AN URGENT CALL FOR LEADERSHIP! KAITAIA IN THE NEWS!

An urgent call for leadership. Everywhere – also in the churches!

What is causing the water shortage we are having at the present time here in the north of our beautiful country New Zealand? Especially in KAITAIA?

Is it the drought? Or is it the total mismanagement  of the water supply in KAITAIA. It is not the drought. It is the mismanagement of the water supply in KAITAIA.

The paper says: ” IT’S DOWN TO THE COUNCIL.”

Where is the leadership and the representation that delivers VISION and LEADERSHIP?

THERE IS AN URGENT CALL FOR LEADERSHIP EVERYWHERE – ESPECIALLY IN THE CHURCHES!

with all your soul –

then I will send RAIN on your land….”

Thousand Obstacles

It is interesting to notice how some minds seem almost to create themselves, springing up under every disadvantage, and working their solitary but irresistable way through a thousand obstacles.”
