July 5, 2023From Building Buildings to Changing Lives
At Global Impact Ministries, we believe that people do not care how much you know until they know how much you care. As we build homes, schools, and hospitals, we are not just building buildings. We are seeing true life change. Families who come together in their new homes are finding shelter from the weather. Children are becoming students, expanding their knowledge through education in schools. Patients who come to get physical healing in clinics are being introduced to the Great Physician who can change the course of both their earthly and eternal lives.
These structures are tools for demonstrating the love of Christ by providing opportunities to thrive. In scripture, we are reminded to “Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.” (Philippians 2:4) Join us as we strive to first show, then show the love of Christ. We are not just building buildings. We are changing lives. Jesus’ Love to the Rescue!
From Building Buildings to Changing Lives
Brick and mortar, mud and grass,
Learning for children, a lifetime will last.
Constructed building, hospital beds,
People with needs, patients are fed.
Houses are built, foundations are laid,
Shelter is found, families are saved.
Workers unite, with sweat and tears,
Constructing buildings year after year.
Vision is clear, though buildings may range,
People affected; lives being changed.
Needs being met, friends being made,
Relationships built, day after day.
Love of Christ shown, shared and proclaimed,
Buildings are built, souls ever changed.
