About Me
August 27th, 2007 – Category: Information –
As owner and author of this blog, I would like to take a little time to introduce myself and give some background on what it is that I do. My name is James Warkentin and I work as a full time PHP programmer at a non-profit ministry in Canada called TruthMedia. TruthMedia is part of a larger non-profit organization called Power to Change. Read my resume highlights.
Power to Change is a Christian organization which works to bring hope to hurting people around the world. We do this in a number of ways, including sharing the good news that Jesus Christ has saved each one of us from our sins. Power to Change also works with a number of other agencies including the “Global Aid Network”, providing relief supplies to countries dealing with local crises, and assisting with projects that promote sustainable development.
As one of the main developers of Power to Change’s Internet presence, TruthMedia seeks to bring the same message of hope to hurting people on the Internet.
We build online communities where the message of Jesus’ salvation is shared, and spiritual growth takes place. Activities include evangelistic websites, spiritual chat rooms, training online mentors, and support for other groups wanting to develop their own Internet ministry. (www.crusade.org)
Because of the fact that TruthMedia is non-profit, I am required to raise all the costs associated with my employment there as tax deductible donations from people who want to support the work that we do. These costs include things like my salary, medical benefits and any other costs associated with being an employee.
In light of that, part of my job involves going to people and asking them to consider helping to support me in this ministry. I would like to do that here. If you would be willing to consider helping me financially in this ministry, I would LOVE to talk to you more about it. Feel free to email me through the contact form on this site with your thoughts or questions. OR, if you would like to donate directly to my ministry, feel free to do so using one of the following links:
- Canadian Donation - Will receive a Canadian tax receipt
- USA Donation - Will receive a US tax receipt
Please choose the donation link which pertains to your location. Doing this will allow you to receive a tax deductible receipt for the appropriate country.
Thank you so much for your consideration of me in this ministry.
Have a great day,
James
