It's Official!!!



This past weekend was a BLUR.  Open mic outreach Friday night, World Mandate Mongolia on Saturday night and then the launch of our bi-lingual church, Antioch Mongolia, and small groups on Sunday.  Everything that our church family has been working and preparing for came to fruition this weekend and it was a huge success!  

Saturday night’s Gospel presentation had approximately 50 Mongolians decide to follow Jesus!  We had more than 150 Mongolians show up for our first service on Sunday morning and more than half that joined a life group/community group afterwards.  Now our focus is on finding the H.O.T. Mongolians… Hungry, Obedient and Teachable.  Mongolian people are certainly hungry for the Good News but it will take men and women who are humble and obedient to the Word of God if there is going to be a strong foundation of believers when we leave in December.

Please pray that the seeds that were sown this weekend would bear fruit and not be snatched away by the enemy.  Pray also that new Mongolian believers would rise up and lead this new church.

And, in other news, we were told that after being in Mongolia for 3 weeks that we have most certainly eaten horse meat by now.  Tastes like chicken?

Blessings,
John
