Lloyd* and Jane* lived with their two daughters and son in a Northern Thai village that was without any Christian presence. When they sent their oldest daughter to a small, affordable high school in a nearby province, she was introduced to Jesus Christ. Soon she believed and began sharing with her family and friends. As she grew in faith, her resistant family noticed her transformed life. After four years, Lloyd and Jane believed too. When they tell their testimony, they always begin with the words, “Our oldest daughter was the first in our family to believe.” Now they are active in ministry, including the youngest, a young man who loves to sing about his Savior. He is disabled and wheelchair bound due to severe hydrocephalous. Praise God for the faith of this family and others like them! About 45 miles east of Ufa, Russia, believers from Ufa are now meeting weekly to worship with two new believers in the village of Urman (pronounced oor-MAHN). There appears to be a desire for the new believers to form a new church. In Central Asia, there are three Baloch believers who now have contact with others who will be able to help them in their spiritual growth. These three have the potential to become the first gathering of Baloch believers in their country. Workers among the Hokkien of Taiwan give praise for those who came to Christ in 2014 and for the new churches that were formed. They also pray for God’s continued guidance throughout 2015 as strategies are planned, leaders trained, and disciples encouraged. * Please pray for wise and effective planning as the three Baloch believers meet. * Intercede for the tiny group in Urman, Russia to grow in numbers as well as knowledge of the Lord. * Pray for the Northern Thai who have yet to hear and believe, and for Christian ministries that are impacting different segments of the Northern Thai population.
