With summer fast approaching, school ending,
graduations, vacations, and weddings, the last thing on
your mind is more work. Your church is probably
planning a Vacation Bible School, a Block Party or even
a Mission Trip of some kind. What if the mission trip
came to Hannibal, even to your neighborhood, and
perhaps your street? That opportunity is exactly what
World Changers can provide for you and your church.
Last summer over 250 youth adults came to
Hannibal and worked on 22 houses for low income
families. They replaced 14 roofs, painted 4 houses, put
up siding on 2, replaced steps on 3, and insulated 4
other homes. When they were working they were able to
share the gospel with the community and reached out to
your neighbors. There was 1 person last summer that
God touched their heart and their eternal destination
was changed. 4 others rededicated their lives to God and
made a renewed commitment to attend church.
While World Changers were here your church
may have been one of those that provided lunch or even
an afternoon refreshment for a crew. WERE YOU
INVOLVED? National statistics tell us that only about
30% of the US claims to be a Christian. Only half of
that number attends church on a regular basis, this
means that less than 15% of American is in church on
Sunday. Most of your neighbors do not attend church
on Sunday and probably are lost and will spend eternity
in Hell. The same statistics tell us that 80% of your
neighbors WOULD attend church if someone would
simply ask them. This is the good news, you and your
church have the opportunity to change the number and
in turn be a World Changer.
July 26-Aug 1, over two hundred youth and
adults will be coming to Hannibal to work on low
income houses. They want to partner with you and your
church to minister to those in the home. We are looking
for volunteers to serve the week they are here, whether
you can help one day or all six we need your help. Check the Newsletter for ways that you can serve.
