Ever-reliable Faithfulness of God
Dear Christ’s co-laborer,
I am so deeply grateful for your continued support and partnership. Your faithfulness is the heartbeat of this work, and it is a joy to see how God is using our shared commitment to bring hope across the Asia Pacific. Thank you for standing with us as we mobilize more conventions, churches, including the next generation for His glory.
Our Shared Heart for the Asia Pacific
This past year has been a powerful reminder of why we do what we do: to see God’s redemptive mission take root across every corner of the Asia Pacific. By connecting churches and empowering local leaders, we aren't just running programs; we are fueling a movement of transformation. This vision shared in an APBF wide mission consultation resulted in a shared effort to cumulatively reach over 3,500 people across 25 countries, with a deep focus on reaching those who have yet to hear the Gospel.
We are grateful also that God’s faithfulness to our family are always felt. Despite my frequent travels domestically and internationally, God is faithful in everything from big provisions, to small everyday activities. My eldest daughter Joanna, is in her final semester of her university study, and is due to graduate in the middle of the year in 2026. My youngest daughter Melody, is in 11th grade, we are grateful for the opportunity she has received in extracurricular activities including a highlight of participating in a simulation of being part of a UN commission.
Stories of Transformation
I’ve been so moved by the stories coming from the field. In Nagaland, India, our "1 Church, 1 Youth" initiative sent 50 young people on their first cross-cultural mission trips—seeing their passion for service ignite has been a personal highlight. In Indonesia, we’ve seen hundreds of Gospel encounters among unreached groups, while young creators are now using digital vlogs to share the stories of the Manggarai and Ngada peoples with thousands of viewers worldwide.
Strengthening the Foundation
Our work also goes deep into the lives of those leading the way. In Mongolia, I saw pastors and their spouses find renewal through a retreat focused on family discipleship—the very foundation of a healthy ministry. Meanwhile, in the South Asia and Himalayan region, your support allowed APBF Mission to facilitate holistic relief to 418 families, celebrating seven beautiful baptisms along the way. Whether it’s through small-group training in the Pacific Islands or relief in the mountains, our goal remains the same: walking together in obedience and hope.
Prayer requests:
Please pray for the final semester of my eldest, as she does her thesis for her graduation requirement, and pray for my youngest as she prepares to enter her final year of high school including sifting through the university and major she is to take.
Please pray for APBF’s main program/strategy, it is called the Holistic Transformation Movement. It seeks to mobilize the whole of APBF to unite in prayer, worship, discipleship, community presence, and sending to all peoples.
Please pray for the #APBF2mil, pray the start made by Nagaland Baptist that all youth of the APBF be mobilized for a cross-cultural mission trip. Pray for an APBF initiated mission trip for youth to Cambodia in June-July.
We are so grateful to have you walking this journey with us. Your prayers and your partnership as BMS family are the foundation that allows this work to flourish across the Asia Pacific. We truly could not do this without you, and we are honored to be your co-laborers in Christ’s redemptive mission.
With love and gratitude,
Ardi
