Lecture notes from Les Norman, the founder of the DCI Trust which
has been giving global support for the world of mission since 1985.
This outline is based on almost 30 years of releasing funds to live
with and a great deal more to give with, without making appeals or
asking for offerings. Click here

One Day the Beggar Died One
of our partners in a poor country was very upset a couple of weeks ago.
He is a good man and on this occasion he had spent a lot of his wages
from his job to put on a free DCI teaching seminar for leaders and
pastors but curiously instead of gratitude he had men lining up to
ask him to pay them a few dollars a month and for this he could put his
name or ours over their churches. Some would not even take no for an
answer and he didn't know what to say. Sadly the same problem comes the
way of these pages quite often, and if you click on this page you can read some of things we say in reply, for right or for wrong.
DCI
has never been a fund-raising organisation nor do we make appeals,
send out magazines or ask for offerings, rather we are a gathering
point for
people who feel called to giving and to generosity for the benefit
of the last,
the lost and the least of the world.
