PT News for April 2026

FEED 5,000 – EVANGELISM CAMPAIGN IN AFRICA

1. A) EHC Angola:The nation faces severe social issues. Young people grapple with challenges in employment, education, and limited opportunities; pray that the government improves educational access. Domestic violence, including physical, psychological, and sexual abuse, is rampant. Many children are abandoned by their fathers, and victims (predominantly women) face the terror of financial instability. Pray for the Lord to strengthen the outreach ministries, raise passionate co-workers, and reach out to those oppressed by sin. Pray also for the necessary ministry funding.
2. B) EHC South Africa:The team is launching training for Easter outreach. Pray that the Lord removes timidity from the trainees and help them trust that the Holy Spirit will provide the right words and power to clearly share the Gospel with unbelievers. Pray for softened hearts among the public and the removal of all hindrances or persecution.
3. C) EHC Kenya:Reports have surfaced of Kenyans being lured into foreign armed conflicts, which is deeply saddening. May the Gospel spread through this branch to lead young people to the truth and free them from lies and manipulation. Please pray for persecuted believers and churches, that they may shine for the Lord in adversity and that their communities experience peace, healing, and truth.

CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS IN SINGAPORE (CCIS) MINISTRY PLANNING & CHALLENGES

The conflict in the Middle East has brought a new wave of instability that impacted the global economy and making the Gospel more urgent than ever. Rooted in the promise that the Lord "is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9), the committee is pressing forward with preparations for this year’s celebration. We are deeply grateful to the churches and brethren who have partnered with us over the past 23 years. Their offerings and performances have allowed us to proclaim the Good News of Jesus annually. We are currently planning a fundraising gala for September and praying for generous support from churches and members. Programming is also in development, and we hope for the same enthusiastic participation from local churches as last year. We also ask the Lord to raise up young volunteers to join the team and fulfill the Great Commission together.

PARENTS' DAY TRACTS: LEADING THE ELDERLY TO ETERNAL LIFE

As Singapore becomes a super-aged society, the government has put forth policies to support quality of life for seniors, but the spiritual needs of the elderly also must not be ignored. Among them are our parents, relatives, and lonely neighbours. We thank God for churches involved in senior ministries and hope more Christians will share God's love while the elderly are still of sound mind. With Mother’s Day and Father’s Day approaching, we especially encourage you to use our bilingual tracts to explain God’s love so they may find joy and abundance in their later years through Christ.

BREAKING NEW GROUND TO SAVE SOULS IN CREATIVE ACCESS REGIONS

EHC Country F: Due to tightened controls, the branch can no longer mail materials and must rely on hand-delivery or private vehicles. This increases risk and cost. Pray that the materials arrive safely and the Gospel continues to reach every home.

EHC Country J: The team is launching outreach in a self-governing city of 200,000 in the south. Pray for the removal of obstacles and for open doors so the team may spread the Gospel in peace.

EHC Country N: The branch was raided by secret police, and the director was detained under baseless charges, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Citizens here face the constant risk of arrest or "disappearance". Pray for God’s hand to sustain the director and comfort his family, for justice to prevail, and for the Gospel to spread freely.

VACANCY FOR DEPUTY DIRECTOR AT SEHC

Since 1972, Singapore Every Home Crusade (SEHC) has promoted literature evangelism through the publication of Christian books, tracts and other materials. We are now in our seventh round of OIKOS outreach, aiming to reach every generation, every resident, in every location. Our Director, Rev. K T Kao, has served tirelessly for 54 years, and we pray this vision will be passed to a capable successor. If you feel God’s call to literature ministry, whether as a pastor or a theologically trained brother and are around 40 years old, effectively bilingual (English/Chinese), and well-versed in managing fundraising and publishing projects and initiatives, we invite you to join us. Please contact us at 6744-7355. Your prayers for this search are appreciated.

“HAPPY EASTER” AND “IS THE RESURRECTION CREDIBLE?” COMBINED TRACT

The former tract is written by Elder Samuel Ching. It explains the relationship between Easter and us, that all who believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus are saved from the power of death, receive forgiveness of sins, undergo life transformation, and have the hope of eternal life. The latter tract is written by Rev. Hsueh Yu Kwong and proves the credibility of the resurrection through five key points, inviting all who are weary and burdened to believe in Him and receive the peace and joy He gives. 2 million copies of this combo tract will be printed in the Asia-Pacific region. May the Lord use them to lead many to Himself.

USE OF SEHC GOSPEL TRACTS BY CHURCHES AND BRETHREN THIS FEBRUARY

Singapore is densely populated - beyond locals, the number of migrant workers and domestic helpers is increasing, and these are "fields ripe for harvest." We thank God for retired pastors who have answered the call to distribute tracts, and for churches that remain faithful in outreach. One church sent 15 people every Tuesday for several years to HDB estates in the Northeast to sow seeds, leading to an increase in their congregation. It is also heartening to see Indian migrant workers purchasing bilingual tracts to distribute to locals, fulfilling their responsibility to preach the Gospel (1 Cor. 9:16-18). Pray for more believers to participate in distributing our tracts to save souls for the kingdom of the Lord and honour His name.

“KNOWING THE INCOMPARABLE CHRIST” AND “THE CHRISTIAN LIFE - DEEPENING YOUR BIBLE KNOWLEDGE”

The former book is written by Rev. Dr. Peter Wongso. It contains 188 topics suitable for personal Bible study or church small group sessions. Topics include daily Christian living, the value of past experiences, and greetings and blessings. The latter book is written by Rev. Yap Un Han and is a compilation of his systematic sermons delivered in various churches. Focusing on the Christian life, the book presents six major themes in sermon format, each deeply relevant to situations that Christians face. Topics include the empty life, the blessed life, and the life of praise. We welcome your purchase for personal reading or as gifts, both of which benefit spiritual growth.

“GOSPEL MESSAGE” AND “HEART-TO-HEART TALK” - THE GOSPEL AND THE HUMAN HEART

The former book is written by Rev. Guo Chaobin. It describes the Gospel as the Good News and tidings of great joy and the ultimate necessity that humanity needs and should embrace. The Gospel resolves the eternal destination of the soul and leads one toward truth and goodness. This book contains 18 chapters covering topics such as Jesus as our Friend, the necessity of faith, and the Bible and life. The latter volume is written by Dr. James Yu. It discusses the classical usage of the word "heart," noting that laws, rituals, and many seemingly rational approaches often fail to improve the human heart. Only the Bible provides clear revelation and an effective prescription for the heart, which, through the work of the Holy Spirit, transforms the world into a better place for humanity. These two books are suitable for new believers. May the Lord use them.

“SIMPLIFIED CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY” AND “THE WAY TO A VICTORIOUS LIFE” - UNDERSTANDING THE BIBLE BETTER

The former book is written by Dr. James Yu and provides a brief overview of theology. The author aims to explain fundamental Christian beliefs in simple language so that people may know God, glorify Him, and enjoy Him. Topics include salvation and rebirth, the way to the Father, and the church as the household of God. The latter book is an advanced course written by Rev. Dr. Johnny Lee and which is a continuation of the “The Way to a Happy Life” Bible correspondence course. It consists of four lessons: 1) After Becoming a Christian; 2) What is the Church; 3) What is Faith; and 4) The Path to Victory. These books are suitable for new believers and are planned for reprinting in the Asia-Pacific region. May the Lord use them to bless many.

“GOSPEL EXPRESS” AND “GOOD NEWS FOR YOU” - GOOD NEWS IN LIFE

These two booklets are excellent personal evangelism tools featuring both illustrations and text. The former tells of how God is love, viewing everyone with a fatherly heart, making His sun rise on the evil and the good and sending rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. Those bound by worldly affairs do not know God; instead, their hearts are blinded by sin, and they remain in pain without realizing it. Only by trusting in Jesus can one be delivered from Satan’s control and find joy and peace. The latter booklet concisely presents the Gospel message and is suitable for all ages. It has been widely used by believers since publication as a premier tool for sharing the faith. 30,000 copies of each will be printed in the Asia-Pacific region. Pray for the Lord to use them. 

LOCAL OIKOS MINISTRY UPDATES 

Jesus said: "I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of My hand." (John 10:28-29). Thank God for His wonderful guidance! Through the beautiful footsteps of OIKOS volunteers, He is bringing those who belong to Him back to His side.

1) Philos Assembly of God (Rev. Yeo Pin Pin): Today, I saw an Indian man at the void deck of an HDB block but as he was sleeping, I didn't approach him. After walking a big round around the estate, I saw him sitting up and looking at his phone when I returned, so I went over, handed him a Gospel tract, and started a conversation. He said he came to Singapore at the age of 15 and has been here for 30 years. A Christian once brought him to church and told him to pray to Jesus often in his daily life. He once asked Jesus to help him win the lottery, and he actually won. When his wife was pregnant, he asked Jesus for a daughter, and it really was a daughter. I shared the Gospel with him in detail and told him that God is our provider who knows our needs, so he should stop buying lottery tickets or praying to win. I also told him that a person must be born again through the Holy Spirit and asked if he was willing to accept the Lord Jesus as his Saviour. He said he was willing and joined me in a prayer of dedication. He said happily that after working in Singapore for 30 years, he thanked Jesus for sending me to share the Gospel in detail so he could know the Saviour. His name is Arivu; please pray for his spiritual growth.

During the Chinese New Year, I visited Mdm. Tan, a new believer, and she was very happy to see me. I wished her a Happy New Year and brought her some oranges and coconut bread. I taught her the Lord’s Prayer and how to pray. She talked with me a lot, mentioning that during CNY, none of her family members came to visit, and she thanked me for coming. I asked her if anything had changed since believing in the Lord. She said she is now happier and more at peace. I prayed for her and asked the Lord that she may find peace in her room and in her heart, feel God's presence, and may God watch over her day and night. Amen!

2) Bro. Allan Kon: Branden and Melissa are two teenage students who heard about Jesus from a friend. Out of curiosity, they searched for more stories about Jesus Christ on YouTube. Although their parents are followers of another religion, they confessed their sins and accepted Jesus Christ as their Saviour. We thank God for His power and wonder in choosing them at such a young age. Those He foreknew, He finds and brings back at His appointed time. Not one whom He has chosen shall be lost. Unfortunately, their domestic helper forbade us from mailing follow-up courses to them. May God personally lead their spiritual growth. Amen!
