I say this because it has become a conspicuous fact in the media. Persecutions that were unheard of in the past are happening now on a regular basis.

STN India & Nepal!
The Apostle Paul was in prison and very aware that he was going to die, so he wrote to his protégé, Timothy, and encouraged him to continue the work in the church at Ephesus. Paul couldn’t reach everyone, and Timothy couldn’t reach everyone, so the ministry of multiplication had to be a priority. Paul basically challenged Timothy to do for others what Paul had done for him. By God’s grace…

Reaching Latin America with the Gospel through STN
