The apostle, Peter, being filled with the Holy Spirit stood up in front of the Jewish rulers and said,
"Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
Lisa and I do missionary work for one reason: Jesus is the only way to God and people need to know about Him. It is true that we begin feeding children because they were starving but it was the love of God that lead us there. In 2005, Lisa and took the money out of our pocket to feed 25 children and God blessed those little ones. A lot of changes have taken place. With God's help we built a kindergarten for those 25 then an elementary school then a middle school then a high school. Today those 25 children are getting ready to start their junior year in high school. Praise the Lord.
But you now what is really amazing. By giving our heart to those 25 children God has allowed us to help over 1,000 children ... that's right ... over 1,000 children to get the food, medicine and education they need to help stop the cycle of poverty in their villages.
But do you want to know what is truly amazing ... these children are getting saved. They are learning slowly to believe in Jesus' name. They are committing their lives to Christ. They are proclaiming the name of Jesus Christ for their salvation.
Here are the ones who accept Christ this year from our school:
Salama, Mary, Sandra, Mesalim, Linet, Katana, Moses, Emmanuel, Ali, John, Fadhili, Brian, Lucas
I had the great privilege of being a part of their baptism as they publicly told their village that they believe in Jesus because there is no salvation in any other name but not just them their parents and brothers and sisters have also accepted Christ. There were 33 baptized this day!!
