Virginia

East Asia

Theological Education & Discipleship 

Virginia's highlight of this past year was the dramatic increase (doubled) in the number of students taking her theology course. In addition, a 10-year-long labor with others has produced a theological dictionary project this year. Virginia has also experienced the fallout of the pandemic with many of the churches she used to be able to work with forced underground it seems. Though Virginia is a national, she spent most of her life in a similarly cultured city in a neighboring region. Now she ministers in East Asia’s largest city which affords her some flexibility that is not available elsewhere in the country. She works with a wide range of team members from seminaries, lay leader discipleship programs, and local churches. Doing so, she can be a teacher and a missionary, speaking their language, knowing their culture, experiencing the same things they do. 

Prayer Requests: 

  • Pray for Virginia's mother who is in failing health away from Virginia. 
  • Pray for the salvation of her brother's family—Virginia is the only Christian in her family. 
  • Pray for Virginia's physical strength and health to meet the demands of the field.
