Conferences & Ministry Outreach
Prior to the team’s arrival, $13,000 was sent to prepare for ministry, including:
- Conference and ministry event preparations. As in Laos, we held men’s and women’s conferences to encourage believers. The men’s conference theme was “Builders in the Harvest,” and the women’s conference was “Harvest of Joy.”
- Care packages for refugee families.
- Prison ministry outreach. Care packages for women and men were handed out. Many hands were raised in response to the gospel messages that were preached by the team.
- Fifty 50-kilogram sacks of rice distributed to pastors and their families.
- Additional ministry expenses associated with the outreach.
Kingdom Impact
The mission team worked diligently to advocate for these needs by sharing God stories, providing ministry updates, and identifying strategic opportunities where resources could have the greatest Kingdom impact. Faithful and generous supporters responded with extraordinary generosity, giving above and beyond to meet these needs.
Because of their partnership, lives were transformed across Laos and Cambodia. Widows of persecuted believers were comforted and cared for. Churches were strengthened with much-needed resources. Pastors and refugee leaders received practical tools to continue sharing the Gospel in some of the world’s most challenging places. New water wells and community toilets brought hope, dignity, and improved health to communities while creating opportunities to share the love of Christ. Women were empowered through vocational training, prisoners heard the Good News, and ministry leaders were refreshed and encouraged to remain faithful to their calling.
Every dollar invested became more than a financial gift. It became a testimony of God’s provision, a reminder that the global Church has not forgotten them, and an investment in the advancement of the Gospel where it is needed most.
Thank you for partnering with 24:14 World and International Women’s Ministries as we continue our mission of “Wiping Tears, Reaping a Harvest.” Together, we are making an eternal difference for the Kingdom of God.
Together in the Harvest,
