Chief Executive Director SDB Missionary Society
Please consider discussing with your church and family about adding some of these to your end-of-year giving. Some of our SDB families have made it part of their year-end tradition to select items from our suggested gift list to support the ministry work of our SDB brethren around the world. During this season, let us celebrate the greatness of our Father’s love, with the greatest gift of all, Christ Jesus, by sharing with our SDB brethren around the world.
We hope that you will prayerfully consider how the blessings you have received may help you be involved in God’s ministry through the Missionary Society.
“for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need. Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account. I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
—Philippians 4:16-20
