Thank you for being a friend of this blog!

I just wanted to let our visitors know that we have decided not to renew this domain name when it expires on October 18. Our church (Elim Evangelical Free in Puyallup, WA) is continuing its interest in and focus upon ministry to the Ubangi Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, we have decided that we can do that most effectively from our own website. (We may continue to post to this blog, but if so the URL will change to the free one provided by our blogging engine, http://ElimCongo.blogspot.com.)

If anyone reading this is interested in obtaining this domain name, who will use it for a good purpose, please send me a comment (as a response to this posting) with your contact information, and let me know. (I will keep your contact info private.) But you'll need to do it by about October 15. After October 18, we incur an $80 service fee if for any reason we try to rescue this domain name from the holding place (where they will keep it for 30 days). After that, it goes back on the open market and will probably be snatched up quickly by a domain name broker.

Thanks! And thanks for reading our blog. For news about our ministry in the Congo, after October 18, 2010 please check our website: http://www.ElimEFC.com/.

Just found your blog after searching for EFCA activity in the DRC. I work for the American Bible Society, and am leading a signficant ministry effort in the region. Just returned from Nairobi where we met with 8 Great Lakes national Bible Societies, including DRC. I am intending to gear up for ministry to the eastern Congo through our EFree church as well. I would be very interested in obtaining the domain name, if it is still feasible. My email address: rbriggs@americanbible.org

Robert, we no longer own the domain. We let it expire and our hosting provider now has it up for auction. See http://www.godaddy.com/domains/searchresults2.aspx?ci=16811. It looks like they are offering it (for a limited time) for $23.99. A note on that page says that price expires at midnight tomorrow night. I'm not sure what happens after that.

Hope you can get hold of it! God bless your efforts in the DRC. Our church is still very involved and it's exciting to see what God is doing there.
