FOREIGN MISSIONS

The CFO again has responded to a missions trip to the Dominican Republic on 16 Jan 2006 where badly needed medical supplies are being delivered. The missions group wanted not only to provide medical supplies but wanted a way to share the gospel to. When one of the people form the missions group heard how the CFO spread the gospel of Jesus Christ through the bead ministry the CFO was asked if they could help out. The CFO responded by providing 1,000 rawhides and beads and 800 Spanish tracts and 200 English speaking tracts.

Foreign Ministry
The Lord has lead us into a new area of ministry which is sharing the love and forgiveness of Jesus with the Chinese, Polish and Spanish speaking people. We have been helping to train and equip people for short term mission trips for several years.

Sharing the Gospel by the method of the colored beads is very effective and breaks through the language barrier, but we could not find a tract to go with the beads, so we had our English tract translated into Spanish. We like everyone that receives a bracelet to take the message with them. If they are a Christian it will equip them to share with others. If they do not accept Christ they will have the Bible verses with them. Also if they made a decision for Christ they can sign their name for a record of this and have the verses with them.

The result has been awesome. Since June 2004 we have had over 20,000 new decisions. Pastor Kelly took 35 teenagers, the bracelets and the new tract to El Salvador resulting in sharing with 15,000 people and 4094 decisions for Christ.

In Trinidad there were over 500 decisions. With two trips to Mexico there were 650 decisions in one and 450 in the other.

In the United States we have equipped many to share with the Spanish tract to the Spanish speaking people.

If we can train and equip you, please contact us.

Beyond Our Borders

CFO had the privilege of assisting in 40 different short-term mission trips to foreign countries. Sharing the message through the bead ministry is found to be very effective in other countries too.

We hear many testimonies of how the Lord has used this method of sharing. In some countries, the rawhide are tied on their wrist as bracelets or some use them as necklaces or ankle bracelets as a witness for Jesus Christ.

Many times, they have taken the CFO insert of the message and translated it into their local language and distribute it with a rawhide so they can witness to others.


Lippy Family

From Farming to Foreign Missions

Growing up in a family that operated one of the largest and most successful farming enterprises in Maryland focused my sights on spending my life doing that very same thing. I loved to spend time with my father riding on the 5020 John Deere tractor.

I was also raised in a Godly home. And through the years I learned the most tremendous news of all, that God sent his only Son, Jesus Christ, to shed His blood on the cross at Calvary for my sins. I placed my faith in Jesus Christ as my only hope for heaven that day and my life was changed forever!

In 1998, our family moved from Westminster to Chattanooga Tennessee to prepare for a life of ministry. While there God opened the door to the area of world missions. Our goal is to go where God directs us and to use improved methods in farming to gain a hearing for the Gospel Witness. Lord willing we anticipate going to Gambia, Africa in May 2004 for 2 years and then to Liberia for an undetermined amount of time.

Members of CFO are excited to help support the Keith Lippy family via Directed Giving as they minister as missionaries. Keith is a long time member of the CFO and has worked the Bead Ministry at many shows and fairs. We all need to keep Keith and his family in our prayers as they do the Lords will.
