Ministry Update October 4, 2024
Exciting News about our new interactive map!
Dear Partners,
I want to share with you all some very enlightening news. After a couple of years of thought and working through various aspects of our web site, we are now able to bring you an interactive map with pictures and direct coordinates of all of the Church sites that your partnership has helped bring about. We have 201 church sites currently and approximately 160 can now be found on the interactive map linked to our web site Resourcing Ministry Partners Inc. You can also Google Resourcing Ministry Partners Inc. and click and be directed to the site. To find the map, click on Menu in the upper right, then Regions and Pastors, finally click on FEFC Church Map. A small map of Kenya will be displayed. To enlarge it, just click on the map itself. You will be able to scroll in and out of the map, moving in every direction. You will be able to locate nearly every church we have. Each church is marked with an orange cross. As you scroll in, a gray cross will appear near the orange cross. If you click on that, you will see photos taken in that Church's location.
We are in the process of loading each individual Church up on the website as well. Each Church location will have a picture of the Physical Church, the Pastor and their Family. We estimate that we will have all of this completed, as well as a complete update of the site, by early November, 2024. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy getting familiar with the interactive map. Those that are familiar with Google maps will have no trouble. Those new to Google maps, it will take some time, but it is well worth it! You can literally scroll close up to the location and see the rooftops and surrounding landscape of the Church locations. That in addition to the pictures that have been collected, adds up to a more immersive experience, almost as if you were going on your own personal Mission Trip.
We will continue to update the map yearly as the mission continues. Currently, we are missing approximately 40 churches. This is due to extreme weather and some political uprisings that have arisen in regions where we have Church plants. We hope to get to those areas before year's end.
We have a group from Cincinnati going on a Mission Trip to our Bissil Headquarters in late October and will report their findings to everyone upon their return. We are very excited with the pace things are progressing and will continue to share and update you as we get information. Remember you can stay current on the Facebook pages we gave in a previous update and you can use the web site as we are now able to stay current.
Thanks for your continued support as we work towards the goal of taking the gospel to all of the Maasai in Kenya and Tanzania
Yours in Christ,
Dino Costanzo
