Welcome

by Jerome Gayle, President

Dear Reader,

Let me warmly welcome you to the first edition of our bi-monthly newsletter. We hope as you read, you will find, encouragement, inspiration and a desire to commit to the finishing of God’s work on this side of eternity whether by starting your own lay project or partnering with us through your financial contributions. In light of the impending crisis which is about to hit us with an overwhelming surprise, the command is given “Go forward" should be the Christian's watchword. Testimonies volume 4, pg. 28.

let us all without delay, lay all on the altar in finishing the work as failure to act now, will result in us doing the work under much duress in light of the impending global legislation mandating everyone to worship the beast. The pen of inspiration states the following:

“It was the joy of Christ to save souls. Let this be your work and your joy. Perform all duties and make all sacrifices for Christ's sake, and He will be your constant helper. Go straight forward where the voice of duty calls; let no seeming difficulties hinder you. Take up your God-given responsibilities, and as you bear your sometimes heavy burdens, do not ask, “Why idle stands my brother, no yoke upon him laid?” Do the duty nearest you, and do it thoroughly and well, not coveting praise, but working for the Master because you belong to Him. —The Southern Watchman, April 2, 1903.

Christ’s followers have been redeemed for service. Our Lord teaches that the true object of life is ministry. Christ Himself was a worker, and to all His followers He gives the law of service,—service to God and to their fellow men.… The law of service becomes the connecting link which binds us to God and to our fellow men. —Christ’s Object Lessons, 326.

As you peruse our newsletter you will sense all the initiatives taken are rather ambitious, whether they have started, or they are pending. As an organization we strongly believe in utilizing the talents that God has given us to hasten his coming and to mobilize a greater force, so we can all go home soon.

Being involve in mission brings much challenges, disappointments and frustrations. However, the joy it brings far outweighs the latter. Much of our frustration exist as a result of lack of funding and other human resources. It is my desire today that as you read and see the needs that the spirit of God will impress your heart to invest in bringing souls to his kingdom. Will you answer the Macedonia call today with a heartfelt tax-deductible gift or volunteer your time to some of our existing needs? God bless.
