Greetings!
March this year marks the one-year anniversary of our temporary closing of activities due to the Covid-19 outbreak and other consequences. When the country reopened, we excitedly began our mission just one month later. We have bad news again, the war between Russia and Ukraine has affected the world's economic system and has negatively impacted our country. Due to the war and a third Coronavirus outbreak in Laos, everything has become more expensive. With the rising cost of food and oil, it has become difficult to make a living. As this is a challenge to the CCI Laos mission, we thank God as He guides us through these things and gives us a clear picture of His grace and power.
The more bad things the world does, the more we love God, the more we see churches grow and ministers become more interested in the expansion of the kingdom of God. For example on April 4-5, leaders from 42 churches came together to learn about leadership and the vision and mission of CCI.
This is an important task that we have planned for a long time, but in the midst of the world's turmoil, God has given us the opportunity to do this and teach us that when God opens doors for us, we just walk by faith and not by sight. As the Lord says in Revelation, "I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name." No matter how bad the world is we will continue to proclaim of Christ! Please pray for us.
