Children of the World represents millions of innocent hurting children who are suffering needlessly as a result of the AIDS pandemic in Africa. Their purpose is to generate compassion and inspire individuals to get involved in helping over 15 million children who have been orphaned and their lives drastically impacted by AIDS. A special video presentation will take you into the heart of this crisis and show you how to make a difference.

World Help was born out of a sincere desire to help those in need both spiritually and physically. We exist to fulfill the Great Commission and the Great Commandment through partnering, training, helping and serving, especially in the unreached areas of the world.

9th Inning Ministries coming this June!

Take God's love to the streets of Lincoln this summer with 9th Inning Ministries! This ministry is an evangelical baseball outreach ministry that occurs in Omaha during the College World Series this June. The ministry was organized in 2000 for the sole purpose of glorifying and honoring God that people will come to have a relationship with Jesus Christ.

An important activity of this ministry is the offering of FREE baseball clinics in Lincoln and Omaha for children ages 7 through 14. Several former professional players conduct the clinic, giving first-rate instruction with a message of God's love.

This year, the Lincoln clinic will be Thursday, June 12. We are looking for volunteers who would help directly with the kids or behind the scenes in various capacities. This is a great opportunity to unleash those spiritual gifts!

If you are intersted in learning more about this or wanting to get involved, call the office at 484-5033.
