Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men; knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve. Colossians 3:23-24

The George H. Meyers Society recognizes those who have included Go To Nations in their financial or estate plans, made a significant charitable donation, or have made a legacy gift In Loving Memory or In Honor of a loved one. Through more than 40 years of ministry, legacy gifts have been an important funding source in helping us mobilize, equip, and send missionaries to the nations.
Through the lives, compassionate hearts, and giving spirits of those who follow their call by praying, sending, or going to those who have not heard, Go To Nations has taken the gospel of Jesus Christ to over 117 nations, seeing over two million accept Him as Savior.
MISSION OF LEGACY
Go To Nations is at a gateway as an organization committed to advancing the Kingdom of God. Established in 1981, we are now committed to a third generation strategy. Our first generation “Pioneers” followed a God-given mandate and laid the foundation for an international ministry. Our second generation “Builders” created infrastructure for growth and created key partnerships to increase global effectiveness. Our third generation “Advancers” are now strategically positioned for even greater local and global impact. One such “Pioneer” and “Builder” stands out as a Lifetime Achiever but more importantly, a husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather.
"Through faith and wisdom acquired true wealth, mentor others and leave an enduring legacy." –Dr. George Meyers
