The Williamsburg Christadelphian Foundation

For twenty-five years, WCF has provided services and resources in areas that are often beyond the scope of individual ecclesias. The Foundation has also fostered a climate of creativity and support where worthy ideas have been promoted and become projects to help the global Christadelphian community in preparation for Christ’s return. WCF is directed by an eight-member board* and augmented by a network of "fellow-workers"**.

The Foundation has two primary objectives:

• Helping the Household of Faith cf. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. (Galatians 6:10)
• Preaching the Truth to the World cf. And he [Jesus] said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation." (Mark 16:15)

*composed of American and Canadian brethren    **includes Brothers & Sisters in the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia and NZ

• Would you spend $10 for the privilege of having 30 uninterrupted minutes to preach the good news of the Kingdom of God to a family member, friend or co-worker?

  If yes, then call 1-800-689-8273 and order one of WCF’s outreach video programs. "Conflict in the Middle East – to be Resolved by God" is a timely message to share or lend, especially in light of the current conflict in Israel between the Jews and Palestinians.

• Could you give $50 for a project that will allow hundreds of new Brothers and Sisters in Eastern Europe the pleasure of having video programs in Russian for their own spiritual development, as well as a tool to pass along the gospel of Christ?

  If yes, then write a check, earmark it for "Russian sub-titles" and send it to Ray Pratt, 335 North Western, P.O. Box 86, Deland, IL 61839.

• Would you contribute to a fund set up for charitable works, 100% of which goes directly into the lives of people in need?

  If yes, then realize that WCF operates such a fund. Every penny donated to "charitable works" goes into relief and welfare activity. All labor in this area is volunteer, i.e., non-paid.

• Can you make a monthly pledge for one of the following projects? (a) supporting a missionary training program (b) developing slides/video clips for Christadelphian Bible seminars (c) producing another video on "Gods Family around the World"

  If yes, then call WCF Treasurer Ray Pratt (217-664-3511), who will help you with the details.

There are many ways you can support the objectives of WCF: prayer, utilization of WCF resource offerings, financial support including tax-effective vehicles such as stock transfers, charitable trusts or the designation of your United Way contribution (US only). Contact WCF Treasurer Ray Pratt in one of 3 ways: phone (217-664-3511), regular mail (335 North Western, P.O. Box 86, Deland, IL 61839) or e-mail (rpratt@net66.com).

WCF is hoping to expand its charitable works and be positioned to provide immediate assistance for basic living needs, as they come to light. Do you know of some urgent need that is not being met? Can you make a monetary contribution, or volunteer your services? If so, let WCF know.

WCF also continues to promote skill-building workshops, videos that increase awareness of God’s family around the world, and the development of resource material for outreach seminars and web-site witnessing. WCF solicits your time, expertise and financial support.
