From our friends at Christian Post come another report on the plight of Christians in Indonesia- the largest Muslim country in the world: Around 300 Muslim protesters and 300 police officers surrounded members of the Batak Christian Protestant Church (Huria Kristen Batak Protestan or HKBP) on Sunday as they worshiped in an open field in Ciketing, Bekasi, local sources said. Read more here.

From Mission Network News: India has suffered a great deal at the hands of heavy rains recently. Flooding in Ambala City in Haryana as well as in Punjab has caused two Compassion International child development centers severe damage. Read the full article for more info.

Compassion International is a key partner in the 1040 movement. Please keep the organization and their workers in your prayers.

Christian evangelist Luis Palau has been invited by over 500 church leaders from across Vietnam, as well as US diplomat and government officials, to lead the first foreign mission to the country since the fall of Saigon in 1975. “If the mission is approved”, according a report in Christian Today, “it will take place at a strategic time for Christianity in Vietnam, where the government has only recently given permission for Christian events to take place.” In December, 50,000 people came to an outreach outside of Ho Chi Minh City despite the event having received approval only 48 hours prior; an estimated 8,000 people received Christ. This is a significant time for Christianity in the history of Vietnam. Let’s pray that permission will be granted for Palau’s mission, that the Good News of Jesus Christ will be preached openly in Vietnam!

An Over-Capacity Crowd of 1,300 Packed Our Screening at New Song Irvine

Jaeson Ma Rocking the House!

After our incredible World Premiere at the Directors Guild of America on March 12th, we officially kicked off our 1040 tour last week with a screening and concert at  New Song Irvine on March 20th. On that remarkable day, an over-capacity crowd of 1,300 people came to see the film. With that, they became part of the growing movement of God that is sweeping the nations. The spirit moved mightily across the room, with people cheering and weeping over the film. Jaeson Ma and the Nehemiah Band rocked the house with incredible performances following the screening, and at the end, the audience responded overwhelmingly with desire to serve in Asia. It’s clear that this incredible movement is growing rapidly to the point of being unstoppable. Our generation is rising up like never before. We humbly ask for your support and prayer as we keep the momentum going and build this movement. Join us at this exciting juncture in history!

The 1040 team was moved by the following blog post on the New Song screening that day. Check out this brother’s wonderful reflection:
