Christians arrested in Dearborn!

Recently, some of our brothers in Christ were arrested in Dearborn for doing nothing more than having a peaceful conversation with some Muslims at a public event. These brothers were loving, peaceful and respectful. And yet, even though they were legally allowed to do all that they were doing, they were arrested by the Dearborn police department! They are being brought up on charges and the Dearborn police and Mayor are actually lying about what took place.

The police made a mistake. They gave our brothers back the video of the actual events. Here is the video. Please join us in contacting the Dearborn police and mayor's office. Let them know that what they did was unconstitutional and that Americans are not going to stand for this kind of behavior. Our laws protect us from this kind of abuse of power. The video displays that the police are lying about the events that occurred. There was no riot, screaming or anything else that would have necessitated their being arrested.

Please, pray for our brothers that are being persecuted for their love and faith in the Savior.

Which came first? The chicken or the egg?

Well. I'm not surprised that they discovered what God told us in Genesis all along. I'm sure they could've saved a bundle of money and time by just cracking open Genesis to find the answer to this one. Thanks to my friend Rob for showing me this!

*I absolutely love his last comment:

"No word from the U.K. as of yet as to where the chicken came from".

That statement is CLASSIC!

APOLOGIA needs you!

God is doing some very cool things with APOLOGIA! We are finalizing plans to move to our new location. God has blessed us with an opportunity to share space with a church in Tempe, AZ. We will have the opportunity to worship on Sundays in an incredible sanctuary that is fully equipped with seating, sound system, lights, etc. We will be able to do live musical worship! Finally. Also, we will be able to impact the community through our discipleship bible studies, food ministry, cult outreach as well as our outreach to the local community struggling with addictions. Please pray for us!

WE NEED YOUR HELP

We are requesting help from those of you who have been blessed by the ministry God has given us. God is expanding our reach and giving us the gift of more ministry opportunities. With this move we will have some upcoming ministry needs and expenses.

Would you consider donating to APOLOGIA to help us raise money to get into our new location and cover our costs to move forward and have an impact with the Gospel? We would be so grateful if you would. We would like to raise 5k. This would help to pay for ministry costs and costs associated with moving in and reaching the local community.

If you have ever been blessed by the work God has done through us, please, consider helping us with a gift of any amount. We are so grateful for your prayers and of course for every dollar that God has given to you that you give back to Him through us. We are so grateful.
