Unstoppable by Nick Vujicic

Joni & Ken by Joni Eareckson Tada

Kisses from Katie by Katie Davis

“Nick is a motivational speaker and you cannot fail to be inspired by this amazing man who is so in love with Jesus that he spends his life travelling the world to talk about Him. Totally uplifting.”

This is the love story of one of the most adored and respected couples on the planet…Ken and Joni Eareckson Tada. Here is a husband and wife who have faced the kind of testing and trials of which few could even conceive…but a couple who have clearly displayed the love of Jesus in their relationship for 30 years.

“Be prepared for a life-changing experience if you read this book; Katie’s amazing journey of faith will jolt you far out of your comfort zone. I’ve read this book numerous times as it is my ‘go to’ book when I think I’ve taken on too big a task!”

New Zealand – What Next?

CLC New Zealand closed down, or handed over, its wholesale and retail operations in 2012. However the team did not feel that this necessarily meant the end of the CLC ministry in the country. Praise the Lord for the opportunity earlier this year to send some remaining stock (mainly educational material) to a school in Zambia. At the time of writing it is not known what future plans, if any, were proposed by the CLC Board when they met in April. Pray for a peace, and a clear sense of God’s guidance, whatever the outcome..
