Bangladesh & Dhaka City Church
Ministry Updates
Thank you to all our prayer partners for joining with us to pray for the election in Bangladesh. Our friends are all safe and are feeling hopeful. I must say I have developed such a deep love for Dhaka and the people of Bangladesh. Dhaka is a loud, hectic, beautiful, chaotic, breathtaking place – never been anywhere quite like it. Sights, sounds, smells abound. The church there is small but alive.
Also a big thank you to those who invested in the start-up of our city church in Dhaka. They have secured items necessary for holding services, they are developing a core team, and they are already meeting and ministering. Official church launch is at the end of June. If you want to join me there – let me know – you will be blessed.
Please keep the work there in your prayers – it is not easy; the enemy likes to cause fear. We are believing for protection, favor, and blessings. Pray for courage for our pastors.
One More Network
We have officially launched the One More Network.

We held an event in eastern Mindanao, Philippines. There were 238 that participated in the one-day seminar. Many traveled hours to be with us. There were a few that came in from other islands, traveling for more than a day to be with us – truly humbling that they would come that far at their own expense.
The day was wonderful as we looked at evangelism, missions, and leadership development. There were 70 different churches represented. What a joy and honor to serve the Body of Christ
You know what was awesome – we had Pastor Mo from Mountain West teach with us. I asked him to record some video segments that we used in the seminar. So cool. As usual, he did a great job.
We have another seminar planned at the end of April in the northern regions of the Philippines and have been invited to hold one for some outer islands - for pastors and ministers that cannot afford to travel all the way to the mainland.
For each seminar we rent a facility (often a host church), and we provide breakfast, lunch and snacks. Depending on the area, the cost is around $3000 for each event. We do this as a blessing.
Many of those who come do not have an abundance of resources, so we want to make an investment in them – and bless them abundantly. If you would like to contribute to the One More Network events, you can do that on our giving page.
On the Personal Side
Elaine is doing great. God keeps using her and working through her many gifts to bless, encourage, counsel, and help others. She is actively looking for an elementary school counselor job in Asia. The school she works at now is staffed by all missionaries; you can read that as non-paying. 😂 We do get most of the school tuition taken care of. We are praying about our next steps – where God would have us based – and a paying job would be a huge financial blessing. Please stand with us in prayer about this.
Brandon, our 18-year-old, will be graduating high school in May. Many of you know him, know his story, and know when he became part of our family. Thank you for your love for him and investment in him. We could not have gotten this far without you. As of today (it changes often), his plan is to join the US Army. We appreciate your prayers for him and his future.
Zuri will be finishing 5th grade. She is doing well. Please pray that we find the right place for her (to help with some of her educational and emotional needs). We know God is a big God and He loves her even more than we do.
