“In the market area, there is a widow who doesn’t have any other relatives around her. I met her at a gathering. She had to move her house to another place, but there wasn’t anyone to help her. I went and helped her move to her new house, and after that, we started a new house church with around 10 women in her home. Those women were her neighbors, and some of them were new believers.” - Raba*, Bangladesh
Shifting Tides in Bangladesh: A New Season for the Shifting Tides in Bangladesh: A New Season for the Church

In May, on social media and in our newsletter, we’ll be highlighting our work in the country of Bangladesh. 

Bangladesh is the world’s eighth most populous nation. The disaster-prone country was battered by Cyclone Remal last May, and in July, student-led protests advocating for reform of the nation’s civil service quota system were violently repressed by the government. This only led to wider protests expressing frustration over 15 years of increasingly authoritarian rule from then-Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her Awami League party. On August 5th 2024, with protestors having nearly stormed her official residence, Hasina resigned as Prime Minister and fled to India. An interim government was then created, with Nobel Laureate and creator of microfinance Muhammad Yunus being named as its leader. While the overthrow of Hasina’s government was largely supported by Bangladesh’s people, there were cases of violence against Hindus, Christians, and other minorities by extremist groups; Hasina’s government was a promoter of secularism, and Islamist elements saw her ousting as a chance to persecute minorities with impunity. Thankfully, these incidents largely subsided as the situation stabilized, and from late 2024 onward Christians in Bangladesh (who compose just 0.3% of the population) found themselves in a new, largely more hopeful context in which to love and serve their Muslim, Hindu, and tribal/animist neighbors.

It’s not just a donation—it’s an investment in lasting change.

“Why Harvest Bridge? We are amazed at the work, trials, and resilience of our brothers and sisters in South Asia. We are honored to be one with them in Christ and to support the global mission of reaching others for Jesus, providing for those in need, and stewarding our agency and resources for the kingdom of God. We give to Harvest Bridge because they are doing these things well, supporting those who are truly living for the Lord in difficult and challenging circumstances and empowering people to live meaningful, productive, and free lives in Jesus Christ. Thank you for doing it right, Harvest Bridge!” - Steve & Sarah

“We were inspired back then, and continue to be inspired by the stories we hear...how these women learn new skills, sell their products, support their families, create community and most of all, use their precious time to share Jesus with other women in need.” - Todd & Tanya

“I am blessed to see how Harvest Bridge a) “does much with little”, and b) strengthens and supports native and local Christian leaders in South Asia.” 
- Austin, Board Member

"2024 was a year of growth, experimentation, and t "2024 was a year of growth, experimentation, and training! Due to a large gift received at the end of 2023, along with your continued generous giving, we were in a position to invest in projects and programs that our leaders have had vision for, but often are more difficult to raise funds for. This is because we may not get many designated funds for that category of project. Or it's an experimental program and we want to test it before scaling up. Or it's for a great leader who simply isn't gifted in creating a compelling proposal or report, which in turn makes it harder to raise funds for their work. By investing in more of the ministry that our leaders are most adept at, as well as supporting projects meant to self-sustain them, we look forward to much fruit in years to come!” 
- Kate Therese, Executive Director.

“The nature of the ministry we do in Nepal is st “The nature of the ministry we do in Nepal is strategic in terms of sharing the Gospel to the people. We are using ministry methods like community savings groups. In our now 70+ savings groups they have been able to share the Gospel to more than 1,000 people and led about 250 people to Christ. Those 250 newly baptized Christians are deeply rooted in Christ as well as doing great and remarkable business through the money they loan from their saving group. 

23 new church-based savings groups were started this year. Jandi* explains the economic impact: ‘They meet mostly every month. Some groups meet two times in a month, and they talk, they pray, they share, they visit. It's really good. The people in savings groups, they started keeping turkeys and ducks and they are buying some other animals. They are creating new ideas for business. They sell their goods, and they make profit out of that. They are paying their children's school fees, and they are providing food. The people who were unable to even offer a cup of tea, now they are feeding their [guests] with chicken and rice.’” ~ Pastor Shalva*

“There are many encouraging, exciting and surprising parts in the ministry because God Almighty is working through us for His glory beyond our expectations. I want to list them in brief: thousands of people are hearing the Gospel and hundreds of them have committed their lives to follow Christ Jesus our Lord. We have been encouraged that with little resources in the remote villages, people in acute poverty are serving the Lord. We are very much excited by seeing the zeal for the Gospel in the lives of newcomers to Christ. They have been leading hundreds of their friends, relatives, co-workers and neighboring people to Christ. We see God's provision through Harvest Bridge, prayer partners, and unseen sources in the time of acute crises in the country as well as among the lives of the people. We now see the progress in savings group ministry beyond our expectations.” - Pastor Shalva*

Please pray for the people of Kashmir and India fo Please pray for the people of Kashmir and India following the deadly attack on tourists in Kashmir on April 22nd, which has left more than two dozen people dead. Tragically, we learned yesterday that the brother of one of the women who has gone through one of our vocational trainings was killed. At this time, there is still much that is unknown about the attack. But it has caused immediate unrest in the region, and backlash against Kashmiri people, according to some of our contacts in the area. Pray for justice to be done, pray for no more innocent lives to be lost as a response to this attack, and pray for comfort and healing for those who were injured or who lost their loved ones.
The latest update on Myanmar earthquake relief is The latest update on Myanmar earthquake relief is that as of Tuesday, April 22nd (25 days post-earthquake) we've helped nearly 4000 people, not including people rescued, comforted, helped to the hospital, and more. It includes providing about 1365 people with one month of food + mosquito nets + first aid kits. And about 2520 people with 2-3 days of food and electrolyte enhanced water. This has been done with about $23,000. With a grant from a partner organization we just send an additional $9,000 over the weekend. As always with Harvest Bridge, funds are put in the hands of local leaders who understand local needs. They've done much with little, and your support has allowed them to multiply that work. Thank you! Give to disaster relief using the link in our bio.
Through medical care, Christ’s love is made tang Through medical care, Christ’s love is made tangible in the Andaman Islands.

“The medical ministry has been a significant component of the outreach program, focusing on the holistic well-being of the community. I and my team have actively prayed for the sick, offering spiritual and emotional comfort to those suffering from illness. Alongside medical assistance, the ministry distributed edible items such as rice, pulses, and cooking oil to sick families, ensuring their basic needs were met during recovery. This practical care has touched the lives of many, helping both physically and spiritually. Building on the success of the medical outreach, I hope to increase the frequency and reach of medical camps. Alongside medical help, I plan to continue providing practical support such as food and supplies to those in need, showing Christ’s love in action.” - Pastor Manu*

From the pastors in the Andaman Islands, thank you From the pastors in the Andaman Islands, thank you. Your prayers give strength and your giving opens doors.

“I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for your unwavering support, both financially and in prayer. Despite the challenges and persecution we face, your continued encouragement has allowed us to remain steadfast and faithful in sharing the Gospel and serving the community. Your prayers have been a source of strength, and the financial support you have provided has enabled us to conduct medical outreach, house visits, and evangelism efforts, impacting many lives both spiritually and physically. We have witnessed God’s hand at work, and this would not have been possible without your generosity and commitment to His Kingdom.
