Praise Report for August

This blog post serves as a continuation of the previous post Maybe that is all that is needed? As a huge debt of gratitude goes out to the families of our church who have cheerfully given clothes and kids toys to help raise funds, not only for the anticipated Mission trip to Africa. But also help raise financial support for indigenous pastors across North Africa and in Tanzania. My wife and I had an opportunity to sell much of these donated goods through Here We Grow Again, a consignment sale that caters to the needs and interests of families with small children. And as this current school year has already gotten underway, this was the best time to have on hand all the donated items we had. Once again, a sincere gratitude goes out to the local Body of Christ.
Through the earnings made by participating, a total $100.00 has been raised. $25.00 of which will be given to support the evangelical work of Arabic Bible Outreach Ministry. $20.00 will be designated to the work of the Topeka Rescue Mission. And a $10.00 amount will go to support an undisclosed adoptive family. The remaining $50.00 will help cover the costs of going to Africa.
