new report

is Church planting effective in communities?

A man gave his testimony last Sunday in Congo. He said that in the past, he was trapped by  drinking a lot. He was living with a woman and they had some children. 

One day he  saw there was a new church in his community. One that he could get to. It was called AMSAR Church. He was warmly welcomed by the people. As he listened to the teachings, he realized that Jesus was the answer to his needs. He rushed forward to the altar to give his life to this Saviour that he had heard about. 

Fast forward to last Sunday....he testifies that he is free from alcohol, he married his partner, and he now teaches Bible Studies!!

When Jesus burst burst out of that tomb, your destiny and mine were4 forever changed. Our chains fell off! Death no longer gets the final word. His resurrection guarantees yours. "Because I live," Jesus promised, "you will live also" (John14:19)

I am eternally grateful 💗

2024

Remember that the gift of Christ, Immanuel, is our greatest treasure, not just at Christmas, but for the whole year through.

We need His presence with us every single day.

We need His wisdom, strength and power to be present in us to make us strong and courageous for the road ahead.

God has promised that He will never leave us, that He will be our Refuge and our Strength, and an ever-present Help in trouble.

Our world desperately needs peace and hope. It can only be found in the Prince of Peace. I pray that God will help us to be generous and kind, and look to the needs of others this year.

Let us pray together that God will strengthen His servants, scattered around the world, to be the hands and feet of Jesus--especially in places where war, violence, famine, and sickness are devastating families and communities.

"all human helpers are channels, but God is the inexhaustible Source." Dr. Chidi Okoroafor

May we make a difference in this world. May we see His goodness this year.

Let's enter 2024 ready to live the life He wants for us!

Happy New Year everyone!

Merry Christmas

 When Jesus was born, the night sky exploded with light as the angels appeared and sang to the shepherds.

33 years later, when He died, the daylight became dark for 3 hours.

“There has just been discovered, a short statement, in the Chinese historical record, that has shocked some people.

It was an eclipse in China on the same day that Jesus was crucified, but was found to be unexpected, and prolonged, and somehow reversed. A usual eclipse is a few minutes long, but this one was for 3 hours, as recorded in the Gospels, and the darkness was extreme.”

Jesus is the LIGHT of the world.

May He shine in your hearts and homes this season!

 Support was just sent this week to the D.R.Congo!
