Welcome to CTK Missions Month 2024!
Every spring we focus our attention and generosity toward the mission God is accomplishing through our global partners around the world. The ministries we partner with all have one thing in common - they each began with a single person who said YES to God. And now we extend that opportunity to you.
Scroll through for opportunities for you to say yes to God. Yes to his command to care for widows and orphans. Yes to his call to foster peace between nations. Yes to his great commission to share the good news of Jesus to the ends of the earth.
Our giving goal for Missions Month 2024 is $136,000 which will fund all the projects described. Whether youāre able to give a little or give a lot, the power of Godās family is realized when each of us finds a way to say yes to Godās call.
You can give online anytime at give.ctk.church. Select 2024 Missions Month Projects field.
On behalf of our Global Partners and the people they serve, thank you in advance for your āabove-and beyondā generosity!
Please note: the dollar amounts shown for each project are included to inform and inspire your giving. All giving will be combined into a single fund to be distributed toward these projects at the sole discretion of the CTK Missions Committee. Funds given in excess of $136,000 will be directed toward other missions projects.
Meet Laya Sirikul, our CTK Global Partner, overflowing with Gods love and joy!
CTK has partnered for many years with Laya and her late husband Enoch, who was instrumental in uniting Christians in Thailand. After Enoch passed away, Laya has faithfully completed remaining projects that were near to their hearts, and is now embarking on her own ministry, to assist and encourage Pastorās and leaders in small communities.
Pray for Laya as she transitions from Bangkok to Northern Thailand and begins serving in new ways.
What happens when a Thai motorcycle mechanic and his wife meet Jesus? A ministry of reaching their rural community with the good news begins. A āGod sizedā dream to reach 1000 villages and birth 10,000 believers by 2020 is placed on their hearts.
What happens when you add a ādata guyā with Thai/US citizenship? Strategy and funding to meet and track the āGod sizedā dream is introduced.
What happens when you add the power of Jesus? Lives are changed, miracles are experienced, and new believers share with their neighbors what Jesus has done for them. Multiplication begins, exponential growth occurs, leaders emerge, believers are discipled and the āGod sizedā dream of Pastor Somsak and his wife Rajiroat is realized and surpassed!
Do you know Jesus?ā The villager replied, āNo, he doesnāt live here. Perhaps he lives in the next village?ā
One of our CTK Partners told this true story about a remote village and said, āWe smile at this, but -sadly- this is the reality in so many places! Jesus is simply not known; he doesnāt live in their villages, nor in their hearts. And so, we have a job to do. As Christians, we are to be about making him known in those places where he is not known.ā
In 2024, letās commit to praying for those who have not yet heard the Good News and for those who are doing the hard, and often dangerous work of reaching these people with Godās love!
Lily Among Thorns- single young mothers coming together to support, encourage and learn. Beatrice Omolo leads these moms in the Kibera slum, teaching them they are valuable, daughters of the Most High King! The 6 month course includes learning trades to support their family, including jewelry making, cooking lessons and more. A beautiful way to reach these young women and give them hope for their future!
Familiar Faces - So good to see Guy and Sondra In person! The Sottileās, our Global Partners leading Italy for Christ, blessed us with a visit to Bellingham.
Thank you Guy and Sondra for sharing your 40+ years of continuing vision for ministering to all of Italian society, from refugees to the Senate.
Iran, Syria, N Korea, China, not on most peopleās bucket travel list. Jesusā Church faces intense persecution around the world, but also an amazing presence of the Holy Spirit! The CTK Missions Team was blessed to hear inspiring stories of Godās faithfulness to persecuted Christians from Giovanni and Sacha, visiting from Italy and Switzerland. They serve with a non profit focused on assisting the persecuted church. Thank you to Italy for Christ, our Global Partners, for the connection!
YWAM: Kviv, Ukraine. āThe war may have changed some of our methods, but our vision is still the same. We devote ourselves to preaching the gospel, cultivating empowered and mission-minded Christ followers, and renewing the lives of the broken.ā
If you have a heart to serve at a YWAM base, visit missionbuilders.org. Locations in the US and around the world are waiting for you!
A child has a safe place to play, Ukrainian refugees a home, community is created around a garden, kids are taught about Jesus at fun summer events, The Chosen is shown to the community, food is distributed to the hungryā¦.because you faithfully gave a few years ago, CTK was able to help rebuild the Catania Community Center!
And for nature lovers: Mt. Etna, Europeās most active volcano, looms over the city.
Love in Action! Francesco and team serve Catania through food distribution: door to door, in city squares and at a warehouse. Of course feeding people is important, but the ultimate goal is to build relationships and share the love of Jesus!
Catania, Sicily: LIFE LESSON
Donāt be so focused on avoiding all the dog p**p on the sidewalk that you walk right into a tree branch š¤£
So blessed to share life with the Sottileās! From a day out in their neighborhood, amazing and sometimes scaryš³ food (all delicious!!), sweet Birthday treats and ministry highlights. Thank you Sottileās for your goodness to us and your vision for Italy for Christ!

Pray for Turkey: Our ministry partners at Samaritanās Purse are deploying a 52 bed hospital with two emergency operating rooms to Turkey in the aftermath of a devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake. They specifically are requesting prayer for the people of Turkey, their leadership, and the many teams from various ministries responding to this need.

We spent a fun morning at Oasis preschool! They even let Tracy teach a little lesson about berriesš
In a small country with many diverse groups (Mestizo, Mayan, Creole, Mennonite, Hispanic, Garifuna, Chinese and others), Oasis brings kids from all backgrounds together to encourage integration at a young age, teach about Jesus and give kids a head start for school, where they will learn in English, a second language for many.
This free preschool is run by a friend of our CTK Partners, called Oasis Ministries.
For more info on their work in Belize, visit oasisministrybelize.com.
Local market in Belize. Full of unique objects made by local artisans and yummy fruits and veggies! šššš„š„„š¶ļøš«
Why are we sharing photos of flowers? Our Global Partners in Belize believe God wants them to open the first Restoration Home for children in the country. These beautiful flowers grow at the amazing property where a refuge of peace and safety can be provided. Please pray for the remaining funds needed to make this dream a reality.

CTK Global Partners in Thailand are part of an incredible movement to Jesus!
During the Christmas season, working with local house church leaders, hundreds of villages were reached with the story of Jesusā birth. The house church movement offers opportunity to evangelize, but also disciple new believers, which has led to amazing growth in the Thai church!

Merry Christmas, Mele Kalikimaka, Kiristumus Valttukkal, Buon Natale, Sukhsant wan khristmas, Feliz Navidad, Krismasi njema
It may sound different to each of our CTK Global Partners, and the traditions that go along with it may vary, but the heart is the sameā¦a Christmas that is Merry, because we celebrate the birth of our Savior!
May your Christmas truly be Merry and filled with joy, peace, hope and love!
Country focus: India
~Indiaās population of over 1.3 billion is more than North and South America combined, and the same as all of Africa and the Middle East combined
~Only 3% of the population is Christian
~30% of the worldās remaining unreached people groups live in India
~India has 40% of the worldās poor
How do we respond to these overwhelming numbers? We take the first bite of the elephantā¦
CTK partners with indigenous missionaries in India, who share the Gospel with those who have rarely, if ever, heard it before. Through personal interaction and witness, the Gospel is being shared and people are coming to know Jesus! The cost is great, persecution in India is growing and our Partners safety is not guaranteed.
Pray for protection for our CTK Partners as they share the love of Jesus, pray for encouragement as they do the hard work and pray that their ministries bear much fruit!
(Details are withheld for the safety of our Partners, āstockā photos used, but donāt worry, God knows exactly who you are praying for š)
