IDENTITY CONCEALED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES

There Is Still Room

“and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.”

 -Luke 2:7 (NIV) 

Greetings Ministry Partners,


Now that Christmas has passed, I continue to pray that the blessing of a Christ-centered Christmas remains in your hearts and within your family circles.


When Mary gave birth to her firstborn Son, Jesus, she wrapped Him in cloths and placed Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. This reminds us that from the beginning, there was no guest room available for Jesus. Even today, many people close the doors of their hearts and homes to Him. Yet in His unfathomable love, Jesus still reaches out with an open invitation, saying, “Come unto Me.”


Luke 14:22 says, “Still there is room.” This verse shows God’s abundant grace and His invitation to the Kingdom of God. By His mercy, all are welcome. There is still room for everyone, because Jesus, the child born in the manger, is the Savior of the world.


May this truth remain with you beyond Christmas, and may God continue to bless you.

Leadership training for CCI team workers was held from December 4 to 5, with nine participants. We conducted “The Cross Before The Crown” seminar.

An Alumni Conference was held from December 6 to 7, with 65 participants.

A CCI teacher engages in fellowship with a church.

My wife and I attended a Christmas Eve service held at a tribal church.

Thank you for your faithful prayers and generous support of the CCI ministry. Because of your partnership, the message of Christ continues to reach hearts and transform lives. We are deeply grateful for your commitment to this work and for standing with us as we move forward. May the Lord richly bless you for your faithfulness and generosity.

In Christ's love,


CCI Laos National Director

  • Pastor K is skilled in promoting the ministry and effective in contacting students and alumni. He visited many house churches.
  • Pastor X continues the class at his own church. He is effective in reaching and influencing Hmong people.
  • Pastor O influences three southern provinces, excels in promotion, and is skilled at recruiting students. He needs to recruit more teachers to help him.

Prayer Requests & Praises

  • Praise to the Lord that our leadership training and Alumni Conference was a success. We were all blessed. 
  • Please pray for the Lao government and the Lao Evangelical Church, which are making it harder for underground Christians. The authorities must approve every religious activity and report it to them. Pray that the Lord will open their hearts to understand and accept our ministry, and bless them in the new year. 
  • Please pray that CCI Laos can develop support in our country. We ask God to give us the wisdom to reach our goal of raising support for one more area coordinator.
  • Please pray for the support of the area coordinators working in remote areas. We need $150 per person each month. 
  • Please pray that God will protect our team members as they share the gospel with others and conduct class meetings.
