OVERSEAS MISSIONS Crosslinks For many years now as a Church we have actively and prayerfully supported the worldwide work of Crosslinks. Formerly known as The Bible Churchmen's Missionary Society founded in 1922. Our current missionary partner to whom we are already giving financial & prayer support is: Matthews Kide from Tanzania who became a Christian after hearing a radio broadcast and who has dedicated his life to Jesus ever since. Currently he is studying for a certificate in theology at Kewak Christian Training Centre. We have recently received a letter from Matthews which we share with you below: Kowak Christian Training Centre March 2010 We continue to pray for Elias Nvoju, John Mapunda and for Furaha our previous missionary partners. We are also partnering with Lee & Fai Furney (one of our former Ministry Trainees) who together with their new born baby Titus are going to Abuja Nigeria in October to help set up a Bible College to equip students with dependable Bible-handling skills for ministry.
