SUPPORT CHRISTIAN RADIO


Radio Channel 7  from Media Network for Christ Namibia is hosting their annual fundraising drive from 30 July to 3 August. This project allows Channel 7 to broadcast  24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Channel 7 has currently about 33 transmitters and is heard in 43 towns across Namibia. The station's vision is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ in Namibia and across borders by proclaiming all media. They broadcast in places that are not financially viable, ie not only in towns but also on farms and settlements. Although advertising revenue is a source of income,  the annual radiothon fundraiser raises 40% of the total revenue requirement.

Listeners will have the opportunity to participate in this great event as volunteers and  listeners will be challenged to partner financially. For more information, listen to
Channel 7 or contact  Tersia Bindeman (061) 420 850/875  tersia@k7.com.na

  • Please pray for the many volunteers that will help in the effort. 
  • Trust God that the media links during the drive will work without hick ups.
  • Pray for open hearts - individuals and business who want to support the effort of Channel 7 to spread the gospel.
  • Call on God that the fundraising will take place in the power of the Holy Spirit and that the results will be His blessing. 
  • Commit the leadership and board of Radio Channel 7 to the Lord - that finances will be well spend.
My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,  so that your faith might not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.  1 Corinthians 2:4-5

SERVING THE VULNERABLE IN NAMIBIA



David L. Meyer - CEO Hand of Hope writes: Our trip to Africa ended in Namibia where Hand of Hope sponsors a feeding program and leadership training. With the help of Dawie and Chrisna Fourie of the African Leadership Institute and in partnership with the Namibian Life Change Centers Foundation, Hand of Hope is feeding almost 1,500 children every day in Namibia. In addition, over 400 disadvantaged youth are trained every year in leadership and character development through Hand of Hope's partnership with The Rock Training Center in Namibia - something they would never be able to experience without this program.

God's favor is overwhelming and is allowing us to make a difference in the lives of people here in Namibia and around the world. Thanks to all of our partners and friends who allow us to help those in need.

Hand of Hope is the missions arm of Joyce Meyer Ministries. Our goal is simply to help as many hurting people as we possibly can, to alleviate human suffering and to help Christians grow in their faith. 


Praise God for organizations like Hand of Hope and the Namibian Life Change Centers Foundation who has a heart for the vulnerable in Namibia. Pray that they will continue and expand. The need is so much more. Drought has place a growing burden on the economy and government. Trust that God will touch and change hearts to do even more.

Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor. Luke 7:22

TEACH EVERY NATION (TEN)


To help equip pastors in Namibia who was called to lead a church but has little or no formal training and make them part of a continuous educational process, Turn the Tide Namibia wants to introduce Teach Every Nation (TEN) this week. This initiative by Dr Bruce Wilkinson focuses on training and equipping these pastors and will be launched in Southern Africa Sept 11-14.

To introduce this new initiative Martin Deacon from Turn the Tide will be here in Windhoek to share with key pastors and leaders how they can be involved with this exciting and powerful strategy of TEN on the 2nd of July 2013.

The dream is that pastors from all regions and towns in Namibia would be part of TEN. Please pray for the event on Tuesday 2nd July 2013 where we will hear how to become part of raising the level of pastoring in Namibia. Pray also for the launched in Southern Africa Sept 11-14. There are thousands and thousands of small churches lead by pastors who need to set the example, study, apply and teach the Word, care and council their members and show them how to love God and love their neighbors.

Intercede for the church and their leaders, for their role and example here in Namibia.
