This is such a wonderful and encouraging testimony to hear how God is moving in a formerly atheist country, in Mongolia. Good news from God’s Kingdom is so refreshing!

We’re glad it touched you, Margaret, Praise the Lord!
This is so exciting.when I was in China in2007, I had 2 friends go into Mongolia to help bring children down from the mountains for heart surgery. Praise God for His continued blessing in this land. Iris May

Thank you, Iris.
Excellent video expressing what is happening in Jesus’s church in Mongolia and the work that FEBC is doing to minister to the believers there. I also recently heard an interview Bob Bowman did with KHCB Christian radio station here in the U.S., where he talked about FEBC’s work and mission. This reinforces my desire and conviction to continue donating to FEBC every month. It’s important that people know that their donations really are being used properly and wisely to get the truth of Jesus to everyone that will hear.

We appreciate that feedback, Rick. Thank you for your continued support!
I loved hearing Bat talk about his testimony and how he came to know Jesus. We pray for Mongolia and for God to bring more people to salvation through FEBC!

Thanks Alynne.
As a geography teacher at a Christian university, I’d like to access recordings of these songs to play for my students. Is there a place where that can happen?

Dear FEBC Brothers and Sisters,
How wonderful and beautiful the Mongolian worship I heard in your video is to my heart!
I pray that my Mongolian brothers and sisters will be inspired by the Holy Spirit to be creative and write more worship songs to Bless the Lord! It would be nice have a collection of Mongolian worship songs to listen to. God Bless you all at FEBC.
