From Lawas with love – envelopes filled with charity |
“The churches in Lawas were very happy and excited about this project,” said Pr. Penggiran who coordinated the recent 40-day Fast & Prayer project in Lawas. “We never prayed like this before, and we intend to participate again next year.” He told
Ann Low who’s in charge of NECF Prayer Ministry that they used the prayer booklets provided, though they had to photocopy some when they could not get hold of enough copies! Sunday school teachers also made use of the children’s version and taught the kids to pray (though they did not fast). Lawas comprises 6 districts, namely Trusan Laut, Trusan Tengah, Ulu Trusan, Lawas Damit, Merapou and Jalan Trusan. There are over 60 churches in Lawas with an average of 30 members, all under the Sidang Injil Borneo denomination. The participating churches recently sent in their charity collection.
