Stephen Tong Gospel Rallies in Indonesia, Singapore Conclude in Grace

By Joshua Cheng

2010 Stephen Tong Evangelistic Ministry International just concluded their gospel rallies in Indonesia and Singapore.

The world-renown Chinese-Indonesian evangelist Dr. Stephen Tong held an outdoor gospel rally in Jayapura, Indonesia, from November 5-9. During the preaching sessions, there was a heavy rainfall, but it did not stop Tong from preaching the good news, nor did it diminish the listener’s passion for God’s word. The event attracted people from different age groups and social statuses. Many came to believe in Jesus Christ.

Tong’s next stop was in Singapore, where he preached at an indoor gymnasium from November 17-21. With the theme of “Power of Faith”, the event kicked off with large-scale choir devotion, children choir, and Tong’s sermon, which touched the hearts of many. Through the Holy Spirit, many people became believers of Jesus Christ.

With Christmas just around the corner, STEMI will continue on to Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and other major Asian cities for Christmas gospel rallies with the theme of “The Holy Baby of Bethlehem”.

Earlier this year, Tong has traveled to Australia and preached at Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, and Adelaide, and to San Francisco and New York in the United States. Moreover, he went to Hong Kong to deliver lectures on “Marriage and Family”, building up the Chinese Christians there.
