Basic food items have been distributed to 300 pastors and evangelists in Indonesia, thanks to you.

Many of these church leaders have planted churches in Muslim-majority areas while also working second jobs to maintain their ministry.

Our brothers and sisters are a minority in this country. They often live in remote and impoverished regions and face severe socio-economic challenges, including limited access to education, employment, healthcare and even basic infrastructure.

Thanks to your donations, these pastors and evangelists will be able to concentrate on serving God without worrying how they can feed their families

Believers in rural Indonesia are often poor, and congregations are small.

Church members love their pastors, but simply cannot provide them with a full wage. For this reason, many pastors and church planters set up small businesses alongside their Gospel work.

Pastor Irawan from Central Java sells fish to meet the daily needs of his family. “I received your help right at the time I needed it,” he said. “This makes me even more enthusiastic in serving God. Thank you very much. God bless you.”

How you can pray

Give thanks for the strong faith and dedication of pastors and evangelists working in Indonesia, who carry on with their ministry even when it does not provide enough money to feed their families.

Praise God for enabling Barnabas to send food to these church leaders, so that they will be able to concentrate on their ministry without worrying how they will have enough to eat.

Pray for Christians in Indonesia, that they will not be discouraged by the economic difficulties they face and that they will keep a strong and joyful faith in the Lord through all their challenges.
