OVERSEAS PROJECT 2002-2004

Over the past two years almost £28,000 has been raised for projects in Uganda and Moldova.  It has been an exciting partnership for us to be involved in seeing real change come about through our prayers, interest and support.

Project LINK is going to strengthen our link with another church on the other side of the world from us.  For the next two years we shall be focusing on:  

Helen Lyttle is one of the staff team working in the lighthouse Church in Sapporo, Japan.

JAPAN 

One of the main areas of Helen's work is serving as part of the team at the Lighthouse Church. 

 

Helen writes, "From mid-June to mid-July  we had a team of four young men from the McGinty's home church in Texas come to help with youth outreach.  That was a lot of hard work but a great success bringing in as many as 40 young people one night.  We need to be able to follow up on that.  Right now there is not the man-power to do it."  The church would like to employ a Japanese youth pastor, and we would like to help financially.

Work also needs to be done to update the property in which the church meets - painting, removing walls etc.  They are also in need of a radio microphone and other equipment. 

We want to help:

  • provide support for the appointment of a youth pastor;

  • give finance to help refurbish the property; and

  • supply income to help purchase necessary equipment.

How can you help?

There are as many answers to that question as people in Bloomfield - but here are just a few.

  • E-mail Helen Lyttle to get more information.  Hlyttle@omf.net

  • Find out more about the countries in which they work and the churches there, and use this information at your meetings.

  • Encourage individuals to donate to the project.

  • Arrange a visit / team to go to Japan.
