Love Can Build A Bridge


Church receiving bike
In this season of giving we would like to share with you what can happens when we share what we have to help someone else in need.  The Sunday School department of the Full Gospel Interdenominational Church in Manchester, CT has a vision to not only teach the young people about trusting and believing in God, but also to instill in them that they are never too young to make a difference in the lives of others around the world. Each class has a mission project in which the students raise money to either clothe the naked, feed the hungry or meet some need on the mission fields. Some of the classes raised money to purchase bicycles for workers in the DR Congo and Zambia. Below you will read how the pastors felt when they received those bikes. 
  
Thanking God for the gift

 "Greetings. We write to you today, thanking our beloved brothers and sisters from Sunday School for sending us the money to buy a bicycle for one of our pastors here in DR Congo.  We purchased the bike and brought it to the church. The entire Sunday School along with all our church members received the gift with great joy! Everyone began praying and thanking God for the young people that had a heart to give. May God bless you." ~Pastor Ngoy

Giving bicycle to a Pastor
"Bishop Misika from Zambia welcomed the bicycle and put it to the test, pedaling it around the church before it would be taken to a pastor in Mumbwa. Pastor Chilfufya took the bicycle all the way to Mumbwa and gave it to the pastor. This pastor will be using the bike to cover over 9 miles to lead church services. God bless you and thank you for your giving." ~Bishop Misika


Love has truly built a bridge from the hands of the Sunday sShool children all the way to Africa; a highway of hope was created. Someone saw the need and gave to it.  Today it is a prayer answered!  We encouraged you, right now, to continue building bridges of hope through your giving. Your gift of love will be sent from your hands and travel the miles to make a difference in someone else's life today!
