200,000 Tracts Leave For Dublin Depot

The Consider Christ tracts for use in the door-to-door delivery by An Post left the main offices of Every Home Crusade at 4.30 this afternoon en route to Dublin.

This represented another herculean effort on the part of the staff of EHC.

Not only were they required to print and fold 200,000 tri-fold leaflets, they also were tasked with bundling them in 100s, boxing them in 1000s and sorting out surpluses for the various postal zones in the Counties of Donegal, Leitrim, Cavan, Monaghan and Louth!

We cannot thank them enough - and earnestly pray that their efforts will result in a bountiful spiritual harvest!

Creeping Towards The Target

Contributions to the 'Consider Christ Campaign, Phase 2 – The Border Counties' continue to come in.

At this moment, the account stands at £48,077.

This is less than £2000 short of our initial target – £50,000 – and represents a tremendous level of giving, especially when we consider the harsh economic climate in which we now live!

Once again, many thanks for your contributions ... we are really only 'pennies away from our target,' and it is our aim to make every penny count to the glory of our great God!

Why Does The Church Stay Indoors?!

"WHY DOES THE CHURCH STAY INDOORS!?

They have a theology that has dwindled into a philosophy, in which there is:

• no thrill of faith,

• no terror of doom,

• and no concern for souls.

Unbelief has put out the fires of passion, and worldliness garlands the altar of sacrifice with the tawdry glitter of unreality."

- Samuel Chadwick (1840 -1932)

An Post Delivery: Week Commencing 25 October

An Post's distribution of the first Gospel Tract in the Consider Christ Campaign in the Border Counties is scheduled to being on the week commencing, Monday 25 October 2010.

Over the course of this week, more than 400,000 people will be reached with the message of the Gospel.

Pondering The Gospel

Christ’s death is the Christian’s life.

Christ’s cross is the Christian’s title to heaven.

Christ “lifted up” and put to shame on Calvary is the ladder by which Christians “enter into the holiest,” and are at length landed in glory.

• It is true that we are sinners–but Christ has suffered for us.

• It is true that we deserve death–but Christ has died for us.

• It is true that we are guilty debtors–but Christ has paid our debts with His own blood.

This is the real Gospel! This is the good news!

On this let us lean while we live. To this let us cling when we die. Christ has been “lifted up” on the cross, and has thrown open the gates of heaven to all believers. [J.C. Ryle]
