Tool Kit Ministries- Update


Winter Challenges - 2010!!
Our motto is “Have Tool Kit, Will Travel” as we go to many events, churches and conventions to help share fresh ideas with the church leadership to make their ministries more effective. We had no idea our motto would be such a literal challenge this year!
It was a winter snow storm that was the surprise. Attendance was light at GWCEA convention near Washington, DC and since we had 6 workshops to teach, we were committed to staying until the end.
God blessed us with volunteers who manned the resource table, men appeared from nowhere to help lift boxes of materials and this year the classroom was on the first floor!! Faithful board members who attended then stood by until the end to pack-up, load and make sure we made it through the unplowed parking lot.
The great blessing was although we had fewer numbers in the workshops, it allowed more time for personal testimonies and sharing helps one on one. Special thanks to all the prayer warriors who covered this event in prayer.

Website: www: toolkit-ministries.org
Did you know Toolkit has had a website since 2000? Thanks to the volunteer work of “Missionaries to Cyberspace”, Bob and Maureen Hoffman located in Texas. Since Dr. Nancy is not a “techie”, Toolkit counts heavily on the expertise of others. We have some volunteers locally that keep the equipment running. Over the holidays Bob worked with Dr. Nancy to REVAMP the website. Please visit the site and let us know if anything else would be helpful.
The website was built to offer information about the ministry, instructors, mission and doctrinal statement but most of all offers a full description of in-church seminars and training classes that are available by topic.
If you are a local church without a website you may want to check in to this ministry to cyberspace as well. Below are the links and the description of the helps available.
http://www.ekklesia-online.org - Affordable domains, web hosting, email - free hosting for Independent Baptist Ministries.
http://www.online-churches.org - A primer for getting your ministry online.
Thank you, Bob and Maureen, for helping us make Tool Kit readily available to all!
