Singapore, 2010

I just returned from the annual G12 conference in Singapore. As always, I was very blessed by the conference. A team of 30 attended from Mongolia--10 of them from our Christian Fellowship Church in UB. I was asked to translate again this year for the Mongolians.

One of the highlights of the trip was being able to travel and spend time with my Dad. He attended the conference as one of the leaders from Ulaan Baatar Mission Church. He turned 60 the day we arrived in Singapore.
I am always amazed by the love and humility of Pastor Khong, Pastor Nina and Pastor Castellanos as well as the other speakers. It is a huge blessing to learn from them during the conference as well as during times of meals and fellowship. They have a love for Mongolia that humbles me and challenges me to love and serve the Mongolian people even more.

During the conference God challenged me to believe for 1,000 members in our Darkhan church. We currently have about 220 members. It was strange because right before the conference the Lord had been teaching me that no matter how big the church, the main thing that concerned God was my personal relationship with Him. But when I let go and told God I would believe Him for 1000 souls this year, I experienced a breakthrough and an increase in my level of faith. It was so refreshing and freeing. We will put our faith in Him as we press on toward the goal of 1,000 souls in 2010!
Since last fall, Mel and I have been seeking God about pastoral training. At this point we feel that formal study is important for our future as ministers. A door has opened for me to study in Singapore at FCBC's Ministerial Training School from May to September of this year. We are still praying that our whole family will be able to go, and we ask that you also lift us up in prayer. In order to make this move we will need to up our monthly support by approximately $300.00 USD per month for the 4 months that we will live there. We also need to raise money of our airfare. About $3,000 USD will be needed for our round trip tickets. Please pray and seek God as to how you can be a part and help us reach our goal (donations can be made by clicking on the Paypal "donate" button on this page). Also please pray for us as we iron out all the details of a place to live and visas.
Thank you all so much for your prayers. You are all such a huge part of what God is doing in Mongolia and in our family. May God bless you all.

Countryside Church Leaders


Every two months we have the privilege of meeting with and building up our mission church leaders. We currently have 4 mission churches in smaller towns around Darkhan.

Our last meeting was yesterday. Hetee spoke to the leaders about developing and maintaining their love relationship with God. He also shared with them about prayer and fasting and about finishing strong.

Before closing they discussed the paperwork process for acquiring church permissions for each church. We ask that you continue to pray for all of our churches as we go through this process.

Victory of Christ's Love

We are still believing God for our church permission papers. We have resubmitted all the paperwork and asked that they allow us to reopen as a new church. In order to do that we have had to change the names of our Darkhan church and countryside mission churches. Our new Darkhan church name has been changed to "Victory of Christ's Love Church". It is by the Love of Christ that WE WIN! We have victory over self, sin and bad habits, hurt, bondage and over Satan himself. AND it is only through the Love of Chirst that we win others to Him.

Please keep us in your prayers as we've been told that it will be very difficult to get permissions for the church. But we know that God is Lord over Mongolia and He will have His way in the end.
Since the beginning of the new year the Lord has been leading us on a journey of prayer and fasting. Our church is experiencing a new hunger and thirst for God and His presence. We have recently begun a 84 day (partial) fast and are already seeing growth in the spiritual lives of our believers.

We believe that the year 2010 will be a year of restoration for Victory of Christ's Love Church on 3 levels: Our relationship as a body with Him, that He will build a Christ-like character in us, and that each and every member of the body will rededicate themselves anew in service to Him.

God has answered our prayer about training and Hetee has been able to attend a pastoral training course called Asian Access. They gather once every 3 months for 1 week at a time over the course of 3 years. The classes are held near Ulaan Baatar and ministers from all over the world come and teach.

As a result of the previous prayer and fasting, God spoke to Hetee many times through the classes and other fellow pastors in attendance at Asian Access. Hetee received confirmation on a number of things that he had been seeking God about and was very encouraged.
