thankful-wreathEvery year, during these last few weeks, our readers have the opportunity to express their thanks for anything they’ve picked up through the year. Not that long ago, a dedicated reader and missions statesman dared Brigada participants to become “true fans” by giving a one-time gift of $100 to speed Brigada on its way to thousands of screens around the planet, taking with it, encouragement, resources, information, trends, and more. Many have already given. In fact, without even so much as a request, generous Brigada givers have already chipped in $3894.33 throughout 2014. Unfortunately, our budgeted costs (including a part-time assistant and hosting fees) come to a total of $17,120 per year. Many say that Brigada items help them accomplish their mission of reaching unreached peoples for our Lord Jesus Christ. Would you be willing to ask your church to make a special one-time year-end gift to enable Brigada to keep churning out the door and onto the screens of thousands of globally-minded mobilizers and Kingdom-hearted workers worldwide? You can choose either of two ways to donate: To give online, just scroll to the top of our website and click “Donate.” And you don’t need a PayPal account to give online. (If you reach a screen asking for your PayPal I.D., look on the left side of the screen, about halfway down, and find the prompt which says, “Continue without a PayPal Account.”) If you’d rather send an old-fashioned check, just make it payable to Team Expansion and send it to: Team Expansion (Brigada), 13711 Willow Reed Drive, Louisville, KY 40299, USA. (And by the way, Team Expansion is a 501(c)3 incorporation so, for USA citizens, your checks made out to Team Expansion are tax-deductible.) Thanks to those who have suggested this cause to their local church missions committees, mission teams, and/or missions ministers/pastors. We appreciate you!
