The work of OM in Hong Kong is two-fold: It is a home office sending out recruits from Hong Kong churches to many OM fields, and we also have an outreach ministry to ethnic minorities coming into Hong Kong from South Asia.
There are over 300,000 people from minority races in Hong Kong, the equivalent to the number of Christians in the city. People have come to work as a result of globalization and economic development. However, taking root and residency in this predominantly Chinese community is challenging.
The outreach team aims to offer them not only warmth, but to take that one step further, leading them to the love of Christ. The team works in cooperation with several local churches and schools, combining proclamation and social service. Activities include visitation, Chinese instruction, adaptation courses, counselling etc. The team is on one hand serving the great needs among the minority races, and on the other hand mobilizing local believers and churches to take part in the cross-cultural mission at our doorstep.
Thank You, Lord, for Hong Kong, rich in culture and ethnicity and with a relatively stable economy. Thank You for the religious freedom in this place. We pray for the Christians of Hong Kong to be able to reach out to the different religious groups effectively; and also that they can show Your love to those who come into this country in hope of a better future and find taking root difficult.
