Through Speed the Light, our missionaries are provided the tools they need to speed the gospel around the world. And they are grateful for the sacrifices students have made and continue to make so that people can hear the message of hope. If every student gave just $100 to STL each year, every missionary's vehicle and equipment needs would be met!
Here are just a few of the testimonies we've received from our missionaries and the students who have sacrificed:

Greetings,
It's been another "interesting" few weeks here in [this country]. Security continues to deteriorate and friends of mine are increasingly going to meet the Lord at the hands of evil men here in this land. Ugh.
Numerous times in the past two weeks, I've woken up in the middle of the night with tasks and contingency plans flying through my mind. On a few of these nights, I've made a mental note to write to you!
Well, I'm having a down day today (since it's our Sabbath on Fridays). And I'm thankful for many things...ONE OF THEM BEING MY STL VEHICLE. The threats continue to come, we are not allowed to walk anywhere, and I doubt that will change in the next few months.
In these times (and in better ones), I've used my STL vehicle for myself and to provide rides to others who don't have cars. THANK YOU! In the next few weeks, I'll be needing to move a lot of materials to other locations as people are leaving or aren't feeling comfortable keeping such materials in their homes. Once again, my STL vehicle will be needed. Please pray for our safety as the checkpoints are many these days.
So, in this thankful moment, I thought I'd just pause long enough to say thanks to you and all the others who help us get vehicles. I do not know if I will have the chance to thank you again. Please pass on our utmost thanks to all the others who make this dangerous, but necessary, ministry possible.
In Him,
Missionary
