Inspire me / Inspire us
Have you ever been inspired? Recently I have read an article from our associational newsletter and responses from others on our Leadership Team that inspired me. There are so many people that our Lord wants us to reach out to and be the hands and feet of Jesus. Please see below of ways we can be inspired and inspire others in the Spanish ministry. Thank you Elizabeth Walters for brainstorming this:
In the Associational Newsletter which goes to your churches, last month and this month, tells about the project to bring Manuel and Raquel Chakarij here to live and work with the Hispanic church on Newsome Road in Salisbury.
1. We need to pay for them a place to live here in Salisbury, an apartment, or whatever we can find at a good price. If you know of something available that would be a start. Jonas is looking for a place even though we do not have the money to move them yet. (This is called faith!)
2. The church gives them traveling expenses to come from Indian Trail each Sunday. I think Jonas has in the church budget a small stipend for them, not much.
3. The project will be for a year and then we will re-evaluate it to see if we will continue. Hopefully it will be continued, depending on how many churches help.
4. They would need household items such as bed, dresser, dining table, chairs, sofa, desk and bookcase, and whatever else. If the place they rent has a stove and refrigerator that would be great. They will need kitchen items also. Just the two of them, no children involved.
Please be in prayer to get involved and be inspired to do something. Share this information to those around you. Being Jesus' hands and feet can inspire others.
May our Lord continue to bless each of you and your families and keep everyone safe this summer season.
Christ love,
Jeannie Patterson
