I'm JEM the administrator of this board. My Christian name is John. Despite what it still says on my profile, I'm 74 I became a Christian in 1954 when I founded what we now call Lighthouse Prayer Ministry

Since 1954 we have reached out to people in 177 countries. This is scaled back from the 192 we used to refer to
because we never really made any contacts from the outreach to 15 of the republics within the Russian Federation
possibly because their postage went up and no one could afford to reply, which is now the case in several parts of the world. In Belarus in 2013 postage rose by 170%
You may wonder there are so many but there are over 200 in the UNA alone and a few not in it.
Then there are countries like the Russian Federation made up of some 80 republics of varying size and mainly small.
Many of our contacts were once off like ships passing in the night although that may not mean that the seed sown has not grown. Some contacts we maintained links with for months or years, and a few for decades.
The main purpose of this board is to provide articles, verse, history, biography, imfomation, links, news, prayer request, and the Word of God that may inspire and encourage Christians or help those attracted to Christianity, and more importantly to Jesus Christ our ever living everloving Friend and Saviour.
We also have a LINKS board which will be extended further eventually, whereby clicking on the website address you can get through to other Christian organisations and learn more of what our Great God is doing today through their work to which He has called them and commissioned them to do.
Yours in Christ's grip
Kind regards
John
