IDENTITIES CONCEALED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES

Faithfully Equipping Leaders

Greetings Brothers and Sisters,

God continues to work through CCI ministry in Bangladesh as teachers and students faithfully study His Word and put what they are learning into practice. During the month, I visited churches and classes to encourage students, teachers, pastors, and graduates. As I shared CCI's vision for biblical leadership training, church leaders expressed growing interest in equipping more believers to serve their congregations. These visits also strengthened relationships with local churches and encouraged pastors who are committed to making disciples.


The ministry continues to extend beyond the classroom. CCI teachers are leading Sunday worship services, family prayer gatherings, Bible studies, and children's ministries. Through Sunday School programs, children are learning biblical truth, while families and new believers are being introduced to God's Word through discipleship and Gospel outreach.


We praise God for the faithful teachers, students, and church leaders who are investing in the next generation of disciples and strengthening churches throughout the areas where CCI serves.


Thank you for faithfully praying for and supporting CCI's ministry in Bangladesh. Your partnership helps equip leaders, strengthen churches, and share God's Word with more communities. We are grateful to serve alongside you.

With sincere thanks and blessings,


CCI Area Coordinator for Bangladesh

Testimony

A Life Transformed Through God's Word

Ms. P is a dedicated CCI facilitator and volunteer from a church in northwest Bangladesh. She faithfully serves the Lord while pursuing her university studies and ministering to her local church and community.


She comes from a family of five. Her father, a former church leader, faithfully served the church for 15 years but is now paralyzed and requires constant care. Her mother stays home to care for him while her younger sister completes nursing training. As a result, she helps carry the financial responsibility for her family.


In addition to her studies, Ms. P serves in Bible translation for the Malto language with limited financial support. Despite many challenges, she remains committed to God's calling among the Paharia ethnic community.


Ms. P graduated from the CCI Bible Training Course in 2024. Through CCI, God transformed her life through His Word, strengthened her biblical foundation, and equipped her for ministry. The training also opened opportunities to serve through Bible translation, and she is deeply grateful for the investment CCI has made in her life.


Today, Ms. P teaches six CCI students in the Bible Doctrine Survey course and leads her church's Sunday School ministry, helping children and new believers grow in their knowledge of God's Word. She also serves as the church secretary.


Despite the demands of university, family responsibilities, Bible translation, and ministry, Ms. P serves with joy and perseverance. She desires to glorify God by making disciples and one day serving as a missionary. As she follows Christ's command to "make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19), she prays that God will use her to equip many more believers to faithfully serve Him throughout Bangladesh.

Ministry and Gospel Sharing

CCI leaders lead Sunday School programs using Bible stories and illustrated books to teach children about salvation in Christ and biblical, moral, and ethical principles. They also disciple new believers and share the gospel with those who have not yet placed their faith in Christ.
