Work and Witness - Antigua
The time has arrived! This is your opportunity to take the first step toward an adventure awaiting to expand your faith beyond your most vivid dreams. Taking this step will move you toward enlarged faith, greater vision, and an intensified relationship with your Lord. Taking this step will position you so your courage will grow; your awareness of God's leadership in your life will become more visible; and your testimony will soar up the scale of effectiveness. You will never be the same.
The goal of our trips to Antigua is to build a Worship and Community Center for the current Bolans Church of the Nazarene. Their congregation has grown rapidly over the past few years and about 100 people attend the worship meetings in a very small building that is not hurricane proof. They plan on using the facility as a training center for the community, worship center, and as a temporary hostel for the homeless.
