Our team in South East Asia passionately engages with local people, right where they. Through education, community development and social enterprises, our team’s ministry is making a holistic difference in people’s lives.
“Our team serves in a communal culture across three people groups. Family and cultural traditions are important to them and are embedded in each generation from a young age. While this is a beautiful part of the culture, it makes it challenging for people to choose to follow Jesus.
The team’s engagement through education, community development and social enterprises opens opportunities for God’s love to be shared in practical ways.
We have seen how living as alongsiders can open doors to the Gospel. The Holy Spirit is at work and our team has a sense that this is just the beginning!”
– David
