“How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in?
And how can they
believe in the one of whom they have no heard? And how can they
hear without
someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they
are sent? As
it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring
good news!”
-Romans 10:13-15

Dear friend!
Greetings in the Lord! I hope everything is going well with you
in the Lord! I
wanted to take this brief time to share with you regarding an
opportunity the Lord
has opened in my life to go on missions this winter.
From January 28th-February 4th, I will be traveling with a
missions team to
the nation of Bangladesh with my church, New Philadelphia Church
(www.facebook.com/newphilly). My team consists of 10 people who
are giving up
their vacation days for the cause of the gospel. What’s exciting
and humbling about
our missions trip is that we’ll be preaching and evangelizing to
unreached towns in
the villages of Bangladesh, to people who have never heard of the
name of Jesus.
Bangladesh is 90% Muslim and there are 85,000 villages there that
have not heard
even a glimmer of the gospel.
I’m personally humbled and challenged on going on this trip! I
know that a
missions trip to Bangladesh can be a physically challenging one,
but I’m equally
confident that with your prayers and support, the Lord will more
than surplus His
extravagant grace and power upon our team and make us effective
witnesses of His
gospel.
There are two ways in which you can partner with me on this
missions trip.
First, I’d like to ask you for prayer. If you go to
facebook.com/newphilly, there will
be daily updates from the field of our team’s progress so you can
pray specifically.
Secondly, I will be raising 1,125,000 to cover some of the trip
expenses. If you’d like
to help, please visit the web site: http://support.newphilly.cc.
A team profile and
picture is available there.
Thank you so much for your time in reading this letter!
Contending for His Kingdom,
Joel Kim
