Para 1.41 | Again, for 2024, fund Raising this year has been virtually non-existent.. It is evident that we need a project to do fund raising around. The founder will be 66 years of age in 2026, just 18 months away. It is his desire to take that whole year of 2026 and visit each city to speak from each book of the Bible and to reconnect with like minded Bible believing churches in these cities to show and maintain the relevance of the Scriptures to NOW. The founder is in discussions with the board about this. |
