GOD GIVES US ALL OUR GIFTS!

"DEO LAUDES"

'PRAISE THE LORD'

“John replied, ‘A man can receive nothing (he can claim nothing at all), unless it has been granted to him from heaven (for there is no other source than the sovereign will of God)”.

John 3:27.

God has given us everything we need to live full, prosperous lives in Him. He has blessed us all with diverse gifts, skills and talents to be used with joy for His glory! So lets never loose sight of the truth that everything that is good in us, and everything we have, has been given to us for a purpose – to bless others!

We thank our Heavenly Father for all the blessings received and we thank Him for the opportunity to be of service to the hurting and needy, and those that are less fortunate than ourselves, even if our service to others demands a little effort and sacrifice on our part. Since starting the "Deo Laudes" volunteer group we have been blessed with receiving much more than what we bargained for. We also found an ever growing list of needy and many, many welfare projects.

Thank you to all our volunteer workers, to all the donors for the generous donations and thank you to M Projects for the donation of a Prefabricated Mobile Park Home (for storage) www.mprojects.co.za . Donations continue to be handed out, far and wide, not only in South Africa – Out reach teams leave with donations to Mozambique and Swaziland soon.

We pray for provision as we urgently need a 4x4 bakkie, trailer and caravan - to assist us with deliveries and collection of donations and to be able to join various Out-Reach teams into Africa.
