Hello all, thank you for journeying with us thus far. The Lord has indeed bless us much throughout this time.

1. Last Saturday we went to the suburbs to do some social work. We were there to distribute food to the poor, as well as to share the gospel.

It was really an eye-opener to many of us to see how poor the living conditions were. People stay in gers that are merely as big as it can house a family. No toilets, no water...just a space to stay in. Some families are more fortunate to own a television, while others are not so.

People's lives are very simple. They don't really seek to have luxurious lives, but are just happy to have food to last them day by day. Many of them could only afford to have one meal per day. Children are happy to just throw stones and chase one another outside the gers.

Many of them are also very open to the gospel. The simple faith they exhibited when they said "yes" to accepting Jesus into their lives was indeed encouraging to us.

2. We also had a couple of evangelistic events where we invited our contacts. Over this period, there is a total of 35 students who prayed to receive Christ.

Dear supporters, as much as we rejoice in the great harvest we reaped, we urge that you will be praying for more labourers in Mongolia. There are not many Christian movements in the suburbs especially, so we are also not certain what would become of those who have received Christ last Saturday. Please pray for the protection of the seeds that are planted. Please pray Matthew 13:4-8...that God will bless each of those seeds.

As well as for those 35 students who received Jesus, that God will raise up labourers to do follow-up with them. Please pray together with us for the local ministry here.

"He told them, 'The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.'" (Luke 10:2)
