Opportunities for Asian outreach are growing

The leader of CMF’s team in a large city in a populous Asian country was recently reflecting on the growth of the team’s ministry to the urban poor during the past year. “A year ago we were pleading daily for contacts, ways into communities, and knowledge on how to expand and connect with peoples lives,” he wrote. “Today we find ourselves and our team overwhelmed with opportunities to speak truth into peoples lives.”

The team of two families and two singles, along with several national partners, currently work with the children in two migrant schools. Through those programs they are able to share with 600 kids a month. This year they will facilitate 60 scholarships for some of the neediest families and connect with them through home visits.

“Not only are we are partnering with various organizations and business in the city to reach out to those in need, but our team members also work with, train, and teach in five different Christian groups around the city,” he concluded.
