We will not hide them from their children,
but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the LORD,
and his might, and the wonders that he has done.
( Psalms 78:4 )

Dear family and friends,
Greetings! How are you? I pray that this letter finds you and your family healthy and rejoicing in the Lord. After my first mission trip to Japan a year ago, God has placed a love for mission in my heart. I have prayed and thought about it a lot and have decided to give my summer to God by serving Him on the mission field. Now, I want to share my heart with you.
From July 22 to July 29, I will be
going on a mission trip to Jakarta,
Indonesia with my church “New Philadelphia”
(newphiladelphiachurch.com). My team consists of 10 servant
hearted sons and daughters in Christ who are giving up their
vacation days and free time to go to this nation and display the
love of Jesus Christ.
During this 7 day missions trip, we will be leading an
Orientation Retreat for the students of IKAT Bible College in
Jakarta. We will be releasing the inheritance of New Philadelphia
Church to empower these students to reach the lost in Indonesia,
which known as the largest Muslim nation in the world. Besides
that, we will also spend time ministering with these students at
services in Jakarta. As a college student myself, I’m so excited
to see God move in a mighty way to prepare the next generation of
young people. I believe that God will equip theses students to
become great leaders who will share the gospel and bring revival
to this nation.
God has opened up a door for me to develop a greater heart for
His people around the world and specifically in Indonesia. You
can join me in two ways! First, I would like to ask for
prayer. I am asking you to partner with
me in prayer. Pray that God will prepare me and my team for our
visit and bless our efforts as we minister to the people of
Indonesia. Please do keep us in your prayers, not only during the
mission trip but before and after as well. You can also go to
facebook.com/newphilly, there will be daily updates from the
field of our team’s progress that you can pray specifically.
Second, I would like to ask for financial
support as I will be raising 600,000 krw to cover
some of the trip expenses (The total cost of the trip is
1,200,000krw. I have already sown in a personal deposit and need
to raise the remaining amount). If you decide to financially
support me, please use this site to support me. All of your
support is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for reading. May God bless you.
Yours truly,
Dorrine Tan
