Happy New Year

May the blessing of the Lord locate you in 2024
I love teaching, especially impacting knowledge on Toddlers. Jesus famous words, “Let the little children come to me”, is often used to underline the importance of child evangelism. They can be found in 3 Gospels, specifically in Matthew 19:14, Mark 10:14 and Luke 18:16. While this is a relatively simple phrase, it profoundly reveals God’s affection for children.

BRIEF HISTORY OF KABUSA LCC

BRIEF HISTORY OF KABUSA LCC SINCE INCEPTION It is evident, however, that the Hebrew people were a commemorative race; in other words, they were given to creating and presenting memorials of important events. Even in the patriarchal times we find monuments set up in order to commemorate eventsof Jacob (Gen 28:18) "set up a pillar" to perpetuate the memory of the divine promise; and that these monuments had a religious importance and sanction appears from the statement that "he poured oil upon the top of the pillar" (Gen 31:45; Josh 4:9; 1 Sam 7:12; Judg 9:6). Long-lived trees, such as Oaks and Terebinths were made use of as remembrance (Gen 35:4; Josh 24:26). Commemorative names, also, were given to persons, places, and things; and from the earliest periods it was usual to substitute a new and descriptive name for an old one, which may in its origin have been descriptive too (Ex 2; 10; Gen 2:1; 23; 4:1). Genealogical tables appear, moreover, to have had a very ear

ECWA Church  History

ECWA Church  History SIM/ECWA HISTORY SIM  is an international, interdenominational Christian  mission organization.  It was established in 1893 by its three founders, Walter Gowans and Rowland Bingham of Canada and Thomas Kent of the United States. The Founding of SIM in Africa The vision for SIM (and ECWA) was first born in the heart of a woman –  Margaret (Craig) Gowans. Margaret Craig  was born in 1836 in Hamilton, Lanarkshire, Scotland, and married a brewer in Kilmarnock named John Gowans (1836-1906) in 1861. She was the first person in SIM/ECWA history to have a vision to take the gospel to the Soudan, which then led to what we know today as ECWA. They had nine children and emigrated to Toronto, Canada, in 1879.. Mrs. Gowans fervently believed that world-wide missions was an important part of the church’s calling. It was due, in part, to her influence that two of their children became missionaries.  Annie , their oldest, went to China in 1892.  Walter , their fifth

The professed love of Christians to each other should be sincere, free from deceit, and unmeaning and deceitful compliments. Depending on Divine grace, they must detest and dread all evil, and love and delight in whatever is kind and useful. We must not only do that which is good, but we must cleave to it. All our duty towards one another is summed up in one word, love. This denotes the love of parents to their children; which is more tender and natural than any other; unforced, unconstrained. And love to God and man, with zeal for the gospel, will make the wise Christian diligent in all his wordly business, and in gaining superior skill. God must be served with the spirit, under the influences of the Holy Spirit. He is honoured by our hope and trust in him, especially when we rejoice in that hope. He is served, not only by working for him, but by sitting still quietly, when he calls us to suffer. Patience for God's sake, is true piety. Those that rejoice in hope, are likely to be patient in tribulation. We should not be cold in the duty of prayer, nor soon weary of it. Not only must there be kindness to friends and brethren, but Christians must not harbour anger against enemies. It is but mock love, which rests in words of kindness, while our brethren need real supplies, and it is in our power to furnish them. Be ready to entertain those who do good: as there is occasion, we must welcome strangers. Bless, and curse not. It means thorough good will; not, bless them when at prayer, and curse them at other times; but bless them always, and curse not at all. True Christian love will make us take part in the sorrows and joys of each other. Labour as much as you can to agree in the same spiritual truths; and when you come short of that, yet agree in affection. Look upon worldly pomp and dignity with holy contempt. Do not mind it; be not in love with it. Be reconciled to the place God in his providence puts you in, whatever it be. Nothing is below us, but sin. We shall never find in our hearts to condescend to others, while we indulge conceit of ourselves; therefore that must be mortified.
