And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)
To my beloved family in Christ,
Greetings! I would first like to thank you for taking time to read this letter. I hope you are enjoying the warm weather. I want to take this time to share with you about a mission trip that I will be having the privilege to serve with this summer.
From July 25 to August 1, I will be in Bangladesh serving on a mission’s trip with my church “New Philadelphia” (newphiladelphiachurch.com). I will be joining a team of 12 amazing, Jesus loving, New Philly leaders to serve the Bengalis, who are the largest unreached people group in the world. We will be sent out to partner with local indigenous pastors, heal the sick, hold revival services and children’s’ ministries, and release revival fire!
Bangladesh is a nation that was highlighted to me from the very beginning and I am honored to be used to sow into this nation! Bangladesh is 98 percent Bengali and they are the largest unreached people group in the world. About 90 percent of the population is Muslim and around 0.66 percent is Christian. Though the nation is predominantly Muslim, over half of the population is under 16 years old. I personally believe that God is going to spark revival amongst the youth of this nation and release true freedom in Him. It is so important to sow strategically into the Bengali people. Bangladesh is God’s!
This will be my very first mission trip with New Philly and I am truly filled with joy and expectancy to see God’s manifest presence be released to the Bengalis. In the past, I had the honor to intercede for our missions’ teams who were sent out to the Philippines, India, Cambodia and more. I’ve heard so many amazing testimonies from these mission trips of immeasurable salvations, miraculous healings, and people being set free from bondage and receiving fresh fire from the Holy Spirit. I personally believe that all the remarkable testimonies that we have witnessed in the past mission trips are just the floor of what is to come this summer. We are pressing in and asking God for more signs and wonders and salvation to be released in Bangladesh! Hallelujah!
I hope that excitement is stirring up in your heart at this very moment. At this time, I would personally like to invite you to partner with me through prayer. Your prayer has power and it will be needed as my team and I are on the field. In order to be sent to Bangladesh, I am also called to personally raise 1, 125,000 KRW. The money will be used for my flight, food and accommodation. If you would like to support me monetarily, a form is attached to this letter. If you would like to support via Internet, you can visit our Church missions’ support Website (http://support.newphilly.cc).
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. You are truly a blessing.
Your Sister in Christ,
Tina Lee
