International Partner: South Asia
So many of South Asia’s 1.8 billion people have never heard the name of Jesus. God is at work and the church is growing, but there are so many people who have yet to hear the good news of the Gospel. First Baptist Church of Melbourne entered a partnership in 2018 with workers seeking to share the love of Christ in a specific area of a large city in South Asia. Our goal is to plant churches that will in turn plant churches. Sharing the message of the hope that Jesus gives us through friendship, prayer, and encouragement to believers are some of our efforts there.
Current Prayer Requests
(Last Updated December 10, 2025)
Pray:
- Please pray for our new teammates, a family of five that just moved to the city in August. Ask the Lord to help them acclimate (especially the three small children) and for them to love the people of this city a little more every day.
- Also continued prayer for the new young woman from a different part of the country who came to here and became a part of our team in mid-October.
- Please pray for our partners, Kamboi and Bina who just had a baby. They had already adopted two teenagers and now have a newborn. They are in their mid-30’s and adjusting to life with a baby, and now also were about to move back from their village to here! Please pray for them to find a good home for their family, and again for the Lord to provide for all their needs. Please also ask the Lord to open doors for fruitful ministry once they get back here.
- Please pray for two red light ladies, Rubina and Alia, who are trying to leave the red-light area and enter job training. Please ask the Lord to help both women have the courage to follow Jesus with their whole hearts (against the wishes of their families or their communities) and ask the Lord to give them new lives.
