“Well, you can’t expect to do big things for God without some kind of reaction from the enemy.”     -anonymous

                                                                                           

The Pastors Benevolent Fund enables assistance to arrive quickly to pastors for family emergencies and medical needs.    

Most recently, we received word that one of our former church planting families, who had moved to their new location to begin their next work, experienced their “reaction from the enemy.”  Their move came before the closing on their home, leaving it vacant for the new owners.  In their absence, the home underwent severe water damage from a frozen and burst pipe.  Close friends checked the damage.  The furnace had broken down causing the burst pipe.  From the second floor, water began flowing down toward the basement, causing a flood, damaging nearly everything.  The water company said that over 300,000 gallons of water poured through their home and the bill, just for the water, would be $2,000.    

When Bernie Tanis, Executive Minister at MidAmerica  read what had happened to this dear couple on the front lines of Kingdom work, his heart broke; and he made a call. Replace the furnace and send us the bill.  Bernie knew that a furnace and heat was the first thing that needed to happen. You need heat to dry things out!
