Mongolia: 123 New House Churches and Growing Faith

As the fall ministry season began, we received exciting news from our national campaign director, Boloroo: more than 100 new house churches have been established across Mongolia's mountains, plains, and valleys as a result of the campaign!

With your generous support and intercessory prayers for the Power To Change campaign in Mongolia, the message of Jesus shared through television broadcasts and public events continues to take root and bear fruit in new churches and small groups.

Twenty young evangelists from the "Power To Change" campaign supported by GCMM, have planted over a hundred house churches and 1,248 small groups in approximately 20 counties across the country (2025–2026).

We are deeply encouraged by this news, as are many of GCMM's friends. The campaign message has not remained confined to television screens or the stages of large public events. As a result, local communities have formed where people can grow in their faith and find fellowship with other Christians.

This is precisely why the ministry of the young evangelists is so important. Those who have heard the message and accepted Jesus into their lives need other believers to walk alongside them. House churches and small groups provide a place for praying together, studying the Bible, and exploring questions of faith. The Power To Change is not just about one life-changing moment, but also about the journey that begins from that moment.

Vibrant Celebrations Across Mongolia

During the campaign, exceptionally inspiring public events were held in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia's capital city and in provincial capitals across the country. The Gospel was shared openly, giving people the opportunity to hear the message of new life in Jesus.

Programs Reach Hundreds of Thousands of Viewers

Television was the most effective medium for reaching people during the campaign. Programs featuring Mongolians who had come to faith shared how their lives had changed. Their stories highlighted how coming to faith in Jesus marked a turning point and the beginning of a transformed life.

Through personal testimonies, the Gospel becomes relevant to everyday life. It is not simply about what Christians believe, but about what encountering Jesus has meant in the life of the person sharing their story. Witnessing the transformation in someone else's life can stir an important question in the viewer's heart:

Could my life change too?

Mongolia has a population of approximately 3.6 million people, more than one million of whom live in Ulaanbaatar. The broad reach of television and the local ministry carried out in different provinces complement one another: media brings the message to large audiences, while evangelists continue the work through personal outreach.

Electronic media and literature are central tools in GCMM's mission to bring the Gospel to the nations of the world. Both have been used in the Mongolia evangelism campaign toward the same goal: to give people the opportunity to hear about Jesus.

Sixty Children Heard About Jesus for the First Time

The campaign also opened the door to meaningful ministry among children. During the summer of 2025, a church in Ulaanbaatar hosted its very first five-day children's summer camp, welcoming 60 children who had the opportunity to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ for the first time!

Young people make up a significant portion of Mongolia's population. The largest age group are the 15–19-year-olds. In 2009, approximately 40 percent of the population was under the age of 19. Reaching the next generation is an important part of the Great Commission.

Plans are underway for additional summer camps in western Uvs Province and northern Khentii Province. The hope is that more and more children will have the opportunity to hear about Jesus and His love.

Prison Walls Could Not Stop the Good News

Prisoners in Mongolia are among the country's most forgotten and isolated people. Yet during the campaign, hundreds of those serving sentences behind prison walls had the opportunity to hear the life-changing message of forgiveness, new beginnings, and freedom found in Jesus Christ.

Within prison walls, the message of freedom takes on a special meaning. The freedom promised through the Gospel does not mean the end of a prison sentence or freedom from responsibility. Rather, it is the message that a person can receive forgiveness for their sins and begin a new life with Jesus, even behind prison walls.

The response was deeply moving. After the gatherings held in the prisons, each prisoner had their own copy of the Mongolian-language Power To Change book to keep. They could return to its message, read stories of transformed lives in their own language, and reflect on what following Jesus could mean in their own lives. Nearly every prisoner expressed a desire to welcome Jesus into their lives.

Hundreds of inmates, the most forgotten and isolated people, were reached within Mongolia's prison walls with the Good News of Jesus Christ, with a message of hope, forgiveness, and freedom.

Together, We Carry the Mission Forward

The wonderful news from Mongolia encourages us to press forward with ministry. The establishment of new house churches and small groups demonstrates the importance of combining the far-reaching impact of media ministry with the personal outreach of local evangelists. Both are essential—not only giving people the opportunity to hear the Gospel but also ensuring they have fellow believers to walk alongside them as they grow in their faith.

The work in Mongolia continues, even as preparations are underway for new evangelistic campaigns in Ethiopia and Moldova. Ministry efforts are also moving forward in Israel and Ukraine, where books offering hope and healing from trauma will be distributed to people suffering from the devastating effects of war.

In Israel, an estimated three million people are struggling with war-related trauma, while millions more in Ukraine face the emotional and psychological wounds of ongoing conflict.

On behalf of our entire GCMM team, we extend our heartfelt thanks for your faithful support. Your partnership has helped make this work possible, and we are deeply grateful for your continued prayers and generosity.
