Caleb Good
News Ministries is a Christ-centered, charitable, non-profit
organization. All of our personnel are volunteers.
We are located in Seattle, Washington. Nearly every month donations from many
sources are shipped directly to villages, orphanages and
hospitals in Romania and other third world countries.
Warm clothing and shoes, nutritional supplements to the
malnourished, non-perishable foods and groceries, medicines
(over the counter and prescription drugs), health care supplies,
toys, household supplies, blankets and sleeping bags, household
goods, and tools are given freely to the
many peasants, villagers, elderly, orphans, street children,
homeless adults and schools.
CALEB
MINISTRY ASKS FOR YOUR PRAYERS
Your prayers are
earnestly requested for Caleb workers world wide! Daily we hear
of attacks and fallen workers and orphans. Reports of floods and
cyclones keep coming in from The Philippines and India and
Kenya. The situation in Kenya, Tanzania and Nigeria
is deteriorating daily and violence has erupted along with
flooding in parts of The Philippines. Our attention is on
helping the orphanages and camps still accepting children.
The Caleb Family
appears to be moving on to newer and better service each passing
day. Unlike most ministries, Caleb Donations are similar in
amount and source each year since 2010. The work with affiliates
worldwide through internet teachings, forums, and discussion
groups have vastly improved as we highlight forms of missions
being invoked each six months, as required of our affiliates.
Ministry to street people, bringing in orphans, visiting
prisoners, and rebuilding villages vandalized by terrorism
attacks. Financial help s ent by Romanian affiliates to aid the
work in Nigeria from Boko Haran attacks shows a maturity in
Christ that blesses me. Another local church in Seattle has just
asked if they can contribute Christian books and good clothes
for our ministry overseas. Responses to needs expressed by
affiliates gives great comfort that we are doing good service to
Christians well beyond what we expected thirty-two years ago.
Jesus is Alive and Well. Thank you all for your prayers, support
and help!

Want to help? Join the
packing party the last Friday of each month, Caleb House, 10 AM.
A good opportunity for people who work most weekdays to
participate in packing. We can always use donations of
white rice, canned meats or fish, grains, and school supplies
for the children. WE NEED CLOTHING, LINENS AND HOUSE WARES
TO PACK.
We
are set up now for small work parties to come and help during
the month so that donations are processed and do not deteriorate
before being sorted and packed. This also takes the burden off
the end-of-the-month gathering. We can now receive donations and
handle packing parties. If you wish to come and pack during the
month before then in groups of two or three, please call to
schedule.

Wishing
to foster the Spirit of The Word of God, Caleb Ministries
extends encouragement to like-minded ministries throughout the
World, encouraging the undertaking of programs which reach
otherwise hidden peoples who do not have access to
evangelism, ministry, or basic necessities of life. The Caleb
Good News Ministries seeks to affiliate with Bible believing,
born again, churched, and spirit-filled believers desiring to
serve others, without reward or personal recognition.
Recognizing that true Faith is a relationship with Jesus and a belief in the truths of The Word of God, we invite those bodies
of believers of like-mind to affiliate with our ministry in
reaching others that none be left behind!

Caleb also assists many
ministries throughout
the world - meet just one...
The
Bible Foundation, a nonprofit corporation out of Oregon has
chosen Caleb ministries to receive Bibles and Bible texts. The
Foundation encourages people to donate books and Bibles that are not
being used in order to redistribute them to those in need. We receive
boxes of Bibles from them several times a month and sort through to
decide where to send them. The Bibles come in various languages; some
are study Bibles and others are children's. Through the generosity of
this wonderful ministry we have been able to send literally hundreds of
Bibles to seminaries, Bible colleges, churches, villages, and
individuals. Through the use of M-bags media mailing privileges at the
post office, we have shipped bags to Kenya, Malawi, Rwanda, Nigeria,
Ghana, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Québec, Romania, Moldova, and the
Philippines
