Posts posts posts. Maybe I go to fast.
You remember the “Bank for Native Missionaries” I created? You remember reading about it at least. You remember that every month we were putting together some little money to send to Gospel For Asia so they could help our brothers and sisters in Asia who struggle to bring the gospel of Jesus to their countrymen? I haven’t wrote about the bank for a long while now simply because there was no money to send. To be honest, I had lost hope that people would give money.
Just a few days ago, I got an email from a friend. She told me she had some money for the Bank for Native Missionaries, she was going to send me 108. I was really surprised. I had no idea my friend kept putting change in her little bank to help the native missionaries of Asia. She counted all her change to find 108$. I thought she had forgotten a comma somewhere, she she didn’t.
I was greatly encouraged and impressed to see that simply putting change in a little container for a few months can be a treasure for native missionaries. So this is what my friend’s money purchased:
For a Dalit family (Dalits are the lowest caste of India’s society): a PAIR OF PIGS (60$)
For native missonaries : THIRTY SIX NEW TESTAMENTS (45$)
For native missionaries: 300 GOSPEL TRACKS (3$)
The Dalit family will be able to use the pigs for food and for producing more pigs. The native missionaries will use the NT and gospel tracks to distribute to people.
It’s amazing how much we can bring to those in need, just by simply putting aside some change, putting coffee money in a pot instead of in the coffee machine and etc. Thank you friend for not forgetting your brothers and sisters “out there”.
If you want to help you can send your money right to Gospel For Asia or to me so we put it all together and make bigger gifts out of our little change.
