Ministry Wish List

These ideas are in the planning stages. If anyone is interested in helping me develop them please contact me.

• Integrity in Business Day.
  Most countries have a special week set aside for Small Business Development. In Canada it is in October and is called The National Small Business Week. As a part of that week I would like to have Christian Business Groups petition their City Council to declare one day as Integrity in Business Day. On that day information would provided to the media promoting Integrity in Business. An Honest Dealer Award could be presented by the local Chamber of Commerce to a business or businesses with a community reputation for integrity in business. There is much room for development of other promotions aimed at encouraging integrity in business. Any ideas?
  
• Christian Entrepreneur's Hall of Fame
  My research has discovered very few role models for Christian Entrepreneurs who have succeeded in making a difference in the marketplace as Christians. I know they exist but have not gained prominence. There are several that I have discovered. Stanley Tam is a great example of a powerful witness in the marketplace. I would like to develop a number of brief biographies of Christians in the marketplace who made a difference so that we can all be edified by their example. I am looking for nominations...
  
• Marketplace Testimonies
  I am also looking for your testimony in the marketplace. How has God made a difference in your workplace or place of business in your witness, your compassion, your concern for justice and righteousness in the marketplace? Please send me your testimony (and a GIF portrait if possible!).

• Christ Centered Company Mission Statements, Policies & Procedures
  I am researching Company Mission Statements, Policies and Procedures that reflect Christian values and standards in the marketplace and promote Christian approaches to marketplace issues.. Posting these statements to the Web Site will encourage other Christians in business to incorporate these approaches in the way they do business in the marketplace. Please send me submissions

• Small Business and Missions. See Draft of Course Proposal for School of Small Business and Missions. With two thirds of the world's population surviving economically via micro enterprise the harvest fields are ripe. Pray for the workers to go to the small business people to call them to Christ, train them in business skills and disciple them in the Christian faith.

• Stay tuned! There will be more coverage as word gets out!
