Going the Distance, Themselves

College students from a Trinity Church, Redlands, CA group (Praxis) heard of the great need for Bibles in the EFC of Congo churches (CECU). Through their creativity, the sale of t-shirts, onesies, water and a concert they raised $7500 (about 1/4 of the funds collected for this project in 2008). CECU President Bosokpale wrote a heartfelt thank you letter to all who had contributed to this effort. He noted, "When a country enters into difficult times, people can distance themselves from God and there is a need for them and especially Christians to hold God's Word and read it day by day....It is our hope that through God's Spirit you will not forget this project of Bibles for Africa, for the spiritual lives of church workers and other Christians. May God bless you."

Help with the Bibles for Congo project.
