IDENTITIES AND LOCATIONS CONCEALED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES

Living Out Faith

Greetings Brothers and Sisters,

Throughout August, we saw God at work through CCI’s ministry in Bangladesh. Nine classes are serving 62 students by equipping them to understand God’s Word and share what they have learned with others. We also rejoiced as seven new believers publicly professed their faith through baptism, guided by CCI teachers.


Our team continued encouraging teachers through prayer and mentoring while supporting ongoing church-planting efforts. Conversations with local church leaders also opened opportunities to discuss bringing CCI training to additional congregations. As this work continues, regular support for teachers, especially those serving in remote communities, remains a key need.


Thank you for standing with us in prayer and partnership. We deeply appreciate your continued encouragement and support as we seek to make disciples and serve vulnerable and unreached communities for the glory of God.

With sincere thanks and blessings,


CCI Area Coordinator for Bangladesh

Testimony

This student is a new believer and is currently studying in college. He comes from a family of five, and his entire family is new to their faith, having recently accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior. 


For his education, he currently lives in a Christian hostel in a small town. However, his home village is located in a very remote hilly area. There is no electricity, and there is no proper road to his home. It takes approximately three hours of walking to reach the nearest road.


Because of their remote location, he and his family have had very limited opportunities to receive Bible training. Even his church pastor has only a basic ability to read the Bible and has limited opportunity to explain and teach God's Word. He had long prayed for an opportunity to study the Bible more deeply. By God's grace, he received the opportunity to join a CCI class.


This CCI student and his class are now preparing to complete Book #3, New Testament Survey, by the end of September. He shared: “I got a great opportunity to study the Bible through these course books, and they are very supportive in my personal life. After I finish these courses and complete my academic education, I want to serve Jesus Christ, especially in my community and among other nations. I learn every day from the CCI books, which help increase my knowledge and strengthen my trust in God for my spiritual growth. I am grateful to the CCI ministry and the leaders here.”


This CCI student is growing in his faith and developing a strong desire to serve Christ among his own people and beyond. His story reminds us how important Bible training is for believers living in remote and underserved communities. Through the CCI ministry, he is receiving biblical knowledge, spiritual encouragement, and preparation to become a faithful disciple and future leader.

We held our monthly meeting of prayer and encouragement with CCI teachers.

Baptism

Praise the Lord! It was a blessed time when God called seven people from different communities, all new believers, to publicly follow Jesus Christ through baptism. CCI teachers conducted the baptisms.
