Praise the Lord!!! The Biao Church is growing and now has around 32 members. The majority of those attending are children, the future of the Biao community. God is good. A seed was planted and we now see evidence of growth. Please continue to pray that the membership grows and finances are available to purchase land and build a church. Currently services are being held in an old Nazarene church.
