"Membership in the family of God is neither inconsequential or something to be casually ignored. The church is God's agenda for the world. Jesus said, "I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it." The church is indestructable and will exist for eternity. It will outlive this universe, and so will your role in it."

- Rick Warren
One African Child Dies Every 30 Seconds from, Basically, a Mosquito Bite

But you can help save a life with just $4.

Mosaic is raising funds for their new mosquito net campaign. They are trying to purchase 3,000 nets for women and children in Uganda.

You can support them by going here. Mailing address is on the site, or you can give online.

One great distinctive about Mosaic is that they have 0% overhead. 100% of your donation goes directly to help those in need. (Their administrative costs are paid for by an independent donor.)

Element has designated 20% of our budget to Mosaic for the past year, and we have found them to be a great organization doing wonderful, tangible ministry to the "least of these" in Africa.

Mosquito nets are great! Not as glamorous as a goat or a new well, but in terms of lives saved per dollar, I don't think there's anything that can beat them.
