World Wide Mission Opportunity from First Reformed

World Mission (www.worldmission.cc) is an organization that is working to bring the Gospel to people who have never heard it before in their language. Pastor Christopher of the First Reformed Church went with World Mission to Nigeria a few years ago. Our Outreach Team and the Sunday School are working together to provide an opportunity to participate in an affordable effort to help this cause. World Mission's main tool is called the Treasure - it's a solar powered mp3 player with the Bible in a native language that can be used over and over again by families and villages. A treasure only costs $40. The Sunday School is working on raising funds for a Treasure but members from our congregation AS WELL AS THOSE IN THE COMMUNITY are welcome to help as well. Treasures are being used in Nigeria, the Congo, the Philippines, and soon in India. Please contact the church office at 201-843-6672 for more information.
