2022 Deeper & Wider Highlights
2022 was a difficult year, but thanks to your partnership and the grace of God we continued to see growth within China:
-
22 new churches planted across China.
-
2,404 people, including pastors, elders, deacons, church leaders, and small group leaders, registered for the online pastoral forum to receive training and encouragement.
-
16 pastors graduated from the Leadership Institute, and all of them spoke at length about how transformative the experience was. Interest is growing from pastors all across China, so much so that new applicants had to be limited. In October, 24 new pastors started the program as a part of the next round of cohorts.
-
25,236 devices across China logged in to view monthly “City Proverbs” evangelistic meetings, in which pastors and church leaders spoke about the gospel and culture.
-
211 people joined the first-ever preaching training launched in partnership with Simeon Trust. 309 people joined the second training, and interest is growing.
This Lunar New Year, we are especially grateful for you. 2022 was a particularly difficult and heartbreaking year of ministry. Yet we are thankful for all of our friends and partners who consistently came alongside us all year, whether through a personal conversation, a prayer, a timely financial gift, or a word of encouragement. Thank you for your steadfastness in the midst of so much uncertainty. You are truly a gracious gift of God.
Wishing you all the best this Lunar New Year.
In Christ,
-The China Partnership Team
