Caleb Africa Director Chibuzor Eze announced a special medical mission is scheduled at the
family home town of Alayi to honor his younger brother, Jeff Eze, who was poisoned several
years ago. When Jeff died, Chibuzor assumed headship of Caleb Africa and has conducted
many outreaches to refugees and the sick but never as ambitious as the one planned for De-
cember 23 through 25. Caleb USA contributed $1,000 and the Nigeria city Enugu, and Caleb
Africa raised the additional
$2,000 for the outreach. The
Mayor of Enugu has pro-
claimed the date December 23
as Jeff Eze Memorial Day.
Many blind, deaf, and sick are
to be treated at the event.
Autism patients at Enugu
were targeted at the last out-
reach on November 29.
Caleb Africa donated 3 sets of computers, books, 2 wheel
chairs, food items, and other materials.to help alleviate the suf-
ferings of these children. Pictures show some of the events from
this worthy outreach, which
also reached widows and
other less privileged people .

Caleb volunteer Jeff Glenn stepped forward at his work-
place to secure the donation of 9,000 new tee shirts to
Caleb Ministry. They were abandoned by the customer
and scheduled to be discarded. We received nine pallets
of boxes in late December. Volunteers scrambled to pack
and ship them on New
Year’s Day in order for
them to reach the typhoon
victims in Tacloban City
and south Philippines Is-
lands in time for the mis-
sion trip of Jerry Riess.
Over 60 volunteers showed up on New Year’s Eve at
the Westside Foursquare Church, to assemble and
pack over 6,000 candy packs. Each zip-lock sack con-
tained 4 crayons, 4 candies, a toy, a wooden car, and
two coloring pages plus the Four Spiritual Truths
and a copy of John 3:16 for coloring. 25 LBC boxes of
candy packs plus 49 LBC boxes of tee shirts and supplies were shipped.

Letter from the Director
The highlight of the winter season is New Year’s Eve when so many
Caleb volunteers conclude their Christmas season by donating time and
funds to complete candy packs. The Caleb trademark gifts have been
distributed in China, Russia, Serbia, Nigeria, Ghana, Belize, Honduras,
The Philippines, Nepal, India, and of course our first mission field, Ro-
mania. We so appreciate the help from so many in this annual event.
We average 10,000 candy packs each year, spreading the Gospel across
the globe to honor Our Savior. Well done, saints!
