The AMEN Team

AMEN is a conduit for channelling resources to many overseas Christians working to make a difference in their own countries. An Indian couple making films with a Christian message reaching 6 million Indian children each week; Nigerians helping churches provide AIDs support in Nigeria; a Filipino Pastor working with High School kids in a very tough area of Manila. These and many other AMEN partners across the world are serving God and seeing amazing things happen. 

  

We have recently held a meeting with our Indian partners in Goa, please click on the banner on the left to read about this really lovely opportunity we all had to share together and renew friendships.

   

We would really appreciate your help in spreading the Gospel through the nations.

December 12th 2009 - Philippines Flood Appeal Update

Thank you to all those who have prayed for the people of the Philippines and also those who have so generously donated funds. Approximately £10,000 has been donated by AMEN supporters and in addition we have been able to supply a total of 150 water filters to enable people in the villages to purify their water to make it safe to drink. Click on the picture to watch a 7mb video of the reaction to the AMEN support. Your love has made a big difference

Phillip Teams

We have been able to help VMM set up a Philip team to travel round villages conducting meetings. This is proving to be incredibly successful. The large numbers of people who are hearing the Gospel for the first time through this team makes it a wonderful Kingdom investment.

    

Please will you help us fund at least one more team - we have received donations of £4500, all we need is another £2500!

We hear about the most amazing things God is doing across the world. Every so often something really hits us as being very special. So, as Trustees, we try to GO as God leads. We still require that the project or person undertaking the ministry is known by one or more Trustees, but this does not necessarily lead to a long term partnership.

    

Our aim is simply to do what God wants with the donations we have been so generously given.. Click on the logo and read about some of the recent God Opportunities

       

A BIG thank you for making all this possible
