STARTING NEW CHURCHES $1,006,000 |
| In Africa, $50,000 will construct a new church building in Maputo, the capital of Mozambique, for continuation of their vital, downtown ministry. | |
| In February 2003, we received these pictures of the new church in Maputo, Mozambique. Your contributions to CCIW's capital campaign have helped build this church. Plans are to expand its training of pastors in theology and English. Funds are still needed, however, to complete the roof, tiles, painting, bathroom fixtures, doors and windows. | |
 |
|
| In the early stages, the new church at Maputo begins to take shape. Monies from the capital campaign have helped with the building. Labor is all donated by church members and men of the community. | |
