East Asian Church Planting Division
Trip to Malaga, Spain From October 310, we visited Christar's International office for training in Malaga, Spain. Starting in January, we will have the privilege of directing Christar's Church Planting Division in East Asia. This will entail mentoring church planting teams in East Asia, from Mongolia to Indonesia. We will continue to evangelize, disciple, mentor and build teams here in our current home, but, will also travel to mentor our leaders and the teams they represent about 10 12 weeks a year. We are humbled by this opportunity. Pray that we can be a good example of faith, love, and https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=0bce0a31e2&jsver=BNKYf1ymS-0.en.&view=pt&search=inbox&th=15f1bd409c155504&siml=15f1bd409c155504

service, with humility to all we are called to equip.
Evangelistic Studies On Wednesdays, Tom has the privilege of ministering to believers from Yemen, Sudan and Iran. Recently, Nash came to Christ through the ministry of one of Tom's disciples, Norman. They have been discovered as evangelists by their embassy, and articles have been printed in their papers in their home country. Pray for protection for Nash, Norman and Matthew. Pray for Tom as he continues to disciple them. Wednesdays, at two pm, Tom and Sam work with Ali. He is a believer and was baptized this last year. Although there is a language barrier, we are able to communicate and train Ali. He also attends a fellowship from his home country. Wednesdays at 4:30 PM, Tom has a study with Iranians. Recently, Peter came to Christ. Sarah, Zarah, Fatima, Rebecca and Jennifer are still studying the Chronological Teaching. Pray for them as they continue on their journey to fully embrace Christ.
