WAW Wednesdays: Prayers, Partners and Chickens

"The Word at Work is a ministry that mobilizes churches and individuals to answer God's call to minister to those in need," writes Rev. Tim Tam, Director of the Amarillo, Texas-based ministry. "Through our relationships, God reveals needs and opportunities for service. As we come along side the poor, new friendships develop and doors for ministry open. As we serve, God provides the resources to supply for the needs he reveals."



Prayers, Partners and Chickens


Friends,

We are so excited by your response to last week's message!! You have answered our prayer to fund the next container going to Belize, and we are so grateful!

As heard on television ... "But wait, there's MORE!"

Our friends in Roswell, New Mexico, are loading up computers, school desks, filing cabinets and more from a school that is being demolished there! This means another container is coming down the pike soon ... we are so encouraged by our Ministry Associates who are always on the lookout for opportunities like this!

We are told in Matthew 25:40 that what we do for the least of these, we do for Christ ... we have a wonderful partner, MAP International, that helps us provide life-saving medicines at an incredible discount ... $400 USD can literally provide upwards of $15,000 in meds ... we currently have a donor helping us provide medications to the Belize prison infirmary each quarter; we could send even more medicines for more of the least of these with your help. Would you leverage your tithe and help us in this effort?

Please please fill out this Commitment Card and return it to our office!

Finally, lets talk chickens! We are really excited about a chicken coop that our friends from Texas have provided at the King's Children's Home!! The plan is to start off with a flock of 200 hens! This photo shows the beginning stages ... watch for an updated photo on our Facebook page!

Our first team of the summer arrives in Belize this Friday - please keep our staff members and this group working in the Valley of Peace in your prayers.

Thanks for your time,

Tim Tam
The Word at Work
