Dear Praying Friends, 

We’re re-structuring our main newsletter to focus more on three things: 1) our prayer list, 2) DMM ministry highlights from our DMM network leaders and their specific prayer needs, and 3) consistency–we want to attempt to send out a DMM Ministry Highlight email out once every month. Thank God, there’s lots to share!

If you haven’t yet, could you please take one or two minutes to pray for the requests above? We sincerely appreciate and rely on your prayers.

In this letter we have asked Ps. Bruce Koller to write our DMM Ministry Highlight. God is doing exciting things amongst minority groups in Hong Kong through the the faithful labors of Ps. Bruce and Brother Andrew, an inside leader that God has raised up.

DMM Ministry Highlight:
Pastor Bruce

Discovery Bible Study

“Every Tuesday night we gather in the New Territories to study God’s word with Hindus and Muslims from India, Pakistan, Egypt, Middle East and other parts of North Africa. Many of these men are refugees or asylum seekers in Hong Kong. And I’m so grateful to our brother Andrew for the pivotal leadership role he plays in the formation of these and other meetings due to his insider access to these cultures.

This Tuesday night group has been meeting for over a year. In that time, several of the refugees have returned to their homeland with the seeds of the gospel planted in their hearts, and by God’s grace, they continue to grow. Some in the group have made a commitment to follow Jesus, but all of them are taking the journey to find out who Jesus is and what the Kingdom of God is all about.

Before coming to Hong Kong most of them had only heard about Christianity but hadn’t met a Christian or entered a church. Could it be that they have been drawn to Hong Kong in order to hear the gospel? People who’ve moved to a new country are often looking for something they could not find in their homeland, whether they realize it or not.

Our outreach goes beyond Bible study. Sometimes food or clothes are donated for us to pass on, we visit them in hospitals, take them to doctors for treatment and do what we need to show the love of God. For many, coming into God’s Kingdom is a process. It is wonderful to see the changes God is making and bringing to these men. We are not looking for quick ‘conversions’, but rather lasting disciples.”

More harvest workers needed!

“We keep praying to the Lord of the harvest to bring more workers into this harvest field. We are in a place to bring in the harvest, and it is our vision and desire to train people up to become harvest workers as well.

Because of my position as a part-time pastor in a local Chinese church, God has opened opportunities to coach and equip brothers and sisters that have a heart to share God’s word with the lost. What I am seeing is very encouraging as more people are ‘lining up’ so to speak to be involved in God’s harvest. Jesus said, ‘Open YOUR eyes and look at the fields, they are ripe for harvest’ (John 4:35). When we are ready to ‘open our eyes and really LOOK’ we will SEE the harvest.”

We want to thank Ps. Bruce for taking the time to share with all of us about the exciting things God is doing through his DMM ministry here in Hong Kong. Please keep him in your prayers! Ps Bruce conducts his DMM ministry by faith, relying on God’s provision to cover the expenses. If you want to help support his ministry you can donate through Praxeis Hong Kong Ltd at citydisciple.com/giving/. Be sure to indicate you want the donation to go to Bruce’s ministry in the comment section with the note: “Project Bruce”.

A Final Note of Celebration!
Last but not least, we want to celebrate with Steven and Eva, our dear friends and partners in prayer and ministry, who recently welcomed their amazing newborn daughter Hannah.

Please keep them in your prayers, and praise God with us for this beautiful little person who is going to bring so much joy to the world!

Thank you so much for your prayers!

Much Love in Christ,
Mike and Alice Kitajima
