Giving in 2013

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen. (Philippians 4:19-20, ESV)

The above chart shows the total giving to our ministry in 2013. Each segment represents a donor (individuals or churches). If you are one of those people - THANK YOU!

What does the chart tell us? 

Well about half of the gifts we receive come from 5 or 6 larger donors. However the other half is made up of about 60 individuals/couples who pledge a monthly, quarterly or annual donation. The average gift from this group is around 30 GBP (50$) per month.

What's the message?

In missions, we need both the larger and the smaller donors. Everyone is important and everyone has a part to play – as the supermarket slogan says "every little helps". If you would like to find out more about joining our support team* click here.

We also need people who will support us in prayer. There are 600 people who receive our quarterly prayer letter or monthly update. To join these people in praying for us and the ministry of CEF click here and complete the short form.

*we do need new regular supporters

Mission-net Congress Attracts Almost 3,000 Young Europeans

Italians who attended the CMLC in Kilchzimmer last year were helping us promote "the next" course.

The CEF stand looked very professional and attracted a lot of interest. 

Over 100 mission agencies were represented at 3 main locations.

There was an amazing atmosphere at the New Years Eve party.

A group of Italians came and asked me about CEF. At the same time, Gary (same name but originally from Bolivia and living in Italy) was walking past. I grabbed him and said, "you did the course 2012/13, tell these people all about it - in their own language."
