Praying for the Holy Spirit to act on the Word sown in hearts and minds, native workers gave thanks for their co-labor with the Lord last year, when 473 people put their faith in Christ and 39 home churches sprouted. The last three months of the year were fruitful as 61 people accepted God’s grace and 16 churches were planted. “May God be praised for this result and work to ensure that all converts become true disciples of Christ,” the ministry leader said. Workers need donations for such gospel work. Pray the Lord will keep them safe and healthy amid many dangers.

“You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy.” (1 Peter 1:8)
