BUSINESS BY THE BOOK

In today's competitive and confusing business environment, believers are looking for answers to the tough questions they face every day. Fortunately, God's plan for a Christian in business is right in the Bible.

Pray for the Business by the Book seminar presented by Crown Financial Ministries this week-end.
Ask God that it will challenge believers in Namibia to apply biblical principles to every aspect of their business.
Trust God that business people will:

• Develop a clear and compelling sense of purpose for being in business.
• Learn how to make profitable financial decisions by applying biblical wisdom to key result areas.
• Discover how to trade concern over profit and loss for a genuine peace of mind.
• Replace fear of failure with confidence.
• Be equipped to answers the difficult questions in their world from the Bible.

Pray God's blessing on business people and businesses in Namibia, that they will prosper and become a blessing to the nation!

2010 A "PROMISING YEAR"

Bank of Namibia (BoN) Governor Tom Alweendo believes 2010 will be a “promising year” in which the economy of Namibia is projected to grow by “at least 4,2 per cent”. The central bank chief said there were “strong signs” of recovery everywhere and that it looks as if the global recession will not be a prolonged one.

Estimations are that the Namibian economy shrunk by one per cent last year, he said. “2010 should be a good year for all of us,” the Governor said though. The BoN’s growth projections for this year see the Namibian economy outperforming the world economy. The International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) has forecasted world economic growth of 4,0 per cent for 2010. Alweedo expects a recovery in tourism, construction, diamond mining and strong growth in the uranium mining sector.
