Giving Tuesday 2025: Why A Van Matters

Faith on the Move in Ghana

In Ghana, attending church isn’t as simple as driving across town. For many believers in rural villages, the journey to worship can take hours on foot—over rough roads, through rain or heat, and often with young children in tow.

At one of our Trinity Foundation churches outside of Kumasi, Pastor Peter Antwi knows this challenge well. Each Sunday, families from several surrounding villages want to attend church, but distance and lack of transportation often stand in the way. Some walk miles to get there. Others stay home because they simply have no way to come.

The Challenge of Reaching Everyone

For years, Pastor Peter and his team have done everything possible to make church accessible. They’ve borrowed vehicles when they could, or used small taxis to pick up a few people at a time. But each week, dozens are still left behind—not because they don’t want to come, but because they can’t get there.

A dependable church van would change everything.
It would allow Pastor Peter to gather children for Sunday school, bring elderly members safely to worship, and make it possible for entire families to attend together. It would also help the church reach nearby villages, providing transportation for outreach events, youth gatherings, and special services.

More Than a Vehicle — It’s a Way to Bring People Together

In Ghana, a church van is more than transportation—it’s ministry in motion. It represents belonging, opportunity, and connection. Each trip to pick up a family is a reminder that the church isn’t just a building—it’s people coming together to worship, learn, and grow in faith.

When Global Servants provides a van, we’re not just giving a vehicle—we’re helping make church possible for people who otherwise couldn’t come. Every mile driven carries people closer to God and closer to one another.

The Road Doesn’t End at $20,000

This year, our Giving Tuesday goal is to raise $20,000 to purchase a new van for Pastor Peter Antwi’s church in Ghana.

But the road doesn’t end at $20,000.

Every dollar given beyond that goal will help fund our Clean Water Projects—digging new wells and providing water filter kits for families across Ghana.

• $10,000 can build a new well that provides clean water for an entire village
• $50 provides a water filter kit for a family

Together, we can help Pastor Peter bring more people to church and bring clean water to their communities.
