Throughout COVID, the Church in Vietnam has approached online media passionately. From church services to the short Messages of Hope and online discipleship training, they have seen thousands of people watch services. Many of these churches have been strengthened with new members.

One of the things that we’ve always wanted to happen with Asia Pacific Media is that local believers would become indigineous media missionaries. Our vision is for them to take our training, and then train others in their own nation. In the last few months, we’ve seen that ignite in Vietnam.

Our team in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, proudly shared how they are now taking APMedia training and are now training other churches. Presently, they are focused on teaching the churches how to livestream media as well as tell stories with video.

At our second in-person media training in the country, we look forward to equipping ministers. We will have the priviledge of sharing our knowledge with more Vietnamese people than ever. The first training event was held pre-COVID in 2019, and our upcoming return has been eagerly anticipated.

The August 21st training welcomes many media teams from churches across Vietnam. Our training team will travel from the US, Japan, and the Philippines. The national church leader has asked us to teach livestream producing, how to video and create a testimony story, ways to engage in follow-up, and how to build an online audience.

As doors continue to open back up, we will be there! We are dedicated to enabling the local and national church of Vietnam and greater Southeast Asia as they utilize media to reach the lost and disciple believers as well as multiply media workers. Thank you for your partnership that makes moments like these possible!
