James 4:13-15 How foolish it is to say, Today or tomorrow we will go into this town, and be there for a year and do business there and get wealth: When you are not certain what will take place tomorrow. What is your life? It is a mist, which is seen for a little time and then is gone. But the right thing to say would be, If it is the Lord's pleasure and if we are still living, we will do this and that. (BBE) ![]()
Frank is a young fired up single disciple in the Bangalore Church. Frank plays the drums for the Bangalore Church. The last month was very special as his dad became a disciple of Jesus. Few months back, Frank's dad Harry became paralyzed. From then on disciples started reaching out to him. But initially he was very resistant and was not willing to give up his sinful character like drinking, smoking, threatening his wife etc. But disciples persevered to study the Bible with him and it was great to see him responding to the word of God. He stopped all his bad habits and with humility he accepted Jesus as Lord in his life. He was added to God's kingdom in the last week of May. Now Frank's mother and his sister are studying the Bible.
Two of the cooperation plan committees are planning to add a more international mix to their memberships. The Campus Committee and the Church Builders Committee are both in the process of including a more international mix of disciples. The Church Builders, for instance, are wanting to expand their committee from six to 17, and to invite disciples from various nations to join the meetings. The campus committee has a similar plan. This year, for instance, there will be campus conferences in 20 different nations, and campus ministries are growing around the world. The Cooperation Plan (Unity Proposal) created 11 committees, and these committees are made up of volunteers who seek to serve our churches in various ways.
WHY DO THE NATIONS RAGE?
Great News: ZhengQiang, known as ZQ for most, and his wife Grace was appointed Evangelist and Woman Ministry Leader last Sunday, 21 June 2009. They have been serving in the ministry for about 15 years. Grace is also the sister of Joyce Ng, who is also a Woman Ministry Leader of the Singapore Central Christian Church. Both ZQ and Grace were incredible examples even as young disciples. Listen to the sharing by Wee Keong and Joyce.
His latest blog is about the immense amount of damage that AIDS has caused in Namibia. Over 10% of the population there is living with AIDS and there are over 66,000 AIDS orphans in just this one country. Here is an excerpt from his latest update:
“Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Ephesians 5:19-20 This was Paul’s call to all disciples of Jesus 2000 years ago, and it still applies today! So last weekend many teens and campus students (both disciples and our friends) from across the UK and Ireland gathered at the home of the Mobbs family to have a rock festival and “sing and make music” in our hearts. Indeed, it was a wonderful time of encouraging fellowship, deep conversations, bible lessons and, of course, music, all forthe glory of God!
Watch the video below to hear the story of the Dufours: a family destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. When they thought no one cared, HOPE worldwide stepped in and rebuilt more than just their house - they rebuilt their lives.
“A miracle really happened. And that miracle was that someone really did care and HOPE worldwide was one of those people"
The United States recently
donated $500,000 worth of medical
equipment to the hospital. Our free, life
saving programs would not be possible
without the support of donations like
this.
The US began its support of the hospital in 2003. Their donation of 85 pieces of medical equipment will go on to save thousands of lives, including the 3,000 HIV -positive patients that currently rely on the hospital.
