Enoch

U.S. Based - East Asia

Church Planter Training & Equipping 

Spouse: Karen 
Children: Calvin and Chara 

As International Director of the East Asia Partnership, Enoch can now travel back to his home country after being locked out due to the pandemic. The newest equipping track is the focus of teaching, equipping, and counseling house church pastors by several teams of Partnership staff working with Enoch to grow and strengthen the national church. The Jakarta 2023 convention, their fourth triennial gathering of pastors and leaders, brought over 1,500 together in December to celebrate and encourage gospel theology bringing focus on Christ the King to growing numbers of East Asians. The Partnership continues its Leadership Institute via multiple cohorts of both team led and local pastor led trainings to grow the church there, despite growing persecution and worsening economic conditions in China. Enoch maintains strong relationships with many leaders in the network and close friendships with 30 to 50 of the top leaders. 

Prayer Requests:

  • Pray for the organization of next June's pastoral and church planting forum outside East Asia, a more secure environment, for training, encouragement, and fellowship not possible in-country. 
  • Pray that God keeps the doors to China open, allowing the church to mature and flourish in the face of severe persecution and continue to evangelize passionately. 
  • Pray for Enoch's daughter Chara who is preparing for college from their home in New Jersey while Enoch resumes his heavy travel schedule, and that ministry support will return to pre-pandemic levels.
