REAP Indonesia Update July - December  2019 

Greetings in Jesus' name and shalom! We pray God's grace and protection upon your health, business, finance and family.

Thank you for your steadfast support of REAP Indonesian evangelists. Their collective work has yielded:
- over 44,000 gospel tracts distributed
- over 52,000 verbally evangelised
- over 3,800 conversions to Christ, and
- 13 new churches planted

Praise be to God and thanks for partnership to see such results. Below are your REAP evangelist's reports for your prayers and thanksgiving. 

 

M

M is a 51 year old male who is married and has four children.  

Ministry report July - December 2019
Number of tracts distributed - 380
Number of people evangelised - 400
Number of conversions - 89
Number of people baptised - 40

Prayer Requests
Pray for:
1) The believers to grow and be matured in their spiritual lives
2) The 40 who have been baptised to be faithful to the Lord
3) My children - the second has finished schooling and started working, the rest are still at school. Pray the Lord may preserve them and see them through their vocation. 
4) My leg condition to improve and the Lord to provide sufficient funds for treatment
5) The house that we are currently staying in needs a lot of repairs but pray that God will provide the funds

Praise God that since 2018 the church is thriving in fellowship and serving God. Those who have never come before and those who have not come for a long time are joining us back in 2019. The church is growing and worshipping Him as one body. 

 

AS

A is a 37 year old male who is married with three children. 

Ministry report July - December 2019
Number of tracts distributed - 0 (verbal evangelism)
Number of people evangelised - 100
Number of conversions - 50
Number of people baptised - 0 

Prayer Requests
Pray for:
1) God to preserve my wife and children to stay supportive in the ministry 
2) Us to find God faithful and sufficient in our limited financial situation
3) Strength to persevere on despite the many challenges
4) God's protection over the family and grant us good health
5) God to open hearts as many are resistant to the gospel and hold fast to superstitious tradition

Even though there are many challenges and many are resistant to the gospel, the Lord has kept me and supplies me with His strength to plod on. Many answered prayers have encouraged me and I will keep on keeping on. It is hard to break through superstitious traditions but the Lord is opening ways for the gospel to penetrate hearts and win souls for Christ. 

 

M is a 42 year old male who is married with one child.

Ministry report July - December 2019
Number of tracts distributed - verbal evangelism
Number of people evangelised - 98
Number of conversions - 0
Number of people baptised - 0 

Prayer Requests
Pray for:
1) The school ministry that many souls would be saved and come to know the Lord Jesus personally
2) Souls that are saved to be a powerful witness to their family and friends
3) God to preserve and protect my family with His blood
4) My health, that I may be enabled to serve Him effectively
5) Wisdom to minister to parents, school teachers and students

At a school where I minister, a few of the students were possessed by an evil spirit. An 18 year old girl was possessed quite a number of times within a duration of two months. Praise God she is now totally healed! Would you pray with us as the challenges are mounting. We serve God faithfully in His kingdom's work. 

 

S

S is a 43 year old male who is a widower with one child. 

Ministry report July - December 2019
Number of tracts distributed - 22
Number of people evangelised - 100
Number of conversions - 0
Number of people baptised - 0
Churches planted - 5

Prayer Requests
Pray for:
1) The spiritual growth of believers in the churches I am ministering at, including the children and youth
2) God to preserve my parents' good health and also my child
3) Me, that I will persevere in my ministry work and will not give up. Pray that I will be guided by the Holy Spirit.
4) The people of Indonesia to be tolerant of one another's race and religion
5) Us, as we tackle the many recent natural disasters here in this region

The people here in the village that I am ministering in are steeped in traditional superstitions and refuse the gospel. I am currently ministering in a Malay dominant area with Dayaks who are idol worshippers. I am waiting for the Holy Spirit to lead and guide me in how to penetrate into this area without offending these people. God's plans and timing are perfect and I pray that I will be able to strike at the right time and moment to these people. Please keep me in your prayers always. 

  

TA

T is a 45 year old male who is married with three children. 

Ministry report July - December 2019
Number of tracts distributed - 0 (verbal evangelism)
Number of people evangelised - 73
Number of conversions - 32
Number of people baptised - 1

Prayer Requests
Pray for:
1) Believers to grow in the knowledge and love of the Lord and to serve Him wholeheartedly
2) Those who have received the gospel to respond to His call
3) The three places we are currently ministering at, for the harvest to be ripened for reaping
4) My family to remain strong and supportive of my ministry
5) Me to be a blessing to others as I serve God to win souls for Him

God answered miraculously when I prayed for a believer who was very, very sick and could hardly walk. He was healed and restored and more importantly, his family was drawn to Christ. They have all accepted Jesus into their lives recently. Praise be to God!
