| April 15, 2022 (Good Friday of Holy Week) This is the most important weekend in the universe. We travel through the gathering shadows of Gethsemane, the torturous pain of Golgotha, the deep loss and disappointment for the disciples, culminating in an empty tomb. I love how The Message puts it in I Corinthians 15:55 Death swallowed by triumphant Life! Who got the last word, oh, Death? Oh, Death, who’s afraid of you now? As you know, Multiply 222 Network is “Gospel-based and discipleship-oriented.” The Gospel, and shaping disciples of Jesus Christ, is at the heart of what we do, why we exist. Here are just two quick highlights of how the Gospel is on the move: On Sunday, April 3, Sunlight Community Church held another beach baptism. Twenty (20!) people were baptized. Check out this exciting video. Thanks to God’s faithfulness and your generosity, we reached our fundraising goal for the Church Planting Initiative. We wanted to raise $22,000. $12,000 to give to the two churches we helped to plant last year (Bauchi City and Port Harcourt) and $10,000 to launch a new church in Tarkwa Bay. With the Tarkwa Bay church commencing later this fall, we will have helped to plant 9 churches in Nigeria! As you may recall, too, we are nearly done translating all of the 222Disciple materials into Hausa. We are eager to have 10 pastors from Nigeria travel to Port St. Lucie in early November to be trained in 222Disciple. This will be a great tool for them to use in their own language!  Christ is risen! He is risen, indeed! Have a wonderful Easter celebration. As always, thank you for your continued support of Multiply 222 Network. We are grateful for your partnership in this important work to “multiply disciples and multiply churches.” In Christ, Bob Crow P.S. Please consider joining our growing Monthly Multiplier group.
