Supporting Christians in Business Welcome to the 2012 Find a Christian Business directory Greater Melbourne edition. After a three year hiatus, we are delighted to be back in print â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as well as online at findaChristianbusiness.com.au. Having been named the Christian Business Directory, followed by the Family Business Directory, we are also happy to have settled on our new name of Find a Christian Business. It really sums up what Christians are looking for when online, and also when reaching for the directory to find a Christian plumber, accountant, builder, and so on. However, our ownership has not changed - only our name. Inside you will find a number of Christian owned and managed businesses across a large range of categories just waiting to help you. This is a unique opportunity for you to be able to support Christianbased businesses who share the same philosophy as you. While we do not suggest that only Christian businesses have the ability to serve you with quality, honesty and integrity, we do feel there is a need to support the very people who 1. share the same beliefs as you, and 2. are involved in using their businesses to finance the kingdom of God. Find a Christian Business is promoted in Christian media and through churches, hence keeping the Directory exclusive to Christian-managed businesses. This means that businesses and organisations listed within these pages are people attending local churches, and people who are already apart of the Christian community. So when needing trades, services or general products, please consider the businesses advertised within the Find a Christian Business directory. We encourage you to keep the Find a Christian Business directory by the phone throughout 2012 so that you have a quick and easy way of locating a relevant business for your household or business needs.

Please note:

Warmly, Matthew Danswan Publisher PS. If you have not advertised in the 2012 edition I invite you to register your business FREE online at www.findachristianbusiness.com.au.

This directory is not designed to be used as a mailing, sponsorship or fundraising list. The businesses within have advertised to gain business â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not solicitation. Thank you in advance for respecting the aims of the Find a Christian Business Directory.

Wells Of Life For India

Setting Communities Free

Most of India does not have drinkable running water and everyday too many precious children die as a consequence of drinking contaminated water. The simple provision of clean, fresh water Wells to poor communities, significantly reduces child mortality and dramatically improves the health of everyone. Wells also provide income as women and children make a business of fetching and delivering of water. PeopleAids â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Wells Of Life For India program bores Wells in many regions of India, which are all fully tested and certified for their water purity. They are also fitted with high quality hand pumps. When you sponsor a Well Of Life, you are sent two photos of the people in the village with their new life giving Well, along with its GPS location so that you can view it using Google Maps. If requested we also sign write your name or message on a plaque at the Well.
