Dear Mission Prayer Partners,
We are delighted to share with you the testimony of our recent mission trip to Rote Island, NTT, in partnership with Harvest Mission, Bali.
The journey itself was challenging. Traveling from Balikpapan to Kupang via Makassar, followed by a four-hour ferry crossing and additional road travel, all within a day, required much endurance. Yet through your prayers and God's sustaining grace, we experienced His strength every step of the way.
During the 11-day mission from April 9–20, our schedule was fully occupied with ministry opportunities. Each day was divided into two parts: mornings in schools and evenings in churches.
We visited six schools and ministered to approximately 1,600 children. Through Indian songs and dances, we shared short messages about living honorable lives, respecting society, and understanding God's purpose for their lives. The response from the students was both joyful and inspiring.
In the evenings, local churches organized special revival meetings. We ministered in eight revival events and four Sunday services, reaching more than 1,000 people with the Word of God. During these meetings, we gave opportunities for people to respond to God's call. Our messages focused on building faith in Christ alone, walking according to His Word, and trusting Him in every circumstance.
Many communities in the region continue to struggle with the influence of witchcraft, black magic practices, and spiritual instability. Therefore, our emphasis was not primarily on miracles and healing, but on repentance, forgiveness of sins, and restoration through Jesus Christ. We encouraged people to turn away from sinful practices and return wholeheartedly to God.
One of the most moving experiences was witnessing children, youth, and adults respond to the Gospel. Seeing many come forward, leaving behind worldly lifestyles and sinful practices, and surrendering themselves to the Lord was truly encouraging.
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all who showed us love, hospitality, and support during our time in Kupang and Rote Island.
