From New Tribes Mission:

We are planning our second youth/young adult camp for 1-4 of June. Our past one went fantastic and we are looking forward to this one being even better. We hope you or young people you know will be able to attend this exciting and challenging camp. The camp will have two tracks running simultaneously. One will be catered for youth, ages approximately 13-16 and the second for young adults aged approximately 17-26.

Brad Buser and Darryl Palmer, missionaries with New Tribes Mission will be our featured speakers again. Missionaries from other organizations will be assisting with various modules and the camp programme. Brad, along with his wife Beth, and their four children, served with New Tribes Mission in Papua New Guinea reaching the Iteri people (1979-1999). They are now living in San Diego, California where Brad serves as mission pastor in his home church. Brad also teaches “Cross-Cultural Church Planting” modules at The Master College, at Eternity Bible College, the book of Acts at Ecola Bible Institute, Perspective courses all over the US, as well as serving as an National Representative for New Tribes Mission.

Brad has been involved in conducting 3 youth camps in Germany, speaks at youth conferences every year in Mexico, and takes numerous speaking opportunities at Christian colleges in the US: Biola University, Heritage College, Westmont University, Azusa Pacific University, Liberty University, Ecola Bible College, Masters College and others. Obviously, Brad communicates and relates well with youth.

Darryl Palmer was on staff at New Tribes Mission’s mission training centre in Camdenton, Missouri for about 5 years, teaching phonetics, culture and language acquisition before he and his wife went to Indonesia to serve in reaching the Taliabo People. Darryl and Kyla are featured missionaries in the award-winning videos, “The Taliabo Story” and “Delivered From The Power Of Darkness.”

Any young people attending this camp will leave with a new perspective on missions and with a challenge to be a part of what God is doing to complete the Great Commission in their lifetime.

We will be needing help so, please let us know if you would like to assist us with some or our continued planning for this camp and or assisting with the operations of the camp. Please pass this on to youth, young adult and mission leaders in your church or organization. If you would like more information regarding the camp, return an email or give us a call.

Book Review: Tortured For Christ, by Richard Wurmbrand

By Beth Tang

We Christians in Singapore take our religious freedom for granted and try to ‘sugarcoat’ Christianity with egos of thanking God that we are safe from troubles and objections in our minds, not knowing what lies beyond the comfort we have received from Our Creator.

Richard Wrumbrand (1909-2001) was imprisoned in Romania grip of communism, just because he stood up for Christ during one of the communist relays with a Bible in his hand.

It began with his wife Sabrina telling him to ‘wipe the shame from the face of Christ’ which led his family to unspeakable torture like freezing in a box with little clothing (so much that he became fearful of opening his own fridge!), and being poked by sharp objects. Despite the brainwashing, assaults and having been denied from ever seeing God’s creation that is nature, he still trusted God and learnt more about Him each day. He never doubted God for what he was going through. He not only mentions his ordeal but also talks about other Christians who suffered in persecuted countries like Iran, China and North Korea. This book is the a glimpse of what it is like living as a Christian in a persecuted country.

It is also a great insight on missions, for example Richard made his son Mihai and the other children roam around streets distributing ‘illegal’ bibles and Gospels. In turn the soldiers treated them nicely and gave them sweets or chocolate (Richard mention Russians have a soft spot on children).

It’s a good wake up call for Christians in free countries and those who wanted to go to the mission field. It will make you read this again and again. It’s a good book to see what a persecuted church is like.


‘Will you hear our message? Remember us. Help us. Don’t abandon us.’
-- Richard Wrumbrand ‘s message to the Christians in free world


“You're blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The persecution drives you even deeper into God's kingdom.” -- Matthew 5:10 (The Message)
