SEASONAL DEVOTIONAL AIDS ESTABLISHMENT
OF NEW CHURCHES!
Regional and general church leaders who wrote CBP's Lenten devotional,
Fellowship of Prayer, have generously donated $1000 in writer's fees to
New Church Ministry to continue the work in establishing new
congregations.

"The New Church Ministry Team is very excited about our partnership
with CBP and is extremely grateful to all the 2003 Fellowship of Prayer
contributors for being so generous," said Rick Morse, director of New
Church Ministry. "Most of our new church starts have few resources when
they begin. Some churches start with only a couple hundred dollars in
the bank. This gift is most helpful as these congregations begin
reaching new Disciples." For the full story go to: http://www.cbp21.com
