My All Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

“God, whom I serve with my whole heart in preaching the Gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you in my prayer at all times …” Romans 1:9-10a.  Thank you so much for all of you who are praying for my ministry.

For God’s glory to inform you that from two weeks ago until this week, my team of ministry went out to preach the Gospel of Jesus to several groups.  Two teams went out to share the Gospel to the some areas in Gorontalo’s province and and the city of Gorontalo.  The people who lived there are most Muslim but God has working throught this team.  They met some Muslim people and shared the Gospel of Jesus to them.  Some of them want to know what is the Gospel of Jesus and some of them refused, but two of them believed Jesus as Savior.  I will follow-up this ministry so that please pray for this ministry.  What I know that to share the Gospel to this people is not easy b ut your prayer are going to open the way and the heart of people to come to Jesus.  To reach these people, I needed 12 hours by car and needed some extra fund so that please remember this ministry in your prayer.

Two others teams of ministry, went out to Dumoga area.  These teams needed 4 hours to reach this place.   The reported of this ministry if many people renew their faith to Jesus and some of them also believed Jesus.  The most of people in this are are nominal Christians.

In my new house church, Jerry Lumatau took a responsibility to this place.  I met with him twice a month, every Thursday afternoon.  Last Thursday, he came and met me to discuss “how to be effective in sharing Gospel to the people, especially to the Muslim.”  I told him, to take a Jesus way and His Apostles to share Gospel to them.  Last week he met some Muslims and he try to use this strategy and one Muslim believed Jesus and three people invited him to come again and explain Gospel to them.  I gave him small money for transportation and for  food.  He needed more than it but I can’t.

Other house church in Sea Philipi area, where is Noce Nayoan took a responsibility for this ministry.  I praise the Lord Jesus because last Sunday afternoon he baptized one new believer.  “I am not ashamed of tjhe gospel because it is the power of God for salvation of every one who believes; first for the Jew, then for the Gentile,”  Roman 1:16.

Finally, again thank you so much for your praying and God bless you.

Truly in Christ,

Ferry S. Paoki.
