Ek woon in Bandung, the capital of West Java, surrounded by green hills and the hum of city life. Indonesia, my homeland, stretches across thousands of islands—each unique, each alive with its own language and culture. Our national motto, “Unity in Diversity,” feels both beautiful and fragile here. More than 300 ethnic groups and over 600 languages fill this archipelago with color and complexity, yet faith often divides where diversity could unite.

In my city, the Sunda people form the heartbeat of society. They are warm, devoted, and deeply rooted in Islam, holding tightly to faith and tradition. But beneath that devotion lies a quiet searching—questions about peace, purpose, and truth. Persecution has grown stronger across Indonesia; churches are watched, believers are threatened, and some are attacked. Still, the Church stands, shining brighter under pressure.

Even as terrorist cells rise, so too does courage. I’ve seen followers of Jesus love their neighbors boldly, serve the poor, and share hope that no law can silence. Here in Bandung, among the Sunda, I believe the harvest is near. The same God who calmed the seas of Galilee can calm the spiritual storms of Indonesia—and bring revival across these islands.

• Bid vir the Sunda people—the largest unreached group in Indonesia—to encounter Jesus and receive His peace. (Johannes 14:27)

• Bid vir the Church in Indonesia to stand firm amid persecution and to reflect Christ’s love with boldness. (Ephesians 6:13–14)

• Bid vir believers in Bandung to bring unity across ethnic and religious divides through the power of the Gospel. (Johannes 17:21)

• Bid vir those involved in violence and extremism to have supernatural encounters with Jesus and be transformed. (Acts 9:1–6)

• Bid vir revival to sweep across Indonesia’s islands, turning this diverse nation into a beacon of God’s glory. (Habakuk 2:14)
