Pastor Steve's visit

This is a little late but Pastor Steve from Lake Point Church visited Jos in November last year and here's a report from his visit. I thought I had already posted it, but realized I hadn't this morning. Sorry for the oversight.

Pastor Steve and his team left today for USA. Their visit to us was rewarding and exciting. They were thrilled, excited, happy and helpful.
They visited all your projects in TH, Gidan Bege, Gyero, VVF plus our trip to the bush in Bauchi State. On our way back we stopped at Gumau where a Bauchi State Judge gave us land for a large Church in the small town. We prayed there holding hands and praising God. There Pastor Steve announced a $5000 donation for the project. Elder Ken gave $2500 for the one inside the village next to the you built.
At the dinner in my house yesterday, Pastor Steve further pledged $20000 towards our ministry. $5000 of this sum is to go for 2 village Churches, $3000 for grains for the street kids and the remaining $12000 for Gidan Bege compassion work.
At his meeting with Plateau Church elders, areas of cooperation in Church planting, youth minstry and leadership training were discussed and agreed upon. This is one visit that has achieved so much for us. We thank God for all of you and your prayers. You started it all and He will surely bless you abundantly.
