Mongolia
Sandwiched between Russia and China...a nation of herders and nomads...a fledgling democracy opening up after decades of Soviet rule. Welcome to Mongolia!
Radstock's presence in Mongolia arose out of a mission partnership - called 'Streams in the Desert' - in which St Mary's Church Old Harlow (UK) and churches in Udmurtia, Russia came alongside churches affiliated to the Bible League in Mongolia. This mission movement is seeding new churches in many parts of the country, including the Gobi Desert.
In the first year of ‘Streams in the Desert' scores of people came to faith across the Gobi Desert and traditional crafts from Mongol churches reached a UK market.
It provided funds for:
- seven gers (desert tents) for use as homes for Mongol church planters and meeting places for churches
- one fixed building for similar use
- Bible distribution for church planters
Month after month, news comes in of fresh churches planted - with significant domestic and international potential for the gospel. Read our blog for the latest updates.
At the same time, they are holding their hands out to other churches to partner with them in this exciting and challenging work.
In a recent development, a UK team provided small-business training to enable Gobi Desert church plants to become self-sustaining. Read more about church planters in business here.
