Psalm 150:6 ESV “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!”
Selecting a partner church was the first step in choosing a project. ERRI went at the invitation of a local, indigenous church. There were some key criteria:
*Would there be an opportunity to share the Gospel through word and action?
*Is there a valid need?
*Is the need recognized by local and national authorities?
*Is it in an area that is generally neglected or an area where help is readily available?
ERRI has, over the years, concentrated efforts in areas of greatest need, distant or isolated areas where others do not want to go.
Community development activities targeted health, food security and basic daily needs.
Examples of projects were: raising chickens and rabbits, agriculture, clean water sources, building latrines.
