For Christmas, we visited Laos, distributing printed materials such as calendars, brochures, and postcards. We served the poor lepers and sent money to the family of a missionary who was recently killed for his faith. We also purchased construction sets and t-shirts for the children’s ministry.
In Vietnam, we started organizing a children’s program in the Raglai tribe. It was initially very difficult; it was hard to gather the children, but eventually, the crowd grew so large that we ran out of the 50 gifts we had prepared. We were thankful to have some treats with us to distribute as well. We ended the celebration with Bible stories and coloring books. Those who stood out received special prizes.
This year, we have a special need and ask for your prayer support. The space we are renting for our Sunday services has become too small, as more and more people are attending. We are praying to rent a house where we can gather anytime, 24/7. To do this, we are lacking $300 per month. There are many things we would like to include in this house (we already have experience, as we had such a house for 3 years).
Dear friends, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your ministry here with us. Your prayers and help are contributing to God’s work. Praise God for you.
