Baby Arya’s Baptism: Having a child or children in a family helps parents to experi-ence and understand more about God’s wonderful plan and love for each family on earth. We praise God for allowing us to experience the parenthood having been wit-nessing this God’s love since the first day of having God’s precious blessing Baby Arya. By His grace she got baptized on the 19th November, 2021 in our English Church Plant in the Chattogram city. Her 1st birthday also celebrated in advance, where the Gospel Message was delivered among our invited friends from Christian, Muslim, and Hindu communities. Filipino friends living in Chattogram were a big help and blessings for us.
Pre-Christmas with Tribal people and Filipino Community in Chattogram city The season of Christmas and its celebration is unique and very special. Even though we long to spend this Christmas in the Outreach field with tribal unreached people, we just decid-ed to stay in Chatto-gram due to the Govt. restrictions of entrance to the Hill Tracts for foreigners and threat of Covid-19 situations. We thank God for giving us a good time to celebrate pre-Christmas with both Tribal people from Hill Tracts and also with Filipinos living in Chattogram city. Please pray with us that we may be continually a channel of God’s blessings to the people we meet both Bangladeshis and foreigners in this land. May this Christmas be a meaningful celebration of hope, peace and joy!
Bible School Ministry updates: By God’s faithful guid-ance and provisions we’re officially able to conclude the 2nd batch class of “Diploma in Theology-one year course” on last 10th of December 2021. We’re prayerfully looking forward for the 2nd Commencement Services to be held on the 20th of February 2022 during the Annual Gen-eral Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Bangladesh (PCB). And we also celebrated the 3rd Founding Anniver-sary of this small Bible School on the 7th December 2021 as a Thanksgiving to the Lord with the theme “WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST” (2 Cor. 5:20). Please pray with us that all preparations for the 2nd batch Commence-ments Service may go well, and may God send more new students from different tribes in next year 2022 for the 3rd batch. We’re planning to extend duration of the course to 1 and half year from next Academic Year with the hope that God would help us to be able to offer B.Th. course within five years of the establishment. Please pray with us that we need more God’s provisions for Library Development to have enough books (resources).
Another Harvest of the souls through our Bible School Student’s Outreach Ministry: What a joy and a great news that through the evangelism activities of our 1st batch student Evan. Ruben, seven Mro tribal men and women from Buddhism tribe came to Christ, accepting as their Lord and Savior and they were baptized by another 1st batch student Ptr. Vannei. Conversion of these seven people took place just after two months of the death of a new covert; who died from a severe persecution from his own father (his father himself is included among the numbers who came to Christ). Praise be the Name of the Lord our God! Please include in your prayer for these sisters & brothers in Christ for guidance of the Holy Spirit and for their spiritual growth. And also for Evan. Ruben and oth-ers Evangelists involving in the Outreach Ministries (who graduated from our Bible School) that may God mightily use them, and may the Lord of harvest grant more souls!
