A Time To Move Forward
This is September and we now see the children and university students back in the fall classes. We at Jesus Every Day Ministries are also beginning a new fall routine. One of the dreams that we had when beginning J. E. D. Ministries was to be able to either start new churches or to help struggling ones. We have this latter opportunity now.
Beginning this month our President, Pastor Jed N. Snyder will be a consulting Elder with the Beracah Bible Baptist Church for what we expect to be six months to a year. He will provide leadership training, modeling, teaching, administrative assistance, counseling and what ever else the Lord shows. Pastor Richard Fleming is a devout godly man who has a wonderful family, a good grasp of God’s Word and a great heart to reach the lost here and around the world. He began a new church some time ago and now needs some help to keep it moving forward where the vision from the Lord desires.
It is with excitement that we accept this challenge in part because Pastor Fleming intentionally wants his fellowship to be multicultural and trans-denominational. While the doctrine and practice are from the Baptist tradition what is most important is that the church family be as Biblical as possible. This is a worthy goal and one, while not unique, gives us great opportunities to see God do a fellowshipping work from many parts of the metro region and even from around the world.
How can you help?
- Pray fervently for God to direct and bless. Without the work of the Holy Spirit we can do very little that is eternally good.
- Give financially to support J. E. D. Ministries so that we can move forward with this new opportunity.
- If you live locally you can come with us to help either temporarily or long term. We need nearly every present day spiritual gift to be used to bless others and grow this work.
- If you can tell others who are new in the area, are looking for a fellowship or are not being fed where they now attend and would like to join in this new opportunity, we will appreciate your passing the word around.
You will also be glad to know that we have another distribution point for Jesus DVDS and other materials as of today (September 1st). The Glorious Coffee Shop on St. Andrews road just by Crossroads Middle School will be allowing us to distribute good things there. If you need a great cup of coffee and a muffin or breakfast, try them out. We think you will like what you get. (This morning I had Tanzanian coffee!)
Finally for this update please note Jesus Every Day Ministries, Inc. will now be receiving mail at P. O. Box 4332, Irmo, SC 29063. Packages can still be sent to the home address because many will not send to a P. O. Box but all gifts, inquiries, articles or other correspondence can be sent to the P. O. Box.
Thanks and God bless you abundantly.
