Meet Two Men Who Are
Changing the World!
I love God’s ways in the lives of people! I want to introduce you to two men I have had the chance to get to know a bit in recent days. In both of their lives I have witnessed a true work of God.
The first is Mr. Chris Sadler. Chris was born in New Zealand and from a very early age showed a greataptitude in business. By his mid to late twenties he was a very successful mortgage banker and business leader. He was flying from London to New York on the Concorde and putting together deals worth mega-millions of dollars.

By his mid to late twenties he was a very successful mortgage banker and business leader. He was flying from London to New York on the Concorde and putting together deals worth mega-millions of dollars.
Before long the gnawing emptiness of having it all but missing God led Chris to embrace the gospel while attending The Alpha Course in London when Alpha was just a course running in one church.While Chris still serves in some business endeavors, his main passion has been leading the global spread of the message of Christ in Asia, India and Australia. He now serves as the National Director Of Alpha for North America. We have been honored to host Chris this week at the Church of the Resurrection.
The second is also a Brit named Robert Glover. Robert, a father of 6, was called by God to care for the orphans of China. With little natural connection or influence, Robert obediently followed the voice of God step-by-step in an amazing adventure, often placing himself in great risk. All to say that through Robert’s organization Care for Children over 300,000 orphan children have been placed in the loving homes of Christian families! They are moving forward to their goal of seeing one million children taken out of institutions and placed in loving families. Chris and Robert, two regular guys just like you and me, following the leading and guiding of God who are humbly going about transforming the world. I am humbled and challenged to live my life more fully for God and His Kingdom.
Every Blessing,
Jeff
