We have done some outreach and a lot of people accepted Jesus Christ as the Lord and Saviour. In Ouagadougou about 900 people saw the Jesus film in Mooré and 43 decided to follow Jesus Christ. The team of 38 persons went to Diebougou and showed films in Dioula language and 25 people followed Jesus Christ.
Philippe Ouedraogo, AEAD, Burkina Faso, West Africa.

A former criminal turned priest is to lecture at a national police conference on burglary. Richard Taylor is an ex-drug addict with  convictions for leading a burglary ring. He gave up crime after finding faith in a detention centre.

We are from Tierra del Fuego, South Argentina, my husband, myself and two daughters. We do not take vacations so that we can go out and evangelize once a year. We have almost covered all Argentina. During the year we get supplies of Bibles and materials sent to us. For us this are the best vacation we can have.
Dinorah Las Casas, Ushuaia - Argentina.

I would like to request children's materials, such as books or videos. Here are quite expensive. We have a congregation in Tacna, Peru. I would like to correspond with other brothers of the world since my heart is in missions.
Sergio, Santiago-Chile

I have been feeling that the Lord is saying "bring people into your journey, call them to accompany you." This puts a different focus on things. Rather than organising a training programme we are attempting to involve people in what we are doing, teaching them along the way. That is the way Jesus did things after all. How easy it is to slip away from our roots.
Gail Dixon, Nations, Wales, UK.

If you know believers in Italy, let me know, since I will be moving there to work in 2003. I have a communication ministry in radio and I am the editor for a secular newspaper.
Leo Perez, Rosario, Argentina

To help people reach Mormons, we publish a free monthly e-mail. Christians who understand Mormonism can respond confidently and effectively. New, nominal, and uninformed Christians are sought out by Mormons for conversion to their church.
Robert E. Tozier, Springfield, Virginia, USA.

What was a vision last year, today will become a reality, I am going to legalize our biblical movement and future church named Adat HaEl Chai which means in Hebrew " a community who lives in God". I want to lay the foundation for an NGO dedicated to improve the lives of children and teenagers searching for better ways.
Mario Fiimatori, Sao Paulo, Brasil.

I read today in Philippians how Paul said that he was focusing all his energies on one thing: forgetting the past, and then pressing on to the goal for which he was called.  I never thought that it would be necessary to focus that much energy on that one thing - forgetting the past - but let's not be surprised but if we need to do just that, let's do it and get moving forward again.

There are certain moments when we might wish
the future were built by men of the past.

To our partners in the great harvest fields of India: You stood with us and encouraged us and your prayers made work easier. Your "Hurrahs" for small achievements made us feel like heros. Your faith honors us. The smiles on little orphans are new because you chose to help. We love you and pray for the best for you.
Pastor JJ, Central India.

Hello, I am a practising Catholic and I am staggered by your pages. I know you must be Christians, and so am I as well. I would like to have more information on how you evangelise, and how you can take the gospel to others, especially to those who are far from God or don't know Him. God bless you.
Gabriel Hernando Suárez Moreno

How happy I am to see all this mission from the church.  I belong to the Church of the Nazarene and every 3 months we issue a mission magazine for the young people.
Zeida Perales, Chiclayo-Perú.

We are planning to send a family into southern Spain to serve four years. Any thoughts about an effective, gateway relationship to plant him under? We are also looking to plant 20 more orphanages in India's villages in the next 18 months.
Colin Fullilove, People For Mission, USA.

I am a young pastor in my city, I believe that I have been called to the mission field, we pray for Mali and for Guinea Ecuatorial.
Leonel Diaz, San Pedro Sula, Honduras.

I am very interested in supporting missions and I would like to receive as much information as possible about Africa, because the Lord has put a burden on my heart for that continent.
Alfredo Bistue, Argentina - Cordoba

I want to share with you that "Remar" from Spain is now registered in Australia.  We are open to any idea to help us to open ways forward in the name of Jesus, since we are new and we need support to start work amongst the addicted and marginalised.
Jairo Aviles, Remar Australia.
www.remar.org

I am writing for information in Spanish about missions because I am in charge of this group in my church, and also in the district.  I am very eager to tell the other believers all about missions.

Reason is like the sun:

Living Word invites all missionaries working in UK, France, Belgium, Italy, Andorra, Spain & Portugal to a conference  to address the special needs and challenges of this part of the world. Main speaker is Wolfgang Simson, author of Houses That Change The World. Near Seville, February 12-14th.
Tom Cook, Spain. Telephone (34) 95 415 6275

We have started your Course for World Christians in two churches and it is a blessing. We will now  extend it to other congregations.
Amado Palacios, Puerto Cabello - Venezuela.

It is hard for me to decide between funding housing, water or food. Plastic piping brings water, or soup kitchens provide food for the poor but houses cost only US $2500. We do not believe in welfare so everyone volunteers their labor with no salary. The house recipient works on ten houses to receive one and we build ten at a time for ten families. Prayer is said before work and God blesses and continues to care for the poor. See this on our website.
Fr. Dennis Alexander, Lima, Peru.
www.peoplehelppeople.net 

We are looking for the loan of, or assisted purchase of a spacious property in Spain or Southern Europe to open as a welcome centre for the waves of new missionaries coming in to Europe from South America, Africa and Asia. We will open a training school and house of prayer as well.  We welcome your advice.
Les Norman, World Christians, England.

About 40% of today's evangelicals are not connected with a western denomination. They have largely attempted to de-westernize Christianity, but their indebtedness to the pioneering efforts of missionaries is still very significant. It is important to note that about 80% of evangelicals are the result of Protestant missionary efforts and influence over the last two centuries.

We are ready to leave for the mission field in Córdoba, Argentina. First we will be in a centre of cross-cultural training and then we will be team planting a new church.  We ask for your prayers.
Victor Hugo Moreno, Santa Cruz - Bolivia.

The Orthodox Church is most spread in Russia and the believers are about 170 million. The big thing is that they are united by the same beliefs wherever they live. We believe that to know grace, we need to obey the 10 commandments. We understand that we are very weak and that only God can help us follow them completely as Christ's co-workers. We want to be closer to Christ in our souls and have fellowship with Him and with people around.
Arterm Sedov, Saratov, Russia.

I would like to know about to get involved in mission in England. I am asking the Lord for the means to accomplish my vision win this world for Christ and to get involved in in mission in England.
Archi Barradas, México.

Thank you for the 85 lessons that are helping us greatly. I am a young Christian with a deep desire to serve the Lord. In January we started a difficult mission in a high mountain range where we will have a school of missions for 40 days,
Bany Sanchez Tolentino, Pasco, Perú.

 

If souls can suffer alongside, and I hardly know it,
because the spirit of discernment is not in me, 
then I know nothing of Calvary love.

Amy Carmichael (1867-1951)

 

In a remarkable answer to prayer, the Bible Society of Egypt has permission to sell its Bible story videos in Arabic after being told it could not. The Society also put a very large ad for the "Abraham" video on the front page of Egypt's most popular daily paper and received 150 orders! It may be the first time that any Christian ad has made the front page of a major newspaper in Egypt.
John M. Lindner, Senior News Editor, Christian Aid Mission.

I am forming a school of mission with an agency to support churches in the Great Commission.  I have been a missionary for  ten years forming mission departments in several countries.  Please pray for the spiritual and financial resources I need.
Marcos Luiz da Silva, Praia Grande-Brasil.

What a pleasure it is to see this on the Internet and not just find sex, violence and rubbish. In Venezuela many kinds of strange sects and cults are rising up and we must not remain indifferent.
Daniel Rodriguez, Venezuela.

It is my prayer to God, the Father of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, that we ask him to send workers into the harvest field because the harvest is plentiful and the workers few.
José Urrutia L., Laja-Chile.

We have one God, one Saviour, one faith and one call to win one world to one man, Jesus. If only we were one church we could surely finish the Great Commission in no time at all. We seem like parallel lines all going in the same good direction - and like parallel lines we meet up in infinity, or eternity. Meanwhile the duplication of work leaves such a lack of men, money and materials. Is this crazy?  Who will get together this year, who will merge, who will serve another as one so that the world might believe?
Les Norman, World Christians, England.

We are a small congregation of 150 and we have just received our legal permission.  We rent a building but  the poverty here is turning into misery.  I have got a job and this sustains my family but the people need all the help they can get.  Can anyone help ?
Pr. David Gianella Duran, Santa Cruz - Bolivia

I send my thanks to God and to everyone who has encouraged me to keep going amongst the Shuar natives in the Amazon jungle of Ecuador. The ministry is growing.  Please pray for us and if you would like to come or support us, you are very welcome.
Juan Diego Castro, Ecuador-Macas.

One result of a pastor and missionary equipping seminar in Nakuru, Kenya is that a new church has been established 200 miles northwest and the conversions has risen since the meeting. Requests have been made for many more seminars in Kenya.
Charles Aranyas,Houston, Texas, USA.

In Morocco there have been 5 very accurate articles about Christian work in a news paper, maybe written by someone with the authorities. The tone was not harsh just telling people to beware of us and of what we are up to. Believers are not too alarmed as it is actually great publicity. Moroccans now know that there are 600 believers here.

In the north of Peru we urgently need missionaries as only 2% have responded to the gospel.  So we invite everyone with the mission call to come.  We will be waiting for you with open arms.
William Sifuentes, Piura-Peru

Evangelicals are growing at 4.7% annually, with an average of six million being added each year in the last decade. Evangelicals grew from around 300 million in 1990 to 420 million by 2001 including about 17 million Catholic and Orthodox “evangelicals."

Can I ask you to pray for all kidnapped believers, including my husband José who was taken 7 months ago. For me this is very painful. Pray that he and all others will come home safe and the families will know God's strength.
