“One Mission · Three Countries · One Shared Love”: Lebanon, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.
June Ministry Review & Update
Dear Brothers and Sisters, Nexus’ Friends and Partners,
Over the past month, we’ve experienced God’s faithfulness and guidance in a profound way. Through ministries spanning diverse nations and cultures, God continues to work and to bring about renewed life and hope. We invite you to join us in witnessing God’s wonderful works.
Nexus Center ⛪ Lebanon: A Place Where Lives Are Built Up
At Nexus Center our weekly gatherings are vibrant and full of life: children, teens, and families worship and pray together, growing in God’s Word. As we continue to welcome newcomers, we see how God is bringing people of diverse backgrounds together and building His great big family!
👩🎓Education Brings Life Transformation
We consistently witness remarkable growth in the children— in academic achievement, in character, and in confidence. Every child is seen, loved, and encouraged to believe in their own worth.
One moving example is a child who once struggled even to hold a pen but has now become an outstanding student. This is not merely an educational achievement – it is a story of a life transformed.
“Going from ‘I can’t’ to ‘I can’ is hope breaking through tears.” “What those little hands write is more than just words—it is gratitude; every small step the child takes is a magnificent miracle in a mother’s heart.”
As he held his daughter’s report card for the first time, his eyes were filled with pride and emotion.
The report card holds more than just grades; it embodies the sweat and love poured into the journey—and the look in Dad’s eyes brings more warmth of encouragement than the grades themselves do.
👨👩👧 Family Relationships Being Established.
Our Parent-Teacher’s Meeting this month was a joy-filled, moving event. Parents not only witnessed their children’s progress but also shared with one another their stories of transformation and hope. Many parents expressed deep gratitude, noting that it was the first time they had seen their children display such confidence and sense of purpose.
🧑🤝🧑Youth Ministry: Fostering Growth Through an Environment of Love and Dignity, Building a New Generation.
Our youth gatherings continue to foster growth through worship, Bible study, discipleship, and fellowship; helping young people discover their identity and respond to God’s call. In daily life, we provide nutritious breakfasts, academic support, and diverse fellowship activities—including year-end performances and outdoor worship—to create an environment of love and dignity where every young person can be nurtured and built up.
Pakistan: The Gospel Continues to Advance
This month, despite the scorching heat and long journeys, we held multiple gatherings across remote areas of Punjab, reaching over a hundred people and ministering in various cities and villages. Through five sermons, the distribution of one hundred Gospel tracts, and one-on-one counseling for approximately twenty individuals, the Gospel was widely proclaimed.
We witness lives being touched:
A university student resolved long-standing questions about faith.
A young person made a commitment to follow the Lord and wants to dedicate their future to serving God.
Confidence Amidst Challenges
Despite our facing misunderstandings and opposition—and even attempts to prevent the ministry from entering villages—God continues to open the way and encourage faithful believers to keep meeting together. The church has been growing steadily, and plans are currently underway to expand the sanctuary to accommodate more people.
Bangladesh: A Father’s Love and Our Heavenly Father’s Heart.
A Letter From Alex and Ruth
Friends and Partners,
During our time in Bangladesh, our hearts have been continually touched by God’s tender and profound love. This was especially true on Father’s Day, when we gained a deeper understanding of the “heart of a father” and the love of our Heavenly Father. At the New Hope Home, we hosted a simple yet heartwarming Father’s Day event. Many of the children, having grown up without a father’s presence in their home, never truly experienced a sense of security or belonging there. We long to draw near to them and embrace them with a father’s heart, gradually filling voids in their lives through our companionship.
The children made cards by hand to wish the coworkers a “Happy Father’s Day.”
In that moment, we deeply sensed our Heavenly Father at work, personally comforting and healing every wounded heart.
Eight-year-old Mong Sing moved us deeply. He lost both parents at a young age, but recently he has been learning trust and love at New Hope Home. On Father’s Day, he made a card by hand. Then, shyly but clearly with determination, he courageously voiced his well-wishes. Those words of his were more than just a greeting; they were a sign that his life is being reawakened by love. All of this reminds us that our Heavenly
Father’s love is never absent. He mends what is broken, heals wounds, and rebuilds lives!
Thank you for your continued prayers and support! Because you walk alongside us, our children are enabled to stand firm in love. May we witness together the transformation of even more lives!
With gratitude and love, Alex & Ruth
❤️Looking to the Future
First, as we look back on what has happened during the past month, we are once again convinced that these were not just activities, but the stories of lives being written by God. Whether in Lebanon, Pakistan, or Bangladesh, God has been at work—transforming lives, restoring hope, and building up the next generation.
Looking forward, as we enter the new summer season, we see further opportunities to learn, grow, and serve. Let us continue, together, to be vessels in God’s hands!
