Donations
In addition to prayer support and
volunteer efforts, financial support is graciously accepted and used for the
glory of God and the building up of his kingdom!
We welcome contributions either towards specific ministries or "where needed
most". We know that God moves individuals with specific burdens, and
directed contributions in turn ensure strong prayer support: "where
your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Luke 12.34). Below are
listed some specific giving opportunities for 2010.
Equip Disciples is a 501(c)(3) ministry (see
IRS
determination letter) and a Nonprofit corporation in the State of Texas.
All donations are tax-deductible for Federal Income Tax purposes.
Donations are accepted online or by mail. To donate by mail, send gift to:
Equip Disciples 2126 Belmont Park Drive Arlington, TX 76017-4534
Gifts postmarked by December 31 of a year are deductible for
that year.

and trips to Africa cost $1,000's. Donations can be given in preference
of an individual's expenses.
| Africa: |
- airfare costs $1800 to $3000
- 1-week's expense is about $380
|
| Costa Rica: |
- airfare ranges from $400 to $650
- 1-week's expense is about $250

Many pastors and church leaders in Africa don't have a single
resource for studying the Bible. Some don't even have a complete Bible.
A study Bible provides a much needed and much used resource. Bibles for
children are also highly prized.

Costa Rica among the Cabecar.
