Praise God! We have raised $8,487.00 for our brethren in Papau New Guinea, surpassing our initial goal of $ 6,600.00 by almost $2,000. 

 

During our initial assessment we had hoped to raise at least enough funds for three months supply of food, but we anticipated that there would be a need for up to four months' supply. Surplus donations will go towards meeting this anticipated need. Thank you for your prayers and support. We will keep you updated with the needs of our church family in Papua New Guinea.

The El Nino drought a​ffecting Papua New Guinea is taking its toll, and funds are needed to purchase food for our families there.

Dear Brethren,

The El Nino drought a​ffecting Papua New Guinea is taking its toll.

Our members and their children in Papua New Guinea are in great need of assistance. Members cannot access their food sources, namely their gardens, due to frost and drought. Over 10 weeks of no rain has meant that their dependence on the only water source to water their gardens has dried up. 

Funds are needed to purchase food.

Soon after I accepted Christ as my Saviour in 1975, my wife, Kathy, and I decided to visit our friends in Minnesota. While planning the trip, we decided that we would first stop by Wisconsin to visit my family, and from there we would head on up to Minnesota.

An object lesson from God's creation

“My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother.”

My father told me he’d like to see a bear during our trip. I told him there was a possibility we would see one, but after three hours on the road, we had seen much wildlife, but no bears.

True Education: a Science

 

“Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth” (2 Timothy 3:7). This surely describes today’s society—including much of Christendom, does it not? Sophisticated educational institutions and online courses plentifully abound in the information age with its vast technological advancements. Knowledge is certainly increasing.
