"People of the Cross" will feature their traveling exhibit raising awareness of persecuted Christians at the PCCNA annual meeting. Pastor Joey Rogers of Pace Assembly Ministries in Pace, FL., created the exhibit. The exhibit is directed by Crossroad Outreach, Inc. Here's what the PCCNA Chairman of the Board said when he saw the exhibit: "If anyone in the American Church needs to be jolted from lethargy or apathy, they should view the People of the Cross exhibit. What we have known cognitively about the persecution and martyrdom of Christians in the past will become a current reality illustrated in current real-time events. I was deeply moved and convicted. I recommend everyone experience this life-changing presentation." Dr. Alton Garrison, Assistant General Superintendent, Assemblies of God USA

PCCNA Marketing Consultant Raising Funds for Orphans
|
Leilani Haywood, marketing consultant for PCCNA, is selling her book, "Ten Keys to Raising Kids That Love God" to raise funds for The Orphan Justice Center. The Orphan Justice Center founded a national movement, Safe Homes for Children in 2002 to provide homes for families in crisis. Since then, the Orphan Justice Center has expanded to offer rescuing, adoption and foster care services in partnership with state agencies and churches.
Haywood says she was inspired to donate net proceeds from the book after hearing a man's testimony of being saved from a car accident with a semi-truck. "He said that God saved him from death because of his daughter who he was fostering and now adopting," she says. Former Charisma editor Lee Grady has written a foreword for the book with his wife, Deborah.
Lee and Deborah Grady say, "This book will make an excellent tool to give parents insight, instruction and encouragement." Haywood is an award-winning writer and online editor for SpiritLed Woman as well as a frequent contributor to Charisma. The 150-page book with a Bible study is on sale through Highways Ministries for a suggested donation of $18 which includes shipping & handling. To purchase the book, click here.
