GREETINGS to you all our valuable Friends, Families and Partners for your genericity to embracing the evangelism and church planting mission work here in Kupang Nusa Tenggara Timur Indonesia. “We acknowledge your prayers and the resources that contributed towards this missions exposure, our ministry motto NEVER LEAVE ONE BEHIND, it is paramount to reach out to every single person next to us as well as villages and urban centers around where we focus. “God gave us the spiritual mandate to go and preach the gospel, whoever believe and is baptize will be save Mathew 28.18-20 therefore Adonai Worship Center Local church this year 2024 aside of our local church ministry priorities we also value missions as important part of the local church vision. Our desire is to reach many souls and build Gods kingdom in this planet earth  especially in this part of Indonesia.

Since we where building Adonai worship Center local church in the year 2016 we try to utilize the little financial resources  we have to build this local church building. it take’s approximately eight years until 2023. Those years we hasn’t able to visit urban centers and villages, however we are fully engage to complete the main church as are bases for future effective church planting missions. “Praise God, all though Adonai Worship Center local church is not fully completed at this states, but we felt in our spirit  to  expend the gospel to the remote frontier missions beginning this year 2024 and beyond. “This year our local church have prayerfully decided to adopted district 8 and district 15 from our region, this two district will be under our local church overseer, more precisely we discovered our frontier pastors and church planters facing dificulties in the field, financially, health, family issue that affected their spiritual energy to effectively explore the gospel to where their suppose to reach out. Therefore we decided to provide coaching and mentorship to the frontier pastor’s from this two district first, our main focus is to planting more local churches in this two district in the future.

How to we do?  1) Our Main goals is to visit this two district every quarterly and to provide counsel as well as productive tips to help pastor’s focus on the evangelism and church planting work. 2) We provide frontier church planters pastors with some small financial aid on the monthly bases length of two to three years period, so far  we have started some financial aid to this three pastors already, Pastor Yohana she is a young female Pastor from  Malaka district (15) and Pastor Yakob Sobapa and wife, Pastor Arkilaus Talan and wife from Kolbano district (8) this three Pastors we will overseer their development on the church planting strategies, as soon as they have minimum 15 individuals or maximum 20 members we will considering church building. We like to support ten frontier pastor from each district totaling of  twenty Pastors in both district.

Within this two to three years period, we will monitors the development of the pastors at the frontline through the sub-district counsel , If the fellowship have minimum of 15 or maximum of 20 members that  fellowship require church building, every church building must legally establish upon the organization asset, we have classic example, many church building has taken away by those individual pastor who build church upon personal asset, therefore as we focusing on the church planting missions, either  we purchase the land or free donation from individuals or organization, that particular property  legality must under the church organization asset. After building the local church, our church will not provide financial aid anymore to the Pastors. Hence, will provide  spiritual aspect through visitation, coaching and mentorship, For their economy aspects we should have other alternatives means for their             sustainability in the field, normally this will come when we discover what ways they could able to generate income for their endeavor while serving in the local church ministry. As to how the pastor should reach as many souls to congregate in his or her church to look after the pastor while serving in that church. “For instance! before we start building Adonai church building we did support few Pastor, Pastor Merinus Kapak and family we build their Pastors house and for their church we only completed windows and doors, for Pastor Yayub Kosat and family they where are working on new church planting work our local church provide financial aid for them on the  monthly basis for three years, I have told them we will not continue support for more then three years. Alone the way I discovered, the villages where they are  now service has lots of coconut trees, I had the idea that after three years we will give this family are machine for them to do a small business to sustain their live in the field, after three years of our commitment I ask one family if they can buy a coconut scrapping machine and that family bought that machine, I call husband and wife came to the town and we gave their last support plus machine for them to do small business, I totd the husband and wife we gave you this machine to generate income to sustain the childrens school fees and the family endeavor in the field, praise God now they make some good money to look after children for their school fees and food on the table for family. God will open the flood gate of God heaven to provide provision to us to stand beside this great man and women of God in the field to reach out to many souls for Gods glory Amen.
