In addition to the Daily blog, we (Bryan and Marcia Thayer) created Go Light Our World to encourage people to partner with us in our ministry (we are volunteers). We also encourage others to intentionally seek out ways to share God’s light with the world around YOU!
Like you, our work focuses where we live. That’s our first mission field. Our mission also extends to Bolivia, South America where we were headed and where we plan to return when my leukemia allows me to travel again. In the meantime we work weekly to encourage ministry efforts in Cochabamba, Bolivia, working with the disenfranchised, and poorest of the poor. The efforts of local workers help meet spiritual and physical needs. Examples include literacy, nutrition, hygiene, preventative health care, worship, prayer, and self-sufficiency programs. In Vetren, Bulgaria, we work with local ministry leaders to help bring ostracized Gypsy children out of the cycle of poverty. Programs include self-sufficiency training, literacy, and worship and prayer.
GLOW also works to encourage and support Athletes In Action, a ministry of Campus Crusade (CRU) and other select ministries that are working to shine the light of Christ across the world.
We will describe some of these projects in more detail in tomorrow’s post.
In the meantime, think about your potential to being light to the world around you.
