THANK YOU

For Giving Towards

And Medical Missionary

EVANGELISM

WORK! Mai,* a medical missionary in Myanmar shares, “This was the first time an evangelistic meeting and health outreach were going to be conducted in my village. I was scared the authorities would not allow us to gather. I prayed that the Holy Spirit would touch the officer’s heart, and give us the permission we needed! Then, God answered another prayer of mine when over 100 people attended the health presentations. At the end of the meetings, I praised God for those who gave their lives to Jesus!”

TEN PERSECUTED FAMILIES WANT YOU TO KNOW HOW GRATEFUL THEY ARE FOR YOU. THANK YOU FOR GIVING TO THE HUMANITARIAN FUND! Church members in a small village in a closed country were told that as long as they continued worshiping God, they had to leave their village. Refusing to give up their faith, they built new homes outside the village. While the local church was trying to make arrangements for ten persecuted families, ASAP provided them with mosquito nets, sleeping mats, and other materials to build temporary shelters. As these families gathered together to pray, they thanked God that though they had lost their earthly support, they had a family in Christ they could depend on.

Your Gifts For Refugees Help Keep Young People Connected

TO JESUS AND THE CHURCH. Zomi youth (refugees from a tribe originally from Myanmar) gathered in Tennessee from over a dozen states for seminars on spiritual growth, discipleship, health, and relationships. The theme of the Zomi camp, “Shine your Light,” reminded the 230 youth in attendance that they can be living testimonies at home, at work, and at school. “My team and I did not know if this event would be possible,” reports North American Division Zomi Youth Director Kim Mung. “We did not have enough funds, but we are thankful God took care of our needs through ASAP’s help.”

YOUR SUPPORT FOR MEDIA EVANGELISM IS TRANSFORMING LIVES.

With the support of faithful donors, ASAP helps the Surin church in Thailand with its radio ministry. Recently, Grandma Sue tuned into the radio broadcast and called asking for prayer. These prayers then turned into home visitations where the pastor and radio DJ helped with her health problems by teaching her about NEWSTART (The 8 Natural Remedies). After a few weeks, not only did Grandma Sue’s health begin to improve, but she also joined Bible studies and is eagerly learning about God!
