Thank you so much for your generosity. Because of your prayers and sacrificial giving, we are developing a local Isaan language trainer for effective gospel communication, providing travel resources for national partners to cover hundreds of square miles of rice country, and purchasing Bibles and materials for evangelism and discipleship to nurture new believers.
Ministry in Isaan has been amazing this past year! Because of your generosity, our team has shared the gospel in many new villages, and new groups are forming. Here are some highlights of what God is doing in Issan through your prayer and generosity:
National partners opened new evangelical work in three new villages, and new churches were started.
We held public evangelistic events in two villages, and villagers were invited to hear a gospel presentation. Both led to the launch of a new worship and Bible study group.
Your partnership helped each of these outreaches by purchasing Bibles, printed discipleship and training materials, fuel for national partners to travel to unreached areas, supplies and teaching materials for various ministries, supplemental language learning for our team members, and much more.
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.
