If you have a story you would like to share about your travel to Niger, your involvement with the LINK™ or the Chain of Change™--please email or call us!!

Here are some individuals that have already shared their story with us:

John Fife went on a Vision Casting mission with the LINK™ in Sept 2005

Hi my name is John Fife. I am just returning from Niger, Africa.
As a psychologist, I was deeply moved by the needs of that country and by how much we could really do here to help build Niger.
They are struggling for the basics in Niger. They need water. We wake up in the morning and open up our taps and we have running water. They need to build wells. They need money to do that. Money that for us would be so simple for us here in this country to attain and so difficult for them.
My wife and I have decided to be a link in the chain by committing just one hundred dollars to that country. There are also people who own their own businesses who are committing one thousand dollars to help build the economic infrastructure of Niger and to take the gospel to every village and every person in that country. So be a link in the chain of change and help us to build Niger for Jesus.

Retha Valderas a business owner in the Richmond community

Hi there. My name is Retha Valderas and I'm a partner in the CPA firm Valderas and Fischer PC here in Richmond, Virginia.
Mike Thaler had introduced me to the project that is going on Niger Africa. He one day asked me about an idea for raising funds. Effective ministries could raise one hundred dollars annually from thousands of individuals and one thousand dollars annually from hundreds of businesses.

That would easily help the Niger project.

I am very passionate about helping people and children and schools and the health and welfare of the people. I gladly gave a contribution to Effective Ministries. I would love you to join me in making a contribution and we could all make a difference in the world.
