Hearing God’s voice and Responding to others’ “A miracle that I witnessed in the last six months was in the life of an old woman named Junu, aged 58. Junu was also my neighbour. She was very nosy and talkative, but whenever I talked to her about the Gospel or my testimony, she’d get really […]
On March 4th, one of the missionaries who we have supported for seven years in the Andaman Islands entered into God’s presence. Our leader on the islands, Pastor Ram*, shares about her legacy (for others’ security, we have removed most of the specific ministry and location names, as well as keeping all names anonymous): “Obituary: […]

As I pore through six month reports from our South Asian missionaries, A.W. Tozer’s wisdom comes to mind: “God does not love populations, He loves people. He loves not masses, but men.” Reading through stories of persecution, miracles, prayers and answers to prayer, six-month goals, and current ministry emphases is a reminder of how unique […]
Serve the LORD with gladness! ~ Psalm 100:2 My visit to Myanmar (Burma) last month started off on the wrong foot. From a human perspective, we were focused and productive, but I lost sight of the heart of what we do. Thankfully, on my visit to a children’s home Harvest Bridge supports, God used the […]
“I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year…” ~ Charles Dickens This time last year, I was spending Christmas in Myanmar (Burma) at a children’s home with 18 children. Four were the children of the pastor and his wife who run the home, and 14 were there because […]
