Witnessing Before Rulers and Kings
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, the President of Liberia and the 2012 Nobel Peace Prize Winner, asked me if our church was involved in helping the poor in Monrovia, Liberia. “Yes, absolutely, “I said. “We believe that every church member should be teaching and preaching, and helping and healing just like Jesus did.” She nodded her approval. “In fact,” I continued, “All our work in Africa has been based on Isaiah 61 from which we believe that we are anointed by the Holy Spirit to preach good news to the poor, bind up the broken-hearted, comfort those who mourn, provide for those who grieve. Bestow on them a crown of beauty, instead of ashes, oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. I believe that these orphans will become oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.”

Florida and the U.S. Gulf Coast In the U.S. Hurricane Isaac is threatening the Gulf Coast – a place where the devastation of hurricanes is no stranger. We are praying for our friends, churches and communities in the path of the storm.
This weekend the HOPE worldwide Chapters have been called into full alert by the American Red Cross. Jim Mackie, Florida Region Chapter Director, is coordinating volunteers. Fifty volunteers have already been mobilized and are serving from Tampa. Matthew Bridges and our team at the Disaster Operation Team in Houston are working with the American Red Cross and are mobilizing volunteers in the Texas Region for sheltering operations in North Texas. In addition, Ron Barnes, South East Region, with the Atlanta volunteers will be serving at the ARC warehouse loading supplies for deployment to New Orleans and Mississippi, if needed. In the event they are needed, we will also be deploying our Disaster Case Management Teams, who are currently on standby with Catholic Charities.
