Impacting lives during the pandemic
Here are just a handful of stories that show how we are impacting lives with relevant Bible teaching, prayers and practical help.
Join our outreach workers to disciple and inspire more Christians at this critical time.
Armenia
Our team launched a special app during the lockdown to send daily snippets from Derek’s teaching to hundreds of local Christians. Also, during the lockdown, they took meals to the isolated elderly in Yerevan and included a copy of The Divine Exchange on every box of food they distributed. They are continuing to pray with people and share with them messages of God’s love and hope.
China
Building a comprehensive online presence in China has really paid off, especially during this critical time. Currently, many Chinese Christians can access Derek’s materials online in digital and audio formats.
Here is how God is blessing these online labours: “I am a sister in Wuhan. My city has experienced the darkest time recently. So many people died—so many heart-broken every day. My church had to stop normal Sunday services, so all of us had to stay at home, isolated from each other. I felt very scared and my faith dropped to the lowest. But I still can get many encouragements from your Derek Prince materials. These words really enlightened my heart and let me re-focus on Christ’s unchanging love and help.”
Eastern Europe
During the lockdown, our translators and proof-readers were busy getting new books ready for print in 11 languages. In Romania, thanks to a partnership with a Christian internet radio station we are broadcasting over 135 short audio messages reaching the young generation with the gospel and discipling new believers.
Israel
During the lockdown, a lot of people were online, so we seized this opportunity to connect with them via our Facebook page. Also, we started a Bible Study correspondence course on our DPM Israel app, where people could study and complete “exams” like the Self-Study Bible Course. We have had a great response and engagement from this course.
Ukraine
Our volunteer team has distributed more than 3,500 copies of Derek's books like The Divine Exchange and Ultimate Security with free food packs for the elderly. God has touched many lives through this ministry.
Middle East
Since the start of the lockdown, our outreach team in Egypt has intensified its efforts to reach more people through Facebook, by uploading Derek’s video, posting free discipleship resources in Arabic and responding to questions from believers or seekers.
Right now, our Arabic Facebook page has over 93,000 followers and about 90,000 people who like this page. Hundreds of people are signing up for our online courses and our workers are having many fruitful conversations with them.
South Africa
Thousands of Christians across Southern Africa are benefiting from free access to Derek’s teaching via the website and social media channels during the lockdown. Thanks to a successful partnership with Impact Radio Derek’s teaching on ‘Where to find Security’ and ‘Facing the Future’ has blessed and strengthened the faith of many during these hard times.
Give £15 today to enable our workers to seize more opportunities for resourcing Christians worldwide in these difficult times.
