A Up-date from the Haumschilt’s

God has put a burden on our hearts and a calling upon our lives to reach the unreached people groups of the world.  The past few months Joan and I have been strategically building a partnership that will advance this dream into reality.

An exciting opportunity to advance the Gospel in Asia is before us.  Two thousand years ago God’s Spirit sent Paul to this region and every person had opportunity to hear the truth according to Acts 19:10.  Today,  Asia is home to over ninety percent of the unreached people groups of the world.  Over two billion individuals have no access to the gospel.   A Indonesian peasant woman may travel for 5 kilometers a day to find water.  We consider that a sacrifice but at least she knows where to find it.  That same peasant women has no idea how to find forgiveness provided by Jesus.  

Joan and I  are embarking on an exploratory trip in December to the region of Asia as we begin to globally strategize to reach the many  unreached people groups of this region.   We will be traveling to Cambodia to a region of Buddhist followers that are unengaged with the Gospel.  Our purpose will be to plant four churches in the region and equip leaders to reproduce those churches.  We will then travel to two areas in India controlled by Muslims.  Those who follow Christ in the region are experiencing great persecution.  We will be trusting the Spirit again as we train leaders and help them to plant more churches reproduced by indigenous believers.  

The greater purpose of this exploratory trip is to understand better how to lead the work of  leaders across Asia in both new and established ministry.  We ultimately will be responsible for leading a strategy team of mission leaders who will intentionally pray, strategize and serve to see Acts 19:10 become a reality once again in the region.  

We ask for your prayers knowing God has huge plans for this partnership.  May  He display His glory and accomplish all that He desires.

Until the Nations Hear,

Mark
