ORPHAN<br />

CARE<br />

THANK YOU very much for <strong>the</strong><br />

Multiply newsletter you sent.<br />

It was such a blessing to read.<br />

God enlightened me in a special<br />

way through your newsletter.<br />

I am a pastor and I have<br />

a ministry in Malawi and<br />

Mozambique. My ministry<br />

emphasises preaching in<br />

villages where <strong>the</strong> Gospel does<br />

not very much reach. I minister<br />

to <strong>the</strong> <strong>poor</strong> in <strong>the</strong> villages. I also<br />

have orphanage care centres in<br />

<strong>the</strong> villages, taking care for <strong>the</strong><br />

children who are orphans. We<br />

need your prayers in all <strong>the</strong>se<br />

areas <strong>of</strong> our ministry. It will be a<br />

blessing if you publish about my<br />

orphan care centres.<br />

when a group <strong>of</strong> young Christians<br />

challenged <strong>the</strong>mselves to get hold <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> reality <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir faith and calling<br />

in God”. Download it, toge<strong>the</strong>r with<br />

ACTS 2<br />

INTEREST<br />

HI THERE, my name is Oliver<br />

Cleary. I am 32 and single with<br />

no kids. I am a firm believer<br />

in <strong>Jesus</strong>. At <strong>the</strong> moment, I am<br />

praying continually for direction<br />

in my life for service to people.<br />

I came across <strong>the</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> <strong>Army</strong><br />

and I was very touched by <strong>the</strong><br />

love that you guys seem to<br />

advocate. More so, I was very<br />

interested in <strong>the</strong> similarities<br />

to Acts chapter 2 and <strong>the</strong><br />

communal living that <strong>the</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong><br />

<strong>Army</strong> has to <strong>of</strong>fer. I would be<br />

very interested to have such<br />

an experience with you guys.<br />

Please get in touch with me<br />

on how to go forward with <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Jesus</strong> <strong>Army</strong> and how I could<br />

<strong>of</strong>fer myself in service to o<strong>the</strong>rs.<br />

LONGING FOR<br />

PROXIMITY<br />

I AM REALLY interested in<br />

<strong>the</strong> idea <strong>of</strong> Christians living<br />

in community. I have spent<br />

some time on your site and<br />

having read all that is <strong>the</strong>re. I<br />

was hoping to find out a little<br />

information on how community<br />

works. I live in <strong>the</strong> US and<br />

strongly feel that living in<br />

proximity is a significant part <strong>of</strong><br />

what Christianity should be.<br />

I would like to talk to<br />

someone who can explain who<br />

you are to me better if it’s<br />

possible. Thanks.<br />

FRUSTRATION<br />

AT COMPROMISE<br />

FRUSTRATED and alone and passionate about sharing <strong>the</strong> gospel<br />

on <strong>the</strong> streets <strong>of</strong> our local town, but church won’t hit <strong>the</strong> streets<br />

with me!<br />

I don’t want anything <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> world, but it seems most <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

congregation is satisfied with what <strong>the</strong> world has to <strong>of</strong>fer. I want<br />

to live my life for <strong>Jesus</strong>. I want to bring up my boys focusing and<br />

leaning on Him, but I also need to be part <strong>of</strong> a fellowship that<br />

walks in <strong>the</strong> Spirit, that’s all out for <strong>Jesus</strong>, no compromise! But as<br />

I walk <strong>the</strong> streets and look around, <strong>the</strong>re’s no-one <strong>the</strong>re!<br />

Please pray, please help, please encourage. I need your help<br />

and guidance.<br />

me New Dawn as it has helped<br />

me a lot. There are a lot <strong>of</strong><br />

things going on in my life at<br />
