Dear Friend,
Have you ever wanted to make a difference in someone’s life but didn’t know if or how you could?
I suspect that we have all felt that way at times. It is easy to look at pastors, missionaries, or other Christian leaders and think that they have some special gifts and opportunities to see lives changed. And in a way, they do. But they are not the only ones.
God has gifted every one of us and placed us in situations where we can make a difference. Just like our physical bodies have many “members” or parts, so does the body of Christ. Not all of us are the head, or the mouth or other parts. And where would the soldiers on the front lines be without the chefs in the kitchen, the mechanics in the hanger, the secretaries typing memos, the workers manufacturing equipment and supplies, the physicians and psychologists who come alongside the soldiers when they are wounded, and the folks back home who are writing emails, praying and lovingly supporting them? So it is in spiritual battles and life in general. Each and every one of us has a role to play to help change lives as members of the body of Christ.
Right now, for example, as a supporter of NCF ministries, you are helping a missionary couple in Southeast Asia as the wife struggles with serious depression. You are comforting parents who have lost a child. And you are enabling students in Manila to complete their doctorates in counseling so that they can serve people full-time as Christian counselors in that needy nation.
You are also helping Darlene who just emailed us saying, “I prayed to invite Jesus Christ into my life as my personal Savior.” And you are helping a mother who emailed us about our website article on schizophrenia telling us, “This is the first Christian information I have read concerning schizophrenia. My daughter has been schizophrenic for several years now and I find that most Christians are at a total loss as to how to respond. Some immediately assume she is demon possessed. Thank you for the helpful information on this disorder on your website.”
As you pray for the ministries of the Narramore Christian Foundation and support them financially, you are making a tangible difference in the lives of many people, every day, around the world. Thank you for the difference you are making, and please remember how God is using you each time you pray for the people we serve—and how every donation you send enables us to continue reaching out to them. Your prayers and gifts matter and are greatly appreciated!
Yours for serving others,
Bruce Narramore, Ph.D.
President
P.S. As you go about your life each day, please never forget how important you are and the difference you are making.
