Organization: Baptist Friends Global Gospel Initiatives
Team: Pollie Deeringer, Samantha Penna, Ameleigh Strobel, Elizabeth Jones, Elena Lee, Anthony Lee
Initiative: We have invested years of ministry into China. It is encouraging to hear reports from the missionaries we have trained about the doors that the Lord continues to open for them. The underlying philosophy of Chinese education is atheism. This year our Baptist Friends team will be using the means of teaching English to shine the gospel light in a major city. The team will also initiate groundwork for a church plant in Northeast China.

Organization: Baptist Friends Global Gospel Initiatives
Team: Adarsha Gurung, Sarah Grace Ketler, Hannah Folkers, Dillon Renner, Carl Houser, Jonathan Moeller, Seth Izer
Initiative: Last year the Baptist Friends team was in the last days of preparing for their mission when they heard of the earthquakes around Kathmandu. Once they arrived, the team was able to assist in the recovery efforts and strengthen Nepalese believers. The Lord blessed, and the establishing of an extension of The Crown College of the Bible in Nepal was successful. Due to the recent changes in freedom of religion, thousands are coming to the Lord.  This summer’s Baptist Friends team will work to evangelize villages and further the work of Crown Nepal. They are praying that Crown Nepal will be used to train pastors and missionaries to go out and preach the gospel more effectively to their own people.
