We are Doing very well!!


Thank you all so very much for your prayers as we are doing very well and God is moving in our service times!

Last night, Tues. we had the opportunity to go to a service with the leaders from different parts of the city. Pastor Greg ministered to around 100 people encouraging them to be faithful in their ministries and we had a powerful time of prayer and petition before coming back to the Hotel for sleep! It was a long day but God was in control of our time and we know that God has been blessed by it!

The church runs very differently here, I will try to explain it to you! The pastoral staff here is in charge of a specific area of the city where they minister, along with a team of lay leaders, to the people in their area. These areas start at the smallest being 400-500 up to some that have 3000 people!! These pastors are in charge of visiting people in hospitals as well as small groups that meet in the homes. The lay leaders are who we are targeting in these nightly services. We are encouraging them to keep working for God and allow Him to bless them!!

This morning we went to a Bible College and ministered to a group of close to 300 students. These are students from all over Asia! Tim and Robyn sang three songs together and Greg ministered to them! They were very encouraged by us being there and it was a little easier because they all spoke English! At the end Greg had me give an encouraging word and pray to close! It was a powerful time of ministry!! God is really blessing that school and students are going into ministry from there after each semester!

Tonight another leadership meeting and some rest!
Thanks for you prayer support, we need it!

Pastor Carl
