Many Countries this year have experienced a great Christmas season. Gifts, Dinners, Friends and Family but this year in Nigeria they experienced something far differrent at Christmas!
As you know last month we were so happy to be able to tell you the wonderful revival of Apostolic Truth that is breaking out in the major city of Abuja in Nigeria! European Apostolic Outreach sent one of our own ministers, a Nigerian brother who came to truth in the Augsburg Apostolic Lighthouse Church down to Nigeria to preach a crusade proclaiming ONE LORD ! ONE FAITH! ONE BAPTISM! and showed you the many pictures of the wonderful response of the men women boys and girls who had NEVER heard Acts 2:38 salvation preached to them before! We purchased land there and are currently endeavouring to do all we can to actually put up a building where these people can worship God in Spirit and TRUTH! Right NOW we have men women boys and gilrs that we have baptized in Jesus Name and prayed through to the Holy Ghost down there in Abuja right in the middle of all that!
This week, This Christmas week in Abuja, was a dreadful turmoil and upheaval of demonic lashing out against those who have ANY kind of faith or Belief in Jesus Christ! While YOU and I were enjoying Christmas presents , Turkey and Cranberry Sauce, Pumpkin Pie and more THIS is what these dear people had to go through Christmas Morning......
Christmas Morning Bombs exploded at Christian Churches all over the City of Abuja targetting those coming to celebrate The coming of Jesus our Messiah,
Over Forty people were dismembered, incinerated or bled to death in the brutal bloodthirsty attacks, THIS IS WHERE WE ARE REACHING OUT WITH TRUTH FOR THE SALVATION OF THESE MEN AND WOMEN!
One of the hardest, most humiliating parts of being a missionary is that constant feeling of having to beg for help NOT for Lexus cars or Giorgio Armani suits, but merely the FUNDS to BE HERE TO PREACH SALVATION TO THESE PRECIOUS PEOPLE!
What makes it so humiliating That after you have swallowed hard and asked for help, you have to face the ability of so many to HEAR the plea and then LOOK THE OTHER WAY "Someone ELSE will help them".
That song pierced me so deeply when I heard Brother Ewings Daughter Sis Vonnie Lopez Sing it...
"The World Needs Jesus But Why Should I Tell You?
You're Busy With No Time To Spare
They're Dying Without Him
Who's Known By Just A Few
How Long Then This Thought Can You Bear"
We are so deeply thankful for those brethren that really care about the lost AND about Jesus commission to Go YE Into All The World And Preach The Gospel To Every Creature...."
But so many have YET to come to that level of Christian Maturity where when they hear the plea of Missionaries for HELP! That they say in their hearts "TELL ME WHAT THEY NEED LORD! IF I HAVE IT, I'LL GIVE IT IF I DON'T PUT IT IN MY HAND AND IT'S THEIRS! I ***WON'T**** LOOK AWAY!!"
So here once again is a missionary pleading for help! Help us to establish the work not only here in the Heart Of Europe where OVER 750 MILLION precious people need Jesus But also in our outreach into Nigeria a nation of over 150 MILLION people who must someday stand in front of God.
If you can be a part of bringing the Gospel to Europe and Africa and would like to NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY but pitch in and HELP our offerring address is below at the bottom of the post.
Once again we commend to you some of the most precious saints I have ever known....
Brother and Sister Brian Shell their son Austin and daughter Kaelyn who have committed their hearts to LEAVE ALL and come help work with us Shoulder to Shoulder to do EVERYTHING WE CAN to save these people so that they too can be the very children of God!
