New World’s orders?

REV. CLAUDETTE SIMS (top center), a former TV personality and minister at Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church, got a first hand look at the poverty and despair that African nations are suffering, when she and three missionaries recently traveled to the Republic of Benin in West Africa. Many African American churches have included Africa in their outreach ministries.
