Sending workers for witness & service

It started out as a school project. But when 8-year-old Jonah Lytle learned about the earthquake and tsunami in Japan, he remembered what he’d learned about loving others at his church, Valley Chapel BIC (East Canton, Ohio), and he knew his efforts could be used for something more. “We decided to make a book,” he says. Entitled The battle is the Lord’s: The dream of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the book has sold 75 copies and raised over $700 for relief efforts in Japan. As orders continue to come in, more copies are in the works.
