Okay, I need help! God is opening doors all over the world and I want to run through them! But to do it, I need help. Problem? I don't really know how to let help, well, help!
I am writing this in Dubai, on my way home from the most exciting open door God ever presented me with. Steven Sebyala has helped me identify an excellent connection with "the most unreached tribe in Africa- the Karamoja, in North East Uganda. I have long prayed for a great opportunity to reach an unreached people group, and this is "low hanging fruit", ready for a huge harvest. I am almost too excited to sleep!
So we have incredible projects going on in Philadelphia, in Dominican Republic, and in Uganda, Africa. And I have an exciting church to Pastor! And I am praying furiously for a way to do these things more and better.
I think I need a person to help me focus on and organize the exploding network of churches and church projects. The problem is I don't have a budget so this will need to be a volunteer. Here are some of the jobs that need done. If anyone can help me figure out how to get some of these jobs done and can volunteer doing it, I would LOVE the help if I can figure out how to use it and run with it.

ReplyDeleteGerry, I don't know if you post these things on your website, I haven't looked, but if not it may a good way to garner more feedback/interest since you probably get more traffic on your church website than in a blog. This type of position I am wired to do but unless a person is not working or retired I'm not sure they could get all of this done in 4-8 hrs as you suggested. There is a lot of planning/coordinating/tracking/communication that is needed. I can see how you need the help though! Lots of exciting stuff.
