REALLY Need Ideas

Original message posted by Lori Nicolls on 11-06-07.

We have over 400 acres of land that we are selling with the profits going towards mission work. We want to be faithful with this money so will be investing it into places that will generate income to keep the monies comming in for the different ministries. We want to focus on Orphanages. We have made a website and have tried to spread the word about it but don't know how to go about getting the word out without digging into the profits. Does anyone have any ideas on how we could let others know about this opportunity without it costing us a fortune? We would welcome any ideas on ways to invest the monies as well if anyone knows of any solid Christian run type places/things etc. Also, if anyone would like to look at the website and give us feedback on how it could be made better we would really really appreciate that as well. Thanks for any help we can get on this. God Bless, Lori www.4thekingdom.net

There is an evangelist (friend of ours) who is presently well-connected and dealing mightily in Liberia where there is a great need for orphanages because of the relatively recent warfare. There is a Christian president in Liberia now so they are very open to working with Christians and it is apparently quite safe to travel there now. Call me on the investment issue for an income (Foundation) as we do have some connections/suggestions on that also.

One suggestion is maybe invest in rental properties around the world. You would need expert advice and reliable people to work with....But the rental market has proved to be a good investment for those who have invested at the right time and the right places. I might be worth looking into.

I'm a kenyan pastor based in Naironbi, Kenya with a very strong touch to see lives changed and more so for the little children who ca nnot afford a meal and education. I suggest you come here in Nairobi and get a place you can build a Center which people can go for prayers, retreats and other meetings for that is a business which can really make return for christians here are loking for such places e.g guest houses. Consequently i humbly request you to consider building an orphanage here in Kenya( 70 miles from Nairobi as you go towards Mombasa)in a place where children are poor(some orphans) and need help for by so doing we will also bring christianity to the entire community. I'm willing to donate the land free of charge as soon as contact me. Pastor Daniel. +254 734 56 44 90

Consider looking into the organization Word Made Flesh, which works with the poorest of the poor and street children around the world. www. wordmadeflesh.org

Consider www.crosspointofindia.org. The vision is for 1,000 orphan children and they are raising them in small housing/ family atmosphere. The vision is to not ONLY resue, but train, transform and send. Check it out. They need very little to do a great deal of work.
