MISSIONS: NowThis Is Another Way to Show That We Are Christians By Our Love

Franklin Graham to Rebuild Churches in Sudan [Christianpost.com]

Not too long ago Samaritan's Purse reported their intention to ...
"rebuild hundreds of burned churches and maintain a hospital in Sudan despite the anti-Christian violence that's occurred during his years of ministry there." [Christian Post]
A week ago the Amish community in Pennsylvania demonstrated the truth of a biblical principal, that we should love our enemies [Luke 6:27]. SP is demonstrating another, "all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another" [John 13:35].
"There's a war taking place against the church of Jesus Christ in Africa," he said, noting that the battle pits Muslims against Christians in countries such as Sudan and Ethiopia.
Most diplomats and the UN wish he would stay the heck out of there; but a man on mission for God is unstopable.
Graham, who heads Samaritan's Purse ... said he wants to rebuild every church that the government or its militias have burned in Sudan. He has identified 226 destroyed churches and has completed or is now building 34.
Way to go Frankie! I just hope he remembers our Father in Heaven sees our righteousness as a filthy garment [Isaiah 34:6].
Graham estimated the cost of the rebuilding at $5 million, which includes bringing in Christian pastors from Arab-speaking countries for one-month stays.
There are mega-barns in the USA which could raise that money with one Sunday offering!

I am thrilled when I see my brothers and sisters really doing the true mission of God! Aren't you?
