PCG Global Missions

Global Impact

Global impact is the honest record of this mission: witness already given, and people still waiting. PCG Global Missions works to give every person one chance to hear the Gospel.

By Karl Hargestam, Global Missions Director

Approved record

THREE FIGURES. THEN THE DEPARTMENTS.

Two numbers name the scale, and one date names the evangelistic movement that has carried a public harvest. 3.37 billion people are still unreached. The Joshua Campaign began in Ethiopia in 1998 and reports 4.2 million decisions. Those are the figures this page is allowed to publish. Gift amounts and department stories stay on their own pages.

The phrase that holds the record together is simple: give every person one chance to hear the Gospel. Global impact is not a claim that the work is finished. It is an account of what has been entrusted to the Pentecostal Church of God, and of who is still waiting.

Karl Hargestam serves as Global Missions Director. The pages linked from here are the public departments, the nation record, and the research already on this site.
