TEACHING OUR YOUTH
God has given us a great responsibility to teach our youth His precious Word. Whether with our Children’s Church or VBS Camps, we always highlight reading, meditating, and memorizing God’s Word. We especially focus on this with the children living in our orphanage/love house. These children start each day with a time of worship, prayer, and a short devotion before they get ready for school. Then, they end their day with a group reading of 3 chapters of the Bible followed by a time of prayer.
Plus, the 6 older children join other youth on Sunday afternoons for Evangelism training. They have an hour class and then go out into the neighborhood looking for children to interact with in hopes of sharing the Gospel and inviting them to Children’s Church. By instilling God’s Word in these precious children’s heart, we seek to equip them to stand firm in their faith as they are surrounded by non-Christians in their neighborhoods and schools. And, in many instances in their own families.
WITNESSING TEAM AT WORK
Our adult witnessing team continues to go out each Thursday afternoon to meet new families in hopes of sharing the Gospel. Once a month they return to Tanh Linh to meet new families or disciple new believers there.
VBS CAMP 2025
The planning for our summer VBS Camp is underway as we have selected June 16-19 as the dates it will be held. We already have 62 children signed up to attend. Praise the Lord!
Please join us in praying God will give us 100 children this year to show and share the love of Jesus with during our VBS Camp.
PRAYER REQUESTS
Please pray God will give both our adult and youth witnessing teams many Divine appointments to share the Gospel.
We will be starting construction of our 2nd orphanage/love house right after our VBS Camp ends this summer. Please pray God will give us wisdom in our planning and favor where needed for this important and much needed project.
Please pray for Thuong (Pastor Tu’s wife) as she is pregnant with their 3rd child. They have 2 daughters and are excited to have a son this coming May. Please pray for God’s protection on Thuong and He will give them a healthy baby boy.
Please continue to pray for Quang (one of our deacons) as he serves our Lord in the Binh Chau Church. Quang is now teaching the high school/middle school Bible study class at Children’s Church.

Jesus in Vietnam Ministries, is a compassion ministry founded by Dennis and Mai Spencer. Vietnamese families suffer from deprivation, lacking sometimes even the necessities of life. In obedience to the many Scriptural commands to help the poor they are enabling families to survive in difficult circumstances. When shown mercy these families are very receptive to the Gospel. The Spencer’s also focus on children, who are the future church of Jesus Christ in Vietnam.
