Hebrews 12:1
  Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about
 with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside
   every weight, and the sin which doth so easily
beset us, and let us run with patience the race that
                   is set before us
Only one life,
     ’twill soon be past,
 Only what’s done for Christ
           will last.


Please pray for us as we serve
        God in 2013!

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Founded in 1995, the Craftsmen for Christ Ministry is strictly a faith-based ministry supported by churches and individuals like you. % Our purpose is to assist other faith ministries who are not financially or physically able to design or construct buildings for the use of the Lord. Our goal is to help remove this burden from them so they can stay on the mission field or have a church building so they can be busy about spreading the gospel.
