We are raising funds for two new projects for North Korea –

1. Bible Distribution
   Target Funds Needed – S$37,400
   The aim is to distribute 29,400 copies of the Bible in digital and/or printed version into North Korea via air, sea and land.
2. Support for the Underground Church
   Target Funds Needed – S$25,700
   The aim is to identify and minister to former underground North Korean Christians and their descendants who are now living in South Korea, and to connect them to local churches in South Korea so that they can continue to grow and mature in their faith.

Would you join us in showing our love for North Korea by giving towards these two projects?

May the Lord bless you abundantly for giving generously!

When visits to hospitals and a witchdoctor failed to heal Phan from his illness, his wife, Yun, decided to bring him to her Christian relatives who shared the gospel with them. Phan soon experienced healing and the couple decided to put their trust in Jesus Christ.

When they returned home, Phan’s parents, whom they lived with, learned of their new faith. They told Phan that his family couldn’t live with them unless they renounced their Christian faith. Phan and Yun stood firm in their faith, and Phan’s parents chased them away. The couple and their two young children are starting their lives over in a new district. They are living with Yun’s relatives but have nothing of their own.

Pray that they will continue to grow in their faith despite their current circumstances. Pray that God will provide for their every need.

Pray that Phan and Yun will be able to share the gospel with Phan’s family and they will believe in the Lord and receive salvation.

#Persecuted Church

On 17th October,  about 60 Christians were beaten, stoned and had their vehicles vandalized by an angry mob. The believers were accused of forcefully converting people to Christianity and detained. Some of them have since been released on bail but others remain imprisoned.

Pray that these believers will remain firm in their faith and the Holy Spirit will help them forgive their attackers. Pray that those who were injured in the attack will receive physical healing.

Pray that those who are persecuting them will hear the gospel, experience God’s forgiveness and love, and receive salvation.

#Persecuted Church

After Aung Hte and his wife received salvation in Christ in 2017, his in-laws expelled him and his family from their land and home in an effort to appease the spirits they worshipped.

His family became destitute and was forced to live in a tent on rented land while Aung Hte worked in a remote fishing village to provide for his family’s needs.

Pray that Aung Hte and his family will find a safe and permanent shelter. Pray that their faith in the Lord will continue to grow in spite of the difficulties they are facing.

Prat that their relatives will see the love of Christ reflected in the lives of Aung Hte and be open to hear the gospel and receive salvation.

#Persecuted Church

Pastor Keshav from the Abundant Harvest Church in Pokhara, Nepal, was initially arrested and detained in March 2020 for allegedly releasing a video claiming that the COVID-19 virus could be healed through prayer. The pastor denies ever uploading the video. Click here for more details on this case : https://gosheninternational.org/nepal-pastor-released-on-bail/.

He was released on bail but re-arrested and charged with “outraging religious feelings” and “attempting to convert”. He was detained in a remote area with restricted access to transportation.

On 21 November 2021, Pastor Keshav was convicted and imprisoned for proselytizing. He was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment and fined 20,000 NPR (SGD $225.85).

Pray that God will intervene in Pastor Keshav’s case such that his sentence will be overturned upon appeal and he will be released from prison. Pray that the Holy Spirit will move mightily in the hearts of those involved in his case such that the truth of the matter will be unveiled and justice will prevail.

Pray that the church and the ministries that Pastor Keshav oversees will remain firm in their faith and carry on with the ministry work. Pray that many in Nepal will have the opportunity to hear the gospel message and receive salvation.
