The International GiveAway

Helping new international students for the past 17 years!

Imagine moving to a different country and all you have is what is in your suitcase. Incoming students from around the world have little with which to set up a new household. We want to help these students in their time of need and let them know they have friends here in Iowa City! We count it a privilege to welcome students, not just with our words, but also with our actions.

For God so loved the world that He GAVE His only begotten Son,  that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting" life --John 3:16 

New Students If you are a new international student and would like to receive items from our GiveAway, you must come to the GiveAway event on August 12th. There will also be more information provided to you at New Student Orientation about our program. On the 12th we will give you a ride to the church, allow you to pick out your furniture, give you a ride home, and then we will deliver your furniture to you! If you have questions about this program please contact Faith Baptist Church.  

"If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food , and one of you says to them, 'Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,' but you do not GIVE them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?" --James 2:15-16  

Would you like to contribute? The GiveAway helps students from around the world by giving them good used furniture and other necessary household items such as linens or kitchen items. We accept donations from April to August each year. If you would like to donate items to the GiveAway please email Pastor Jake at faithbaptist.jake@gmail.com or contact Faith Baptist Church.
