Help Needed:  Be a Barnabas at LAC

 

We are looking for men, women, teens and children who will sign on to be a "Barnabas" at LAC and in the world where God has placed us.  In Acts 4:36 Joseph, a Levite from Cyprus, was called "Barnabas" by the apostles.  Barnabas means "Son of Encouragement," and throughout Acts you find Barnabas coming alongside others and encouraging them.  He sold a field and brought the proceeds to the apostles to be used for ministry in Acts 4. Barnabas took the converted Saul (now Paul) to the apostles and told of his credible conversion, commending him for ministry in Acts 9.  From Acts 13 on, Paul and Barnabas minister together as Barnabas continues to use his gifts of encouragement.

Testimony of Sister Wang

 

“I will lift up the cup of salvation, and call on the name of the LORD, till the end.”


A lost sheep - I was raised by my grandmother. She was a devout Buddhist. Everyday there were a lot of people from far and near coming to gather in our family hall to worship Buddha. Our home was always filled with the smell of incense. I was greatly influenced by this atmosphere, and from a very early age I learned to help my grandma light incense, lay out offerings and worship Buddha. I thought that Buddah was God.
