A WORD FROM THE HOME
OFFICE
Vision is described by Webster as unusual
discernment of foresight. God is the one that has provided
this foresight and vision for Acts 1:8 Ministry. As Daniel
9:23 tells us, "the moment you began praying, a command was
given. And now I am here to tell you what it was, for you
are very precious to God. Listen carefully so that you can
understand the meaning of your vision."
God has
provided the meaning for the vision of Acts 1:8 Ministry.
The vision led by God is to equip Christians to care, share
and connect people to Christ worldwide through Christian
Kindness.
If God has
laid it on your heart to help us build water towers in
Uganda and spread the Gospel - enclosed is an envelope to
forward your donation.

TESTIMONIAL
"Thank you for the ministry
of Acts 1:8. I am totally sold on this outreach as a means
to reach people. As a result of this ministry - we were able
to plant a church with a person who caught the vision of
Acts 1:8 Ministry."

| STAFF PROFILE |
Talking with
Emily Pauc is like talking with an old friend. You instantly
feel the compassion and understanding that she has to
offer. Emily is married to Carl, a Funeral Director for
Blaney Funeral Home. The three children, Travis (10), Kamryn
(6), and Grayson (2) are home schooled year round. Although
the summer months have a lighter schedule, they keep busy by
visiting the public swimming pools, walking and biking on
the local trails, and spending time at Grandma and Grandpa's
cottage. The Pauc family have two pet rabbits, one named
George H. and the other named George W. When Emily finds the
free time she enjoys reading, cooking and being outside.
Bible verse to live by: Proverbs 22:6 "Train a child in the
way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from
it." Thank you to Emily and her family for all that they do.
You are truly a blessing to Acts 1:8 Ministry. |
