A couple weeks ago I posted a BLOG entry called to the end of the earth that described some ways the Bezeugen Ministries is reaching the end of the earth. The English, Swahili and French versions of that tract should be coming from the printer soon. Today, I’d like to turn the attention to other efforts world wide to reach the ends of the earth. Here are three ministries that can use your prayers and financial support.
Evangelist Moses in Uganda
Since January 2009 I have been in contact with Moses in Uganda. He takes monthly mission trips around the country preaching the Gospel. Many people are coming to Christ. Through meeting Moses, I’ve been blessed to also get to know Pastor Steve Dollar of Grace Bible Church Troutville, VA. You can read more about Moses on the Grace Bible Church website. Today, I got an urgent prayer request from Pastor Steve. He writes:
I just found out this morning that Moses is in the hospital. I thought he was on the trip to produce our film but apparently he fell ill during the trip. He is in the hospital with typhoid and malaria. He has to pay for each day plus the drugs he uses. The cost will be several hundred dollars. This is an urgent plea for funds to you and to all those you know. If you can support our effort in this, please make checks to Grace Bible Church with a memo ‘For Moses Hospital’.
Thank you in advance for anything you can contribute.
The address is:
Grace Bible Church of Troutville, VA
2355 Stoney Battery Road
Troutville, VA 24175
Please be in prayer for Moses to get well soon so that he can get back out to serve the Lord. If you are lead to provide support for his hospital care, that would be wonderful.
ECC Mission Trip to Kenya
I started working with Empowerment Christian Center Dallas in November 2009. Our ministry provided training and then introduced them to door to door evangelism. Currently the church is going door to door in the Spanish speaking neighborhoods around their church inviting people to attend a new Spanish worship service that will being on May 16. Pastor Tony has shared with me that the church has plans to go on a mission trip to Kenya in June 2010. They are asking for prayers and financial support. Pastor Tony writes:
I thanks God from the bottom of my heart for your unwavering support to the ECC family as we execute the mandate God has given us. The Lord has laid such a burden in my heart for the victims of the recent civil unrest in Kenya. On the 4th of June 2010, The ECC mission team will leave for Kenya to minister to the Mbaruk IDP (Internally Displaced Persons) camp. As I write, these people are living in old leaking tents, have little if any food, deteriorating health conditions and the list goes on and on. Our Budget for the trip is $12000.00. This excludes the airfare (the missioners are paying the fare for themselves). Every dollar donated will benefit the residents of this camp. We need your help please. Together we can pull together and meet this goal. So come and let’s worship God
Proverbs 19:17 One who is gracious to the poor lends to the LORD, And He will repay him for his good deed.
For more details on the Kenya trip including how to make a tax deductible donation to support the effort please see the Kenya Mission 2010 article on the church web site.
Christ Assemblies International Ministries in Pakistan
This group is building a church in Pakistan. They have already acquired the land, cement and bricks. However, they still have a financial need to do the construction. Please watch this video with an update on their work.
It is my prayer that this church will be built to glorify God and bring many to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. Please pray for God’s work in Pakistan through these faithful brothers in Christ. For more information or to make a donation please visit their website. I have spoke with Jack Robbins at Lovem Ministries who personally knows the leadership of this group in Pakistan and has visited there a number of times.
Lovem Ministries
Lovem Ministries has a vision to have 250 counties in the United States praying for and supporting 250 countries. Please check out their web site for details on how to pray and support their efforts to win the world for Christ.
