You will agree with me that with testamony such as the brothers in missions , the outreach was a resounding success. A repeat of such programme will surely depopulate hell. A letter from Abara Obodo Christian Association Lagos Branch reads: REDEEMED ABALLA-OBODO CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION LAGOS BRANCH 16TH JUNE 1999 Dear Brethren, We send you our sincere Christian greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We rejoice with you for the fact that the grace of God abounds to such a degree as to meet every need in your life irrespective of the nature of your need. You may remember that needs could be spiritual, physical, material, financial, social and so on. No matter which, the grace of our God is more than sufficient to meet you at your point of need and inject a divine victory in your life all Amen. We thank our good God for you every time we think of you and every time we pray for you all, we pray with joy because of the way in which you have been used by God in helping Aballa-Obodo in the work of the gospel from the very first day until now and so we are sure that God who began this good work in Aballa-Obodo will carry it on until it is finished on the day of Christ Jesus. Surely, we have seen that God in His grace has given you this work to do for our good. God revealed His secret plan and made it know you and by the command of the eternal God. So that all may believe and obey. Our prayer is that God's love for Aballa-Obodo which has been revealed through you will keep on growing more and more until victory is won we want you to know our Brethren, that the things of those who did not believe before are placing confident in the Lord and not only that even the believers grow bolder all the time to preach the message fearlessly. We wish to thank all of you for your various contributions to the success of the crusade - may God be with you and move you from minumum to maximum, from glory to glory, and from strength to strength Amen. And you should not relent in your effort to see that the community is delivered. Finally, we request you to tell us the price of the audio video cassette of this crusade. If it is available. We look forward to seen your reply. Grace be with you all Amen. ..................................................... ......................................... BRO. S. (ANUKWU) UGWUNMADU BRO. J. EBOH REPORT FROM KOMA MISSION FIELD (APRIL, 2001) After the just concluded but successful missionary activities at Koma in the month of February year 2001 by a teamof missionaries and some Medical Doctors by Rescuers Mission Agency, Nnewi led by the President of the agency Rev. C. C. Anyanwu. The agency being constrained by the love of Christ, though in deep financial scarcity decided to send one of her missionaries with some clothes collected from Christians and concerned individuals to the mission field of Koma to reinforce the work over there. So, on the month of April 2001, the missionary left Nnewi for Koma. While in Koma he joined effort with our field missionary Evangelist Mathias Obinwa. They visited some villages and hamlets, sharing the gospel of Christ and also clothes to the naked natives. The most encouraging thing we discovered is that despite the fact that Muslims are wowing them to become Muslims, they prefer Christianity to Islam. Their response to this time is interesting. I therefore, ask, "Shall we allow finance to rob us of this golden opportunity?" Your financial contribution will be the positive answer to this question. May the Lord Jesus depend on you by you allowing Him to use your financial boat to reach these precious souls in Koma. The two Evangelist Missionaries, Mathias Obinwa and Samuel Chibuokem toured some of the villages namely: Komni, Komni Sekia, and the real mountain dwellers Onei, and where even their Chief came to the crusade and answered the alter call. There is every indication from our observation and interaction with the people that they are more than willing to follow Jesus the Saviour of mankind. But our major set back is now finance. Your large, or little financial contribution to this commission given to us by Christ will go a long way to help continue this work. and I assure you that you will be sowing on the right soil for bumper harvest. One plea constantly heard from the people is, "When will you come again?" That will now tell you how ripe and ready they are. While I was there my heart was bleeding as thoughts were running riotly in my mind as to why we will not claim these souls now before it is too late. The cry of my souls is, "Oh, Why not now?" I came home from Koma mission field burdened in my heart. You can help share this burden! Remember what the scripture says, "Weep with those who weep".
