Compassionate Outreach Program
The God’s Friendliness Ministries’ Motto
"Reaching out to restore and serve lives"
This Ministry is dedicated to reach out to all nations to fulfill the Great Commission by carrying out ministries of evangelism of peace, discipleship through compassion, and promoting Christian faith. This includes healing, restoration, and salvation of souls. The program also features sound teaching of the word of God through our Bible College and Women and Youth clubs every week. We support vulnerable individuals such as unaccompanied and/or orphaned, separated minors, street children, and elderly people of all races. This support encompasses education, health care, food, clothing, and shelter. We also create safe and inclusive programs to bring together youth in a friendly, celebratory, and educative manner, fostering intercultural communication, making acquaintances, and encouraging them to celebrate their differences while focusing on similarities for mental health and psychosocial well-being.
Matthew 28: 19-20
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am
with you always, to the end of the age."
God seems to enrich those willing to reach out beyond their comfort zones. Opportunities to reach out abound at Gofril and are strongly encouraged. We reach out through teaching Sunday school, preaching, working with youth and children, providing psychic comfort, encouraging those who have lost hope like orphans, the sick, the prisoners, etc. Praying and counseling, as well as door-to-door evangelism and the distribution of Bibles, new wills, pamphlets, and leaflets on the word of God.
Matthew 24:14
"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the entire world for a witness unto all
nations; and then shall the end come."
However, we also organize large Christian gatherings, evangelical trips from nation to nation, in churches, schools, hospitals, prisons, streets, cities, villages, and countryside to proclaim the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This is done through the distribution of Christian literature, books, tracts, Bibles, and New Testaments to new Christians, students, orphans, and prisoners. We evangelize, teach, exhort, strengthen souls through mass media, videos, evangelistic CDs, intercession, biblical competitions, personal evangelism, and radio broadcasting gospel evangelism.
