Is Missions your passion?
For many of us missions is a passion. If missions is your passion, or, if you're wanting to learn, contact Pastor Chris and let him know. He loves everything about missions and would love to help you.

Mongolia Pastor's Conference
Pastor Chris will be returning to Mongolia August 3-14, 2009. He's been invited by Pastor Hetee and Melanie in Darkhan to come and minister to all the pastors in Darkhan. This is a rare opportunity to touch an entire city and help the local pastors deal with growing churches and the trials of human nature.
Pastor will also be ministering in UB (Ulan Batar), the capital, will be visting his good friend, Tom Terry, director of Eagle TV, and may be traveling to Bayanhongor to visit Dustin and Mary Baker.
Your donations make these trips possible. Please click here to help pay for travel expenses, hall rentals, vitamins, baby clothes, and many other items that the team brings to Mongolia. Thank you!

First ever Mongolian Missions Conference!
In July Ron Boehme, Pastor Chris and a team from around the county return to Mongolia to help train 2000 teenagers in Mongolia's first nationwide missions conference. If you've ever thought about extending your love overseas it only takes $25.00 to sponsor a Mongolian teenger for the entire conference. To sponsor a Mongolian teen (or two or three!) please click here. Christians in Mongolia have a burning desire to share the Gospel in every nation that Genghis Khan conquered more than 800 years ago! Please help them do this by sponsoring as many teens as you can! Click here now to be a part of history.

Baguio, Philippines
Pastor Chris has returned from the Philippines and you can read his Philippines blog here. He was in Baguio leading a crusade, teaching local pastors about ministering in the power of the Spirit, being interviewed on a local television program and preaching in local churches.
Thank you for praying for Pastor Chris for strength, health, traveling mercies and increased anointing for all the things he was asked to do.
Please consider donating towards his future trips. Pastor always loves to bless the ministries he works with, especially the orphans.

Mongolia Women’s Conference - April 15-27, 2007
For a complete update on the women's conference please click here.
During my first trip to Mongolia I was became aware of the difficulties and abuse that Mongolian women (of all ages) face each day. Most of the abuse issues were not obvious; it was while praying for them individually that the Holy Spirit gave me discernment. I also became aware of the huge lack on information and medical care for pregnant women. I promised at that time (two years and three trips ago) that I would bring a team of loving, mature women to minister to them. Now, it's finally coming together. I cannot express how excited they are.
Sue Davidson (Manchester, England), Katya Petersen (Vancouver, WA) and Barb Jacobs (Tacoma, WA) will be our guest speakers. Sue has pastored with her husband for over twenty years and has hosted women’s conferences in Africa for years. Katya was born in Turkey and has worked in Turkey, Russia, China, Philippines, and Thailand. Her specialty is post-abortion trauma. Barb is a gifted wife of a pastor and works with abused women.
Please help us in prayer and financial help to make this conference a wonderful success.
Team participation for this conference is limited. If you would like information going being on our team, please email me.
Stay updated on this conference here.

I am returning to Mongolia in September, 2006. I will be gone from September 9 - 22. While in Mongolia I will be staying at the home of a friend in Ulaan Baator. I will also be ministering in Darkhan. You can follow my adventures here.
Please continue to pray for these trips. There are wonderful and difficult times in Mongolia and God is continually blessing the Mongolian people. If you’d like to help me bless them even more please click here to donate. I always bring gifts, things they can really use, and I love to give to the orphanage in Darkhan. Anything you give will go a long way in Mongolia.

My trip to LA was very fruitful. I spent Tuesday with Foursquare Missions Press and Wednesday at Foursquare Missions. Everywhere I go I am amazed at the universal interest in Mongolia. All the literature projects are moving forward. Please continue to pray.
....................................................................................................
11/26/05
Next Tuesday (Nov. 29) I fly to Los Angeles to begin working with Foursquare Missions Press to produce Christian materials in Mongolian. (Foursquare has no materials in Mongolian.) We will be working with Eagle TV in Ulaan Baator and the AMONG Foundation in South Dakota to design and produce numerous pieces from Bible Studies to children’s Bible coloring books and tracts. I will also be working with JCS in Ulan Bator to produce English magazines. Please pray that this work goes smoothly and efficiently and brings many souls to Christ.

In just a few days I will be leaving for Mongolia. I will be gone from October 14-28, 2005. It looks like I will be spending a week in UB and a week in Darkhan. I’ve already heard from both cities that they will be keeping me busy so please pray for my strength!
Please consider donating to this trip. I still need funds for vitamins and other things they’ve requested. Please click here and give generously. Thank you.
I will be writing each day in my blog. Please make a point to read it each day and see what God is doing in Mongolia.

It appears that plans to take four women to Mongolia won’t happen until next spring. I will be going, however, the last two weeks of October to do leadership training and ministry. Please help send me by praying and giving generously. The trip will cost around $2500.00. Any extra funds will go to provide whatever Pastor Bat’s church needs while I’m there. You may donate online or send a check marked “Mongolia” to the address on the right. Thank you!

Due to the great needs we saw in Mongolia I’m attempting to put a small team together to go this summer and minister, especially to the women. We need funds for prenatal vitamins and other supplements, feminine products, etc. We especially need women to help with pregnancy care and education. If you are in good physical condition, can travel and sleep in trying conditions, please consider going. I am working out the details so please pray and consider going to love your brothers and sisters in Mongolia.

We have all returned from Mongolia healthy, tired and by now I think we’ve all adjusted to the time change (they are 16 hours ahead).
Watch this page for links and info. We have eight hours of video and hundreds of pictures to process. When it’s ready the links will be listed here.
Thanks to all who gave and prayed. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit will have lasting impact and the music studio will touch the entire nation with anointed worship music.

Blessings to you in Jesus!
I've been invited by Mike Proctor (see below) to help him install the first Christian music studio in Mongolia. The primary purpose of the studio will be to record and distribute Christian music, but it will also be available to local musicians to produce indigenous music. Funds generated by the studio will be used to extend the kingdom of God in Mongolia.
If you know anything about Mongolia, this is a BIG thing. Just a few years ago something like this could not happen. The vision for this studio has been percolating for a long time and the window of opportunity is open. Now is the time to make it happen.
My job will be simple: Do whatever it takes to help install the studio and get it running before we have to leave. We will be there from March 9-22, 2005. That's not a lot of time so we ask that you pray that we get the job done.
My expenses are $2500.00 and I have $1000.00 so far. This is one of those times when your donation of even $20.00 would make a big difference. I would be blessed to receive whatever you can give to help these people.
Please help send me to the Mongolian church. The ripple effects of this studio will be powerful. The local pastor we're working with is a dear man of God with an enourmous heart for his people. Please help me to help him.
If you would like to give towards this project, please write your check to “Church on The Rock” and notate “Mongolia” in the memo section.

Thank you in Jesus name!
