge). Instead, this coordinator would simply remind pledge partners to send their donations at the first of each month, and would also serve as a conduit of information between the global mentors and your group. If you would be interested in serving as your youth group’s “pledge coordinator” please contact us as soon as possible.
