Future Goals

Woman praying during the time
of the prayer of comfort.

We plan to return again to disciple the new believers, comfort the victims through God's word, continue to share the Gospel with those who did not hear, and take disaster relief packs back to this village in the near future. Once our orphanage is built, we also plan to bring the orphans at this village to their new home as the Lord provides the sponsors for each child.

Please pray that the Lord will raise up some laborers who have a heart to work with this village to plant a church there, to disciple the people in the Christian faith, and help to rebuild their lives. One of the Hindu temples has been destroyed and washed away in the tsunami, as were also the idols and gods that the people used to have in their houses.

Pastor Richard and Kathy handing out Bibles
to many desperate to read God's Word for
the very first time.

Now all these have been destroyed by the water. The people now have Bibles rather than the idols they have lost. We believe that God has a great plan for this village, for both Hindus and Moslems to surrender fully to the true God.
