After the camp, Sammy contacted the church to learn more about Jesus. Sammy is the son of migrant workers from a closed country, and they live in a rural migrant camp. On our first visit, Sammy’s parents and several neighbors gathered to listen to the Bible lessons. The local believers did a great job sharing the gospel. At the end of the presentation, Sammy stood up and said, “Teacher, I believe!” Sammy prayed to accept Christ right then.
Since then, a local Thai church has held weekly Bible studies at Sammy’s home. Within a short period, Sammy’s mom and a classmate also professed faith in Christ. We continue to partner with this local Thai church to lead English camps, provide free after-school tutoring, and visit Sammy and other students who want to learn about Jesus.

Lives are transformed through English camps. Our team partners with a local Thai church to host free English camps in local schools. We play games, teach English, and local believers share the gospel with every student. That is where 12-year-old Niran* first heard about Jesus.
After the camp, Niran contacted the church to learn more about Jesus. The son of Burmese migrant workers, Niran’s family lives in a rural migrant camp. On our first visit, his parents and neighbors gathered to listen to the Bible lessons. Local believers did a great job of sharing the gospel. At the end of the lesson, Niran stood up, and I said, “Teacher, I believe!”
Niran prayed to accept Christ right then. The local church now holds weekly Bible studies at his home. Niran’s mom and another classmate have also professed faith in Christ. We continue to partner with this local church to lead English camps, provide free after-school tutoring, and visit Niran and other students who want to learn about Jesus.
Please join us in prayer.
Pray for strong, trusting relationships with the parents of children who attend community center events so we can share the love and hope of Christ with them.
From the skyscrapers of Hong Kong and vast plains of Mongolia to smoky rainforests hiding winding rivers edged by golden sands, the natural beauty and long history of these Asia-Pacific Rim countries testify to God’s creative hand. This vast region houses four of the most populous global cities, as well as the country with the world's largest nominal population of Muslims.
Spirituality swirls through cities and countryside like the smoke from temple incense sticks. Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, animists, Daoists and ancestor worshipers live here, comprising 851 unreached people groups who have never heard that freedom is found in Christ. Pray for divine appointments for Christian workers to share that Jesus is the way to peace with God and eternal life. Ask God to glorify His name among the peoples of the Asian Pacific Rim Peoples affinity.
