GAiN provides psychosocial care, medical care, humanitarian supplies, clean water and food. In 2014 GAiN was able to work in 38 countries helping around 1.5 million people and exposing close to one million to the Gospel through the combination of the Jesus Film, the humanitarian project and our local staff and pastors sharing the Gospel. Al and Susan and their two children, Matthew (14) and Joshua (12) lived in Geneva and were members of the EBCG. Al served as a deacon and an elder during their time in the church. Susan helped lead the women’s ministry.
