And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. (Matthew 8:28 – ESV)

Introduction

We join the songwriter in saying “that to God be the glory!” We also praise Him for all the great things he has done for us this month. It is our prayer and belief that our God will continue to extend his love unto us day after day. That is why we trust that all things work together for the good of those who are called even when we do not have answers to situations that come our way.

More Than A Leg To Stand On

Last month I had the privilege to be part of a short term mission trip to La Cieba, Honduras. It was a an incredible blessing to see and be a small part of the work that God is doing in La Cieba. On this particular trip, much of our days were spent working on construction projects in stifling heat and humidity. We had to drink a minimum of 8 liters of water each during the day to prevent dehydration, so water breaks were mandatory on the construction jobs. It was during one such water break that I found myself wishing for the comforts of home, such as air-conditioning and power tools.

Note From The Unite4Africa Board – June 2014 – John Tabor

johntaborI have been so privileged in my life to not only serve our great and glorious Lord but to participate with Unite 4 Africa in the many programs they have begun, nurtured and developed throughout Africa.

Africa is an amazing place! The people there are even more amazing! And yet, the ways in which we can serve the Lord there continue to grow. From one on one evangelism and mentoring to teaching about the sanctity of human life and Biblical sexuality in conference settings to teaching and preaching about God and His love for His people in churches and in the field…it is a place where one can really experience the John 17 unity that Jesus Himself prayed for.

I’d like to…

I will return again to my place, until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face, and in their distress earnestly seek me. (Hosea 5:15 – ESV)

Introduction

With hearts full of gratitude we join all the partners and donors of U4A to give thanks to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for the gift of life and the opportunity to share our lives with those that we came into contact with in the past month.

Bridges Training @ Yagbon

We had the privilege to visit a community called Yagbon in the Western Gonja district of the Northern Region. The community is located in an area normally referred to as “overseas” which becomes difficult in terms of accessibility as a result of high water levels of a river that has to be crossed before one can get to the area.

“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.”
(2 Corinthians 4:7)

We are the Jar. The treasure is what God has deposited within us. The jar has no value on it’s own. It’s only value and purpose is the treasure that it contains. We must be awakened to the all- surpassing power that lives on the inside of us, because if we are not, our lives will never reach beyond the level of the jar of clay.

We confirm this scripture to be true in our lives and ministry here in Ethiopia. God has been using us to proclaim the saving gospel to our community and nation and we have seen many lives being transformed by this surpassing power that is exhibited through us.

Note From The Unite4Africa Board – May 2014 – Jim Weisert

jim weisert1I try to spend time reading and or attending different lectures, conferences and seminars throughout each year that can help me become a better leader. Last week I attended the 2nd annual International Wholestic Missions Conference in Peoria AZ.

The unique thing about this conference is that the organizational host’s (Global CHE Network) approach to global missions is empowering communities to lift themselves up out of poverty who then train other local communities how to do the same. It is an incredibly successful approach to 21st century missions.

If you haven’t read the book “When Helping Hurts” and you’re involved in any kind of international or local serving organization, buy the book today, read it, and then make plans to attend next year’s International Wholestic Missions Conference being held Apr 29th – May 1st 2015. Your organization will become a great benefit to all you serve from the knowledge and applications you will learn.

Let me have the Leadership of CHE tell you about their approach:

“… When the Holy Spirit comes up on you, you will receive power…” (Acts 1:8)

The Holy Spirit is the greatest power we have while on this planet. There is no power on this earth that transforms the hearts of the people except the Holy Spirit. We have seen Him changing the lives of many people through the Word of God. What an honor and privilege for me to share with you and testify to His work that He has done in our midst.

I take this opportunity to thank the Holy Spirit for His wonderful and amazing work and for being a faithful comforter when we pass through hard times. Yes, the Spirit is really an amazing comforter indeed!

Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.—(Hebrews 7:25) – ESV

Introduction

It is always a great joy remembering the finished work of Christ on the cross that we who are weak and broken can enjoy an eternal hope. It is also gratifying having the knowledge that what Christ did was a complete work and that he has continued to intercede for us who are ready and willing to call on his name.

But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—(1Corinthians 2:9) – ESV

Introduction

It was all joy welcoming the U4A President and the film crew who spent two weeks in Northern Ghana on a mission that got accomplished beyond human imagination. Indeed, we cannot but join the Apostle Paul in saying that; no eye has seen nor ear heard nor heart of a man imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.

It is our fervent hope that you get a sense of the wonderful and powerful effect on people’s lives that, through your help, is blessed by God in the lives of many in Africa.

“Since you have in obedience to the truth purified your souls…love one another fervently from the heart” (1 Peter 1:22)

One of the supreme ethics that Christians are commanded to practice toward one another is love! Love demonstrates itself in concrete actions of service, compassion, kindness and generosity toward others.

I just want to thank all of you for loving God and His people not only in words but also in actions. I encourage you to continue doing this for His Glory.

Here under I am going to share with you few things about God’s amazing work in the country of Ethiopia…

And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. (John 10:16 ESV)

Introduction

A number of us are privileged to know the Saviour of the Lord which we praise God for. However, there remain several others who are not yet part of this wonderful love of the Lord. They too need to taste and see how good the love of the Lord is. God Bless those who are praying, giving or participating in any form to assist in getting the love of God extended to these ones. May your efforts continue to yield good results in Jesus’ name. Amen.
