Thank you all for the exciting December finish to the 2021 fundraising effort. As you may have heard, we finished the year with a matching challenge of US$100,000, put forward by two different friends of ChinaSource. The final tally is done, and together, you, our community of support, provided US$136,761.03 toward the challenge and succeeded in meeting and exceeding the match!
As with so many journeys, it isn’t just the destination but how you get there…in helping ChinaSource raise these funds we are thrilled that:
- 232 friends gave 300 donations toward the match
- ChinaSource received gifts from 42 first-time donors
- Gifts came from people in over 10 countries
In addition to gifts, many donors wrote notes of encouragement and prayer, voicing their support. We are very grateful for these kind words and rejoice that we can partner with Christians around the world who are cultivating a heart for China and the Chinese people.
The Lord continues to make it clear that now is the time to deepen our calling to the church in China and more firmly commit to our role of global partnership in the Great Commission. We are excited to continue growing and are ready to embrace this new ministry year.
Thank you for being on this journey with us.
