(Community Net-working)
May, 2015
Dear Friend,
(Mat 9:35) “And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.”
Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ was on the holistic mission. He not only taught and preached about life and His kingdom, but also healed and took care of physical needs. He went about the communities of His days, the cities, villages and religious centres.
Faith@Work Fellowship desires to follow the Lord’s pattern. It exits as a Community Net-working with other communities for (1) Education (through training in skills set for life and work), and (2) Community Projects as Catalyst, Facilitator and Conduit.
