And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

Matthew 16:18-19

Greetings Ministry Partner,

At the Global Conference in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on behalf of Lao CCI, we dare to say that we were blessed. We have seen God's work throughout the world through CCI. We have learned from each other, and we realize that God calls us to finish His Great Commission in the region that He entrusted to us. We come home with new challenges and goals. In the year 2024 and the next five years, we will develop each part of our ministry to glorify God by multiplying Christ's disciples and planting more and more churches. Thank you for the instruction, teaching, and encouragement from our leaders and friends at this conference!

We appreciate you, your prayers and support.

Testimony

I had the opportunity to join the CCI Global Conference, which I was invited to by the National Director. This was the first time that both my wife and I had a chance to go out of the country and participate in a conference with Christians from around the world. I was extremely excited and learned new things that I had never learned before. I have served with LCC for a long time and confined myself to our traditional church, viewing Christianity merely as a religion and not fully grasping the mission of the church. During this conference, I was truly touched by the love of Christ through my Christian brothers and sisters from different cultures. I felt that I was a part of them, belonging to God's family. Now, I wish and commit myself to serve with CCI, supporting them with everything I can. I want to express my gratitude to the National Director and CCI for providing me with insight and a clear vision, so that I may serve the Lord in the right way.
