A Christmas gift to inspire throughout the year


By choosing Dr Jember Teferra’s book of Bible Reflections you give a gift to last throughout 2025. The thoughts and prayers of this extraordinary advocate of the poor on passages of the Bible, will help you see the Bible in a new light. Described by one reader as ‘spiritual dynamite’, Jember speaks to her readers from the heart, a heart devoted to serving slum dwellers in her city of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Her writings give a unique insight into her remarkably difficult life of personal hardship and loss and the spiritual lessons that served to shape her.

Not only will the reader benefit from these Bible thoughts and meditations, in addition they will learn more about the life of this amazing woman and the projects she helped to iniate. This book contains full colour illustrations of the situations of the people whose lives and circumstances she helped to change by giving them the means to be able to support themselves with a renewed sense of dignity.

From this kind of basic accomodation shown above made of corrogated iron sheets unable to keep out the weather, to the second sturdy concrete home pictured, Jember helped to fund these changes. She also helped to give the children food and education through the sponsorship programme, and in addition to see the elderly supported and sponsored, a fairly unique addition to sponsorship programmes. By buying the book you can help to sponsor these programmes by donating over and above the basic cost of the book. Your donation will also fund the training of more helpers and leaders to sustain the work Jember began in her lifetime.

Edited by myself and compiled by my co-author, Arthur Champion, we do not profit by the book but hope to help fund the project and bring this unique lady to your attention.

The book can be purchased directly from myself by emailing me at http://www.journojohnson@aol.com.
