Two villages were sharing one water source but it was not enough. One village cut Napho village off. A pipeline was built which brought fresh clean water from a river. Everyone now has all that they need. Everyone is enthusiastic and grateful, especially the ladies who no longer have to walk a long way to get water. Circle of Love also sponsored a truck for ministry use in Vientiane. It is used to transport young people to our ministry house where they worship, hear the Gospel, fellowship over food and sometimes sleepover. Many young ladies who work in the garment industry have responded to the Gos- pel. A baptism/picnic is held periodically on the banks of the Mekong River. Pray for these young ladies who have a tough life and often face persecu- tion for their faith. Circle of Love has started supporting 10 pastors inside Laotian men excited about having Laos who oversee the church.

Chapter 2: Roots in the United States and Some Significant Successes in Asia Chapter 3: Parameters of the Situation in Sri Lanka Chapter 4: Parameters of the Situation in Nepal Chapter 5: The Activities of Christian Evangelical Groups, and the Possibility of Conflict and Violence in South Asia? Bibliography CHAPTER 1: Introduction: Evangelism or Fundamentalism? Religion has been a major component in routine life in South Asia for a considerable period of time.Similarly, it has also been a major player in politics and conflict formation as well as a source for mass mobilization for socio-culturally and politically motivated millenarian or revivalist movements in the region. In India, a sense of distrust between Hindus and Muslims has become steadily institutionalized since the partition. The primaryreason for the creation of Bangladesh and Pakistan had been the religious differences between the populations in these areas and what constitutes India today.In Sri Lanka, Hinduism and Buddhism are primary markers in the cultural and ethnic identities of Sinhalas and Tamils.Such differences in identities play a major role in perpetuating the on going ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka, particularly due to the manner in which such identities areperceived and represented in popular belief and conservative academic discourse.While the mere differences in cultural identities were not the cause of the inter-ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka, the religious differences between the two groups have been manifestly used by nationalistand chauvinist politicians among both groups for sectarian purposes.

    Learning to Pray “The potency of prayer hath subdued the strength of fire; it hath bridled the rage of lions, hushed anarchy to rest, extinguished wars, appeased the elements, expelled the demons, burst the chains of death, expanded the gates of heaven, assuaged dis- eases, repelled frauds, rescued cities from destruction, stayed the sun in its course, and arrested the progress of the thunderbolt. Prayer is all-efficient panoply, a treasure undiminished, a mine which is never exhausted, a sky unobscured by clouds, a heaven unruffled by storm.

    [AJPS 8:1 (2005), pp. 67-94] CRITIQUE OF PENTECOSTAL MISSION BY A FRIENDLY EVANGELICAL Roger E. Hedlund 1. Introduction In the conclusion of his 1997 revision of his study of the Pentecostal-Charismatic movements, Vinson Synan states, “Christian affairs of the twenty-first century may be largely in the hands of surging Pentecostal churches in the Third World and a Roman Catholicism inspired and revivified by the charismatic renewal.” 1 Hollenweger likewise indicates that Pentecostalism today is centered outside the West in a growing Third World movement.2 Indeed Pentecostalism during the twentieth century has emerged from the status of a marginalized sect to become a major tradition of Christianity. With 193 million (19.3 crores) members in 1990, the Pentecostals were the largest Protestant group of churches in the world.3 In addition to these denominational Pentecostals, if one includes mainline Charismatic Protestants and Catholics, the total is more than 372 million (37 crores) which is 21.4 percent of the world’s Christians.4 Also in 1990, out of an estimated 4 million (40 lakh) full-time Christian workers, 1.1 million (11 lakh) were Pentecostal-Charismatics.5 “Fully 1 Vinson Synan, The Holiness-Pentecostal Tradition: Charismatic Movements in the Twentieth Century (Grand Rapids/Cambridge: Eerdmans, 1997), p. 298. 2 Walter J.

  • Revolution in World Missions Was Actually a Revolution in My Mind and Heart
    READERS RESPOND . Revolution in World Missions was actually a revolution in my mind and heart. —Marysabel M., Montreal, Canada I’ve read Revolution in World Missions several times. Just like the message of salvation, the book never grows old. —Elizabeth K., Queens Village, New York I started reading it and could not put it down. It was like part two of the book of Acts. —Gareth W., Staffordshire, England I just read Revolution in World Missions. The Holy Spirit has led me today to stop just going to church but to BE the church! —Susan S., Altoona, Iowa Revolution in World Missions made me realize that the difference between poor and rich people is not just a fairy tale, something we see only in movies. This discovery broke my heart. —Thelma P., Debrecen, Hungary I was caught up in the book. It made me study and pray more often and harder. —David S., Jacksonville, Illinois Revolution in World Missions spoke volumes to me. My budget was/is filled with things that have no eternal value. God con- victed my heart! —Pastor Rudi B., Western Cape, South Africa I am convinced, having served 20 years as a pastor and in other church ministries, that this is the way missions is supposed to be done! —Pastor Samuel M., Bluff City, Tennessee I can tell you that this reading literally blew my mind. It is as- tonishing to see what God is doing in Asia. I am so excited to be part of this. —Armando R., Panama City, Panama I was a Christian who mainly believed that God no longer worked in the same way He did in the book of Acts.
