News & Updates

We are prayerfully asking God to speak to your heart about giving a special Christmas gift.


We know it is a long one, so please stick with us to hear about just TWO SPECIFIC NEEDS.

2025 - A Burden and a hope

In the hurried, crowded streets of Dhaka, Bangladesh, and Siliguri, India, something quiet, yet powerful is stirring. There are millions of lives in motion, but only a tiny whisper of the gospel reaches them. In these massive urban cities, the church is still almost invisible.

Did you know that in the country of Bangladesh, Christians make up only about 0.3% of the population? In Dhaka itself, one city-corporation area counted only 4,481 Christians among the over 23 million people living there. In West Bengal, where Siliguri is located, there are more than 99 million people with the percentage of Christianity only being 0.74%.

In many places around the world, Christians can simply walk into a building, sing worship songs, hear a sermon. Not so here. The gospel has not yet taken root in large measure in the lives of the men, women and children you would pass by every day. They’re deeply loved by God, but they don’t yet know it. They’re hungry for meaning, for hope, for someone to walk with them.

This past year, God has been at work preparing us ready to step into what we believe will be significant ministry opportunities in these two cities.

SILIGURI, INDIA

The church we have supported and helped relaunch this year in Siliguri, has started a ministry of compassion to street children and struggling families. Week after week, we have seen small miracles:


> A hungry child eating their first hot meal in days. A young girl receiving safe shelter instead of silence and fear.

> A mother hearing words of hope instead of judgment. A teenager finding family in the church instead of the streets.

> Each face has a name. Each name has a story. Each story matters deeply to God.

God put it in on my heart to bring this to you and ask for your help. I kept hearing this verse in my head and heart, “Whatever you did for one of the least of these… you did for Me.” – Matthew 25:40. I kept seeing Jesus in the faces of these precious children.

Take a minute to view the recap video below from my visit earlier this year, celebrating their church relaunching and spending time with their outreach “Help the Needy”

Our Goal

Our hope is to raise $12,000 for this ministry, to strengthen their 2026 budget, so they can reach more families than ever before.


We believe that together, we can step into 2026 strong—ready to reach more children, love more families, and shine Jesus’ light where it is needed most.

Thank you for standing with us. Thank you for believing that every child matters. Thank you for being the hands and feet of Christ.

Give to Need in Siliguri

Dhaka, Bangladesh

We are ready to launch our new church in Dhaka—a place where the forgotten will be seen, the broken will be healed, the gospel will be lived and shared. A church that will stand among the many and say: “You matter. Jesus cares about you.”

We have been praying, training, and planning – and the time has come. We have found a small place to rent right in the heart of the city. Our pastors, Sohan and Razani, have settled in. They are in the process of purchasing a condo apartment and their two boys have adjusted to their new school. This family is from Dhaka but has been studying here in the Philippines for the past 3 years, and they are excited and as ready as can be!

Our prayer is that this church will be:

A place of belonging

A place of transformation

A place of safety

A place to learn and grow

A place to worship the One who heals the brokenhearted

This is not about building a building. This is about building a spiritual home.


Our hope is the launch the first Sunday in February 2026. To do this, we need your help!
