"And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, come over to Macedonia and help us. Now after he had seen the vision, immediately, we sought to go to Macedonia concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them." Acts 16:9-10
I've often wondered about the identity of the man from Macedonia that appeared to Paul in that vision. Regardless of his identity, however, his plea was urgent. The gospel message of salvation was desperately needed in that region, so God revealed this to the apostle Paul and his companions. They wasted no time in leaving for Macedonia.
There is a similar urgent plea from thousands of hurting, struggling, and displaced souls in the South who were affected by hurricane Helene. Many have died, and more are unaccounted for. Fresh water, gasoline, generators, food, blankets, clothing and first aid supplies are in short supply. The need is as overwhelming as we have seen in recent years.
Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort (based in Nashville, TN) Is currently involved in coordinating deliveries of the above items and much more. However, the staggering need far outweighs the financial resources currently available.
Which is why our help is urgently needed in sending a donation to the Churches of Christ Disaster Relief Effort as soon as possible. If you can assist, please give your most generous donation possible to Jim Romans. We hope to send a check very soon.
Thank you, and may God bless you for your help during this extraordinary time of need.
Live for the Lord in 2024!
