Statement of Faith
We believe: in the inspiration
of the Bible in God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; in the virgin birth of
Christ; in His blood atonement and bodily resurrection; in salvation by
grace through faith in Christ alone; in New Testament soul winning, and in
the personal return of Jesus Christ. |

Accountability
Each ministry partner provides both a
budget for the year in advance and an audit of the year in review. A
representative from Global Fellowship office travels to each partner
ministry at least every two years to insure that funds are being used as
designated and as requested by the partner ministry. |
Financial Policy
Global Fellowship sends 100% of your
gift where it is designated. We
do not deduct any
amount or percentage from donations for administrative expenses.
GIVING FORM
|
|
The key to this issue is trust, built
on relationships before the Lord. Trust, however, does not negate the need
for audits, reviews, and guidelines for all to follow.
Ministry leaders and
workers are expected to live and work according to the standards of
Scripture for a holy life before the Lord. |
Ministry Philosophy
Global Fellowship exists to serve
indigenous ministries. This service takes many forms including
financial assistance, technological assistance, prayer, relief, and human
resources as well as spiritual encouragement, exhortation, and equipping.

|
Dependence
Each Ministry partner has agreed to
the local fund-raising of 51% funding of operational expenses within their
own region. Independence is critical in the financial sense.
Historically, significant local
funding has been the best long-term hedge against dependence. Local funding
also provides a natural pool of prayer, volunteers, and new workers.
Partnership
Scripture says that we are one body of
believers with one head--Jesus Christ. We believe that it is our joy to
share our resources with other members of the body so that they may more
effectively carry out the work that God has given to them.
Global Fellowship enjoys the fruit
of wonderful relationships built over many years of working together for the
glory of God for the salvation of the world. |
