Rolly and his wife Ruth are two of our students who are serving in the mountains of Mindanao. They are sharing the Word of God with the people in a tiny village more than 1,200 feet above sea level. Please pray that the other 2,300 students who, like Rolly and Ruth, are serving faithfully in the cities, in the mountains, and in the islands, that they would also become more effective ministers of the Gospel.

In the month of September, our CCI team composed of Dr. David Nelson, seven CCI National Directors from Asia and India, and an Area Coordinator bound for Mexico went on a tour of the eastern United States. We visited churches in Washington DC, Upstate New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania to tell people about the Lord’s work in our respective countries.

We also attended Good Soil Evangelism & Discipleship Training at the International Headquarters of Association of Baptists for World Evangelism in Pennsylvania. We will use the Good Soil Training to help local pastors in their evangelism and discipleship.

It was not all work, though. We got to visit a dairy farm, a lumber yard, and a blue stone factory. We stayed in mountaintop cabins for a few days and also experienced the hospitality of many believers who welcomed us in their homes.
