A New Book From ANM Press Imagine pastoring a church just a short distance from Ground Zero in New York. Imagine having to deal with the sorrow, horror and shock that followed the tragic events of September 11, 2001. Imagine having to help put lives back together again, and trying to make sense of it all. For Dave Epstein this was not something he had to imagine. He lived it. He is the pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church in New York. In the aftermath of 9/11 Pastor Epstein delivered a seres of messages to his congregation offering spiritual and emotional insight and help, and the love of God. This book contains these addresses. Pastor Epstein brings the timeless message of the...

Bill's Barbecue is a Richmond tradition.  Growing up in the suburbs of Virginia's capital you naturally learned to love this typical southern fare.  Delicious minced barbecue sandwiches, homemade limeades, and chocolate pie.  Yummy.  So when the Media Department recently took a field trip to Richmond for day of R & R after a busy season in the offices, I really wanted us to eat at Bill's. Our field trip was wonderful.  We were able to see some of the history and variety of Richmond.  We enjoyed a wonderful time of good fellowship.  And, yes, we got to eat at Bill's Barbecue.  That in itself proved to be an adventure.  Our Director for A-V ministry,...

  OUR PRAYERS WERE ANSWERED FOR... A Tractor and A Roof! Many of you received an email communication the beginning of last month (and you may have received the newsletter) concerning a need for Williams and Naomi Yindi from Unreached Peoples' Mission.  We are delighted to report to you the good results from that appeal, all of which came together in less than two months. God provided the funds to purchase the much needed tractor as well as the steel trusses to complete the church roof--which has been roofless for over three years.  The Yindis also needed 400 chairs, file cabinets, musical instruments, chalk boards, soccer balls, vitamins, transformers, and several...

A testimony from Maharashtra Village Ministries One of our many testimonies comes from Praful N. Swanker:   “My home was in turmoil. Our neighbors had a disagreement with my mother and cast an evil spirit on her. Each day her health deteriorated a little more. Priests and doctors offered no relief. An uncle suggested that we take her to the local missionary because he had heard that the name of Jesus was powerful. Desperate for deliverance from the clutches of this evil, the whole family began to attend the church fellowship run by Maharashtra Village Ministries' missionary Suresh Mohure. Through their compassion and prayer, mother was totally delivered and healed! As a result,...

He was from a religious background, but not particularly religious himself.  He committed the typical sins of the youths of his time.  He was kidnapped at the age of 16, and sold into slavery.  He was taken to a land far from his home where he was forced to serve a cruel master for six long years.  Then, he made a bold escape.  He managed a journey of 200 miles on foot to the coast of the sea.  And there he found a miraculous deliverance from the land of his servitude!  Does this sound like the plot of a Hollywood film?  Maybe it should be, but it's not.  It is part of the story of Patrick of Ireland. Patrick was a man who...

Nine years ago we at NLM showed the Jesus film to members of the Yalmo tribe in Darjeeling. A chief of this tribe named C.B. Khati was adamantly against Christianity and was even successful in reconverting Christians back to Hinduism by performing Hindu rituals. In June of 2010 he called our pastor in the area for prayer because he was suffering from extreme sugar diabetes problems. The pastor saw him, prayed for him and then returned home.Three days later he called the pastor back saying, "My wife and I want to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as our personal Savior. I'm not going to live much longer and before I leave this world I want to be saved. I know that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth,...

  A girl named Rosy married a hard-working yound man and they had two beautiful children. For ten years they lived happily in peace until Rosy's husband began drinking in 2009. It did not take long for the habit to affect his whole family. Frequent fights broke out his new addiction left Rosy and the children without their basic needs. One night an argument broke out as usual. In a rage, Rosy's husband grabbed a knife and drove it into her throat, severing her vocal cords. He then did the same to himself, as kids were crying in the background. Paramedics arrived, and emergency surgeries were performed on both of them. While she was in the hospital a "man" came into her room and told her...

I am one of the teachers at GEBS as I want to share the things that God has taught me. I thank God for GEBS and for the people whom He his using to challenge me to really live by faith. To God be the glory! My name is Glory Suplico from the province of Palawan. I enrolled in GEBS in 2007, leaving my husband and two children in Palawan.

God used a woman in our church to rescue her nephew named Chui. Shortly after his birth, Chui's mother dumped him at his grandma's house, and she was never heard from again. When Chui was four-years-old his grandmother suddenly died and he was left homeless. By the young age of eight he was addicted to cocaine. When he turned 13, he was taken to a rehabilitation jail. However, when he was ready to be released at age 18, there was no home to go to and no one to take him. Feeling abandoned he began cutting himself and he tried to escape. For punishment he was put in a cooler cell for three months! In November his aunt who is a member of our church, went to get him. The following Sunday, she brought...

I am Pastor Sellry Eli Pioquinto. I came to GEBS when I was a boy. My aunt took me here and I said then, "When I grow up I would study here." However, being an only child, I was overprotected by my parents. After high school I studied in different secular schools in Bacolod City but did not finish because I knew God had called me to the ministry. I enrolled in Doane Baptist Seminary with sufficient support but i abused  God's blessings. In my third year I was disciplined. In defiance, I left the seminary, went to Manila and stayed away from the Lord. For seven years I wasted my time and lived in the world. But I praise God that whomever He loves, He chastens. I returned home repentant and...

We have been blessed and encouraged so much by Carolyn, a sweet, industrious widow who continues to knit hats for the warehouse.  The first time she called us, she told us she had “lots of hats” and was wondering if we could use them.   When we went to pick them up we were blown away!   We loaded boxes and boxes of “hats for Jesus” into the mission van.   Imagine our surprise and delight when we began counting them and discovered she had knit just under two thousand colorful, attractive hats!  Two hundred went into the Middle East container and the majority went on the Republic of Georgia container to warm the heads of many adults and...

A  garage sale is another good tool for your ministry, group or organization to use for raising funds. This idea comes from a church in Maryland and is supplied by a staff member here at Advancing Native Missions (Thank you JoAnne). Their church did this annually to raise funding for their missions outreach. The idea is to sell space to people in the community who are interested in participating in a neighborhood garage sale. You make money on the spaces sold but you also have members of the church or organization donate items that will also be sold with all proceeds going to missions.    The method used was to also combine the sale with a family fun day...

Thank you for helping us shine the light of Christ into Iran this year. The light cannot be contained. In Iran today, once the light shines on one family member, it soon reaches others. The light shines in Tehran : Mona began witnessing to a lady she met in Tehran . To her surprise, the lady, Sahar, told Mona that she and her husband, Issa, had already met Christ but had no one to help them grow as believers. Sahar asked Mona if someone could teach and disciple them.  Mona arranged for two Elam graduates to meet with Sahar and Issa every two weeks. Each time they met, other members of their family joined them, and each time two people came to faith in Christ - a father, sister, mother,...

The Southeast Asia Christmas Story God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground." (Genesis 1:28) Mankind was meant to fill the earth and subdue it. It was God’s command. Yet the post flood inhabitants seemed to want to stay in one place and make a name for themselves. "So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. That is why it was called Babel—because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the...

In recent weeks portions of Indonesia have been devastated by the volcanic eruption of Mt. Merapi.  One of our indigenous ministry partners has sent a message regarding this to our ANM offices: "Dear beloved in the Lord,"The volcano is still erupting up to this day.  Even today it erupted three times and we have soft ash raining on us.  Believers of three house churches on the slope of Mt. Merapi had to evacuate down into another location about 50 kilometers (31 miles) from the villages where they were located.  They were forced to do this to escape the hot volcanic clouds.  So far our location is okay, even though white ashes are...

Samuel thought he was going to die for sure. His heart pounded frantically in his chest as he considered what could very well be his last conscious thought. “What about my wife and children?” Children. It was children who had ambushed him. These boys were as young as thirteen years old. They had most likely been wrenched from their homes and forced to serve in this rag-tag group of guerilla soldiers. Samuel looked around once more, and suddenly he didn’t see a group of killers with guns trained on him. He saw a bunch of frightened, teenage boys. “You’re afraid,” he observed. “You’re afraid of the fact that you could die in any given moment. I have...

One day,  seventeen-year-old  Antonio  was near a church with his friends. They had been throwing rocks at the church building for weeks, but this day a bet was made. Whoever could sneak up to the front of the sanctuary and touch one of the girls who were praying would win this bet. Antonio stood in the doorway, waiting for a chance to make his move. Suddenly the pastor pointed straight at him, bidding him to come to the altar, but Antonio was not there to accept Jesus into his heart. He waited until the pastor closed his eyes in prayer before he slowly made his way forward.  But as he drew near, the pastor opened his eyes. He asked Antonio what he was doing there. “I...

For the last few days, Trisha and I have have been traveling to visit friends, family, churches, and attend a few mission conferences. As we travel, there is one question that always comes up...Why Native Missions? Well, indigenous nationals are people who are sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ in their own country. We call these people native missionaries.  They are Christians in their home countries sharing their faith in Jesus Christ with their family, their friends, and their neighbors. They know the language and the culture -and that is half the battle. These Bible believing brothers and sisters are part of our family, the Body of Christ. If we pray for them, support them,...
