“The Need Always Outweighs The Provision”
Katy gave the Global Challenge January Update during the church service at Queens Road Baptist Church on the 28th of the month. Her live update can be found on our News Page. Points to consider are that:
- pupil enrolment has more than doubled since pre-Covid
- more textbooks are needed
- more meals need to be provided
- registration fees have increased
- staff morale is low due to low wages and their cost of living continues to rise
Here is a closer look at the slides that Katy produced to illustrate the work going on at Crossroads Secondary School and how we can support this work. She rounded up her talk with three bible passages to help guide us. The passages are included at the end of this blog.
Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
Hebrews 13:15-16 NIV
Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
2 Corinthians 9:7 NIV
“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
Luke 6:38 NIV
