Life Connection Ministries

Happy Monday family! For our first Board Feature we will be featuring Dick Brookfield. Here are some fun facts about Dick! ... * Dick has been faithfully supporting LCM for over 15 years. * A few years ago he created an initiative for South African youth called 12x12 that focuses on young people in the United States writing study guides for books of the Bible and then working with South African youth to grow and study the Word of God. We love Dick and all of the support he has given us over the years.

Hey everyone! For the next few weeks we are taking some time to introduce to you our board members! Follow along as we talk about the great people who work behind the scenes in this ministry.

When I say... giving, you say... Tuesday. Giving! Tuesday! Giving! Tuesday! Today is the day. Join us today as we let our love speak to the people of the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Visit https://lcm-ga.com/ to donate. #mylovespeaks #givingtuesday

From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

As some of you may know, South Africa is adversely impacted by the current pandemic which is causing stress upon their infrastructure to provide basic water and electricity. Recently our Board Members were able to support one of our strategic partners on the ground by drilling a well in the township of Port Edward. This is an area that we use as a home base for our short term mission trips and also where many of the local business owners assist us each year with our annual tent crusades. It truly was a blessing to let our love speak by assisting them a much needed well. #mylovespeaks

#DYK that to give in Xhosa means ukunikeza? This year we want to be purposeful with our giving to the people of the Eastern Cape of South Africa and you can be a part of that, too. We are less than a month away from Giving Tuesday where we are able to really make our love speak through giving.

Did you know that 2 years ago this month our founders, Willie and Flossie Russell, were featured on a local show called Atlanta Live where they discussed the origins and future hopes for Life Connection Ministries and the Matthew E. Russell Foundation? Check out the whole interview here! https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=KduvU8Fk3PI... Interview starts at 1:05:30!

Every month this year we will be spotlighting one of the amazing things that God has done in our 20 years of ministry. This month we wanted to spotlight the beginning of us having boots on the ground in the Eastern Cape with the acquisition of our LCM project site in 2007 with the help of John and Suzy Nicolas our local board members. We are so grateful for supernatural connects and for the partnership with the Nicolas family. #LCM20STRONG

We are so excited this year to be celebrating 20 years of ministry in South Africa!

Thank God we are able to be a blessing to the people of the Eastern Cape

As the whole world is dealing with the effects of the covid-19 virus, in the South African rural areas of the Eastern Cape a majority of the population is struggling with water, power, economic and food scarcity. The vision of Life Connection Ministries (LCM) centers around providing spiritual food, natural food and economic development to these already impoverished regions. LCM has been working with the local tribal leaders in the Amadiba Village to supply 400 food parcel...s to the needy families in this community as many have no income to purchase food as a result of the mandatory shelter in place by their government. None of this would be possible without your continued support as we provide hope during these trying time.
