Prayer Focus Prayer Focus NEPAL CHINA On the 25th of April, Nepal experienced a magnitude 7.8 earthquake with its epicenter in Barpak, Gorkha district which claimed the lives of 7,000 people and injured more than 14,000. The quake caused multiple avalanches in Mt. Everest and multiple aftershocks which reached magnitude 6. Let us continue to pray for the safety of our partner churches and other Christian churches in China. Despite the seeming acceptance of Christians in the country, many churches are still facing dangers daily. Last year, our partner churches in China finished their Cell Leaders’ Training (CLT) in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. Let us ask the Lord for wisdom and strength as the CLT graduates continue to win souls and grow their own cell groups for Christ. We are grateful for the Lord’s protection upon our contact persons and their families in Nepal. However, many families have lost their loved ones and homes due to this calamity. As part of Christ’s body, let us combine our faith for the nation of Nepal, as many people were left mourning, sick, homeless and hopeless. Let us pray for the our Mighty God to move in their midst so that they may come to know Him as their comforter and provider especially in this time of need. If the Lord is leading you to help Nepal, send us an e-mail at [email protected]. NE INDIA/ HIMALAYAS Praise the Lord for a successful Good News Series (GNS) and School of Workers (SOW) Module 1 training held on the 27th until the 30th of April in Orissa, Kandamohal led by Pastor George Pega and his team. Around 40 Pastors and leaders from 25 different Churches attended the seminar. The attendees were excited to have this kind of training and were blessed. At the end of the training, they decided and planned to have next session in the last week of August for the Trainer’s Training and SOW Module 2, the last week of November for FAITH Gardening and Natural Farming (FGNF), second week of February 2016 for SOW Module 3 and convocation. They have assured us that they will apply this strategy right now in their churches. We praise the Lord His movement in Orissa and for sustaining the team during their entire stay. SRI LANKA Our country coordinator from India, Pastor Johnson, along with his team will be in Sri Lanka from the 20th until the 24th of May for a Local Church-Based Training Center (LCBTC) Orientation Seminar and School of Workers (SOW) Module 1 in cooperation with our Sri Lankan coordinator Pastor Mahesh Demelo. Join us in praying for anointing, provision and divine protection especially for those who will minister to our brethren in the country. We believe that the Lord will use this team mightily in advancing His Kingdom. Issue #2/ MAY 2015 MIDDLE EAST Millions of Filipinos—away from their home and families— are working in the Middle East. Despite their desire to give a better life for their loved ones in the Philippines, many of them are in distress and maltreated. Let us pray for the Lord to bless our OFW-Kabayan chapters in countries like Qatar, UAE and Bahrain so that Filipinos who need help can come to them for help. With this, let us also remember the Christian churches in this region who are also working towards the expansion of God’s Kingdom in a Muslimdominated region. We pray for our Lord’s anointing and wisdom to be upon the leaders as they lead many to Christ. Visit tno-asia.org to see urgent prayer requests and updates from the mission field.

I presented the FGNF technology in Saigon on the 16th of March, 18th of March in Danang, and in Hanoi on the 20th of March among the Bible school graduates, pastors and workers from different churches. The attendees totaled to approximately 150 people. rd From the 23 until the 26th of March, I conducted a training among the Hmong Tribe at the San Sa Ho church in the Y Ling Ho Village. The Hmong tribe is one Hands-on activity with the semiof the largest tribes in Hanoi nar attendees. but they are also very poor and sometimes treated as a tourist attraction. The Hmongs are also farming community. Seventeen churches and 8 districts were represented during the training. There were 23 pastors out of the 60 participants that were part of the training coordinated by the Christian Missionary Alliance (CMA). They were also able to do hands-on gardening and the making of the different biofertilizers and pestiStarting off the program with the cides. The group was participants. very active during the hands-on and they were very eager to learn these new things that they know will help them a lot since they are all farmers. The host pastor was very thankful that we came because he knows that this will be a big help for their farming community. He told me that this will be a big help for them since they do not have and know Vietnam FGNF Updates technologies in organic and natural farming so most of them are using chemicals. Here are some of the testimonies: “I have been a Christian for ten years. I learned the Bible but this is the first time I learned about this kind of training. My pastor told me to attend the training. Happy to learn how to protect my garden. The FGNF technology is very inspiring. I believe that this will help my family and my village. I hope and pray for the team to return so I can learn more.” “If I will apply this technology, there will be no need for me to do tourist guiding. I can concentrate on children and building our home” I believe that God sent me there to help the underprivileged tribe. The Lord reminded me in Luke 4:18-19, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me; he has anointed me to tell the good news to the poor...” The Lord also assured me that I was sent there to preach the gospel to the poor through biblical farming. Our training was good news to them because they were introduced to a technology that can uplift their living standard, their eyes were opened that Pastor Dennis with kids from the there is an alternative Hmong tribe way in farming which is a big favor to them from the Lord.
