March 2000 Sending Aid to Venezuela Flood Victims

Sending Aid to Venezuela

Many children and their families lost everything they had from the floods. Homes, clothing, personal belongings, - all gone!

By God's grace we sent 3 containers to help in the relief efforts to the flood victims. We shipped clothing, personal hygeine items, blankets, Care boxes, food itmes and christian literature. More than 100,000 pounds of relief supplies. These items will be distributed by the Council of Venezuelz Churches.

Please pray that these shipments are used wisely and that many will come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord.

This year we are expecting to distribute more than 2000 Care Boxes for ou Easter outreach throughout the inner cities of Los Angeles.

Please pray for the Children and their families that recieve our boxes and they read the gospel tracts and othe literature that we place in our care boxes.

Below is a poem from Tom Sweeney that we thought you would enjoy this Easter.

A Song to the Lord Jesus

I love you Jesus

You died just for me

Your love and grace filled my life with your peace
of mind

The kind of peace I wish that all humanity find

I need you Jesus

Keep hold of my hand

Without your light in this dark world I surely would fall

And I for one can hardly wait for your trumpet call

Come quickly Jesus

That some flesh be saved

Until you come your children will lead many to light

Ever striving that they might find favor in your sight

We praise you Jesus

Redeemer and Lord

You've filled our hearts with the sweet love for all mankind

We pray that you will keep our paths correctly aligned

I love you Jesus

You died just for me

Who'd ever think a great big wretched sinner like me

Could ever find his name upon your family tree

Thank you Jesus

Praise you Jesus

I love you Jesus

Kid's Kits Program

We started a program last year called Kid's Kits. This program consists of providing school items to low income children. These boxes contain: pens, pencils, erasures, notepads, rulers, markers, highlighters, and crayons. These boxes are distributed through out the year since so many children start at different times and many are in year round schools.

We need your help to keep this program going. Our biggest expense is purchasing and transporting the boxes. If you would like to be a part of our Kid's Kits Program, we would be delighted to hear from you. Remember, we always need volunteers to package our boxes. If you have some time, please call us. God Bless!
