Chairman’s greetings
“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.” (Isa. 60:1)
Greetings in the name of Jesus our Lord!
I hope that all participants in this conference will be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit to transform their churches, their countries and the whole world.
We all know that great advances in human history came from a few courageous, creative, and hard-working leaders. Church history is no exception to that. The body of Christ has grown stronger and more faithful to its Lord when Spirit-filled leaders dedicated everything they have to the expansion of the Kingdom of God.
Now the leadership of world Christianity is practically upon the shoulders of Asian church leaders as Asia is inspiring the other parts of the world where churches are sagging from spiritual torpor. All leaders of Asian churches should realize that God gives great visions for Asian churches to achieve not only for Asian churches but also churches in the world. We believe that the Holy Spirit will enable Asian leaders to accomplish this God-given mission as far as they cooperate with the Spirit. So we want to encourage each other as we face this great challenge as well as hope. I pray all participants share how the Holy Spirit is leading their ministries. In doing so, I expect all of us to find something more about the work of the Spirit in the world.
I bless and love all of brothers and sisters who serve the Lord in Asia. I believe God will use us to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ and strengthen us with the power of the Holy Spirit to shine Christ’s light in the world.
WELCOMING ADDRESS

“Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
[Matthew 28:18-20]
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!
It is my deep privilege and honor to welcome each of you to the Asia Leaders Summit 2024 Hyderabad. I pray that everyone who participates in this gathering will be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit to transform their churches, their countries, Asia, and the whole world.
Every year, we gather as Asian Church Leaders to pray and discuss the subject of “Asia Mission by Asians”. This year, we are focusing on the theme of “Key Shifts in Asian Churches for the Endemic Era”. As God opens the doors and the restrictions for gatherings and travel are lifted, we anticipate a mighty move of the Holy Spirit to bring revival in Asia and beyond.
I am so honored to have the privilege of working together with all of you for mission in Asia. The growth of Christianity in Asia is remarkable. Churches in Asia are rapidly growing and becoming leaders playing an essential role in the global church. As we share our experiences, I pray that God will increase our impact to bring revival all across Asia and the world.
God bless you.
