Tony Slay I N S I D E T H I S I S S U E : CEO Letter 2 Continued MyChoice 3 Welcome 4 Trinidad 5- News 6 Uganda News 7 Upgrades 8 School News 9-10 Tell A Friend 11 Romans 1:16 16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) of Christ, for it is God s power working unto salvation [for deliverance from eternal death to everyone who believes with a personal trust and a confident surrender and firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, There is a group of people in the earth that understand that without the demonstration of the power of God to extend God s goodness to mankind, we just become another social club. I love seeing people saved but I have to say that if I can t do it with God s plan, then what am I doing? This is not a letter to offend; it is a letter to provoke. We need to understand I Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power. Our call and purpose is to preach the gospel of the kingdom. The apostle Paul followed after the example of Jesus where He delivered this gospel in power to the masses. However, the disciples were the ones that were trained to do what they were doing. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ; however, many people are disciples of the churches and the people they respect in the ministry. I hope that you find yourself looking in the Word and seeing how Jesus did it. If we go back to our roots and forsake man s wisdom in the church, we will have a church full of power and demonstration of a living God, and not just in the buildings but in the streets. It s time to arise and be true doers of the Word and not hearers only. It s time to be the ministers and the believers that God has called us to be.

2 P A G E 2 Letter from the CEO Continued... I am not ashamed of the gospel of the Kingdom because in it is power to manifest heaven in earth. Matthew 6:9-13 Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Today, the body of Christ is ready for truth. They are ready for reality. They are ready for somebody that is not ashamed of God s ability in the earth. When we preach grace, it is not about a social club. It is about God s ability to do in us and through us what we cannot do ourselves. It is His ability to bring His reflection through vessels that are made of flesh. These vessels are the light of the world as we believe and preach the gospel unashamed. I do believe in social activity amongst the church. It is imperative that we meet peoples needs on every level; however, why would we ever compromise the truth just for numbers? When I get to heaven I don t want to sing the song, I did it my way. I want to know that I preached the gospel of the kingdom unashamedly and hear, Well done thou good and faithful servant. I ask you to truly think about what I have just shared and talk to God about it. Do what God puts in your heart and all will be well. LIKE US ON Ministry International Institute (MII)

5 P A G E 5 Ministry News ~ Trinidad Shoe Project Drs. Chris and Yvonne Waller want to extend a special thanks to those who gave on a very short notice, we are happy to announce that 104 children received shoes and socks because of your faithful contributions. Many of these children have parents that cannot afford shoes for their kids and others have been abandoned in Trinidad and Tobago. A lot of these kids live in the dump fields and have no hope unless people like you give. In Trinidad a child cannot enter school unless they have the required shoes that meet the school s qualification. The boys wear black tennis shoes with black socks and the girls wear white tennis shoes with white socks. We were able to purchase quality shoes that will last these children throughout the year. The Pastors and children of Trinidad want all of you that gave to know that they are thankful and send their love and gratitude. Next year, 2014, we are believing God for the funds to put shoes on over 700 children s feet. Please consider partnering with us to continue blessing these children with shoes. We are calling this project the Give a Kid a Chance Shoe Project.

Our goal is to build the orphanage behind Global Revival Ministries.

For $250, we can build an orphanage that will house up to 50 children. We only need 250 people that will give $1, each to build the first orphanage. No project is too big for God. All contributions will be funneled through Ministry International Inc., a 501-3c Non Profit organization, and can be used as a tax write off. Also, we will prepare a beautiful plaque with all the names of the people who gave that will hang on the wall of the orphanage. 100% of all funds given will go towards the project of your choice. These precious children don t need our sympathy, they need our help. If you would like to join us in this endeavor, go to -Trinidad/ to make a donation. We have created payment options where you can make a 1 time donation of $1,000.00, 2 donations of $500.00, 4 donations of $250.00, 10 donations of $ or an any amount donation.

Through donations from friends and partners of MII, funds have been received to buy ten acres of land which we will use to grow food to feed the orphans and also to build a school for them. This will also be the home of the MII main campus in Uganda. We have secured 10 Acres of land at $8,000 and so far $3,000 have been given. Thanks so much MII.
