SermonAudio.com - Mission in Mozambique
As summer turns to fall, many of us are getting a little more deliberate in our actions. One of the goals we hold as a small local church is to raise $35,000.00 this year in order to purchase a permanent location for the FIEL Bookstore in Mozambique.
Dr. Charles Woodrow has been used mightily of the Lord in that land as a medical missionary, but one of his other goals is to get excellent Christian literature (of a mostly Reformed persuasion) into the hands of national pastors. This is crucial. Rich Denham of FIEL Ministries came along one day and offered to help. They have been translating into Portuguese and printing books for years now. This is a primary language in the African country of Mozambique, so they offered to supply materials at less than cost. Mozambique is the thrid poorest county in the world.
We want to buy the building this ministry operates from in order to give them a permanent home in Nampula. Currently they are forced to rent. I would urge you to download this sermon to hear more of the work in Mozambique. And if you would like to contribute to the work, you could mail a cheque to: Grace Fellowship Church, c/o 28 Elmhurst Dr. / Toronto, ON / M9W 2J5. Make a cheque payable to Grace Fellowship Church and note in the comment section that it is for the Woodrow Book Ministry. Every penny will go there and we will be glad to mail you a tax receipt.
Praise the Lord!

Yes, I too encourage people to listen to the audio and to contribute to this great need, if the Lord leads. I give thanks to God for Dr.Woodrow and his family and praise God that we can have a part in serving Christ and making Him known in this way. Let us remember him in prayer as well. Soli Deo Gloria,
David
Kerux,
ReplyDeleteDoes your church work with them on any short term missions work?
Not yet. We felt the funds we could raise we be much better spent buying the bookstore than flying us over there.
