Short-term Missions Trip
Out of the Comfort Zone Asia 2012 - LAOS 3weeks (Malaysia)
East Asia has a population of 2 billion people - and most of them have never heard of Jesus Christ. Of those who have heard His name, most of them do not know that He is the only way for them to know God and receive eternal life. Over 95% of them make no claim whatever to believe in Him or follow Him. These 2 billion comprise the world's largest concentration of unreached people - those who desperately need to hear that God loves them and Christ died for them.
Out of the Comfort Zone Asia 2012 is a short-term mission exposure program that gives you the opportunity to experience first-hand reaching lives with the good news in East Asia. You will attend the OCZ012 Asia conference held in Malaysia in July and step out on a 10-day road trip to Laos. Please see the country spiritual climate at
