In an endeavour to assist pastors and evangelists to be self-supporting in countries where there is little or no support for the ministry, or where orphanages have been set up in very remote areas an approach to assist by financing into the future has been adopted.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

The following concept is adaptable to the many different cultures encountered in this missionary ministry.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

METHOD:
\n<\/b> The visiting Apostolic team finances the project. This is personal input, people to people, not just someone giving cash.<\/span><\/h4>\n

In the sewing machine microenterprise the sewing machine is financed to the project on a loan basis and the project is expected to repay this loan over a period of time once the person operating the machine is making a saleable product.<\/span><\/p>\n

The team finances purchases, Pairs of Ducks, Goats, Calves, Hens or some animal appropriate to the area visited.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

    We have empowered through providing animals buffalo, oxen, goats, sheep pigs \u00a0in many nations to enable pastors and leaders to be self supporting..\u00a0This enables community transformation<\/h4>\n<\/div>

      PLANT A SEED TODAY AND REAP\u00a0THE HARVEST TOMORROW!<\/span><\/h4>\n

      We are seeking to purchase more rice fields in order to provide the complete diet of rice for 15 child and the family for a whole year. The current rice fields 10 acres\u00a0 provide two harvests with sufficient rice for the year.<\/span><\/h4>\n

      In this project we are now wanting to establish a vocational training capacity for the Training Center we have established. This will make the students self supporting. In order to do this we need sewing machines to be provided. These machines cost approx $120 US. Vocational training cost per student is Approx\u00a0$200.<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/div>
