The books come in numerous sets that feature well known stories from the Bible told with age related texts. I sent them to the Risen Christ Central Chapel in Nigeria by what I thought was airmail, but it turned out to be classic snail mail which took an age to arrive, not helped by the chaos caused by their recent elections. However, in the end they arrived on the perfect day for them to be given as presents to the children- Easter Sunday!<br \/>\nThe pictures show Mr Gabriel Eteng the treasurer of the Risen Christ Central Chapel handing the package containing the books to the Rev. Lilly Oki. The video shows how much the children appreciated the gift.<br \/>\nMustard Seed Songs has been supporting the Risen! Christ Central Chapel for many years \u2013 if you are not sure of the story of how this came about, I will share with you next week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quote of the week<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2888\" src=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/1_SOqpF1TeoE4-DJfoBGo5hg.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/1_SOqpF1TeoE4-DJfoBGo5hg.png 1400w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/1_SOqpF1TeoE4-DJfoBGo5hg-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/1_SOqpF1TeoE4-DJfoBGo5hg-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/1_SOqpF1TeoE4-DJfoBGo5hg-624x351.png 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s Going To Be A Party featuring Lucy Stimpson Maynard from the album &#8220;Uplifted&#8221; recorded and produced by Bob Ross My dear friend, Mick Mellows who founded and runs the charity Faith and Football https:\/\/www.faithandfootball.org.uk\/ kindly donated a number of children\u2019s books that Faith and Football had produced.
