By TWR Women of Hope’s coordinator for Central Asia, unnamed for security reasons.

No matter how many hardships women in Central Asia face, they always remain dedicated to their families. From raising and nurturing children to fostering relationships with her husband and relatives, a Central Asian woman’s top priority is cultivating an environment of growth for her family.

While these women have many responsibilities, they also face hardships such as unemployment and the unfaithfulness of their husbands in a culture of increasingly common polygamy. But the main hardship they face is spiritual – not knowing the Lord and his love.

As leaders in TWR Women of Hope Central Asia, we strive to bring hope and healing in Jesus’ name to women facing broken dreams and despair by reaching out to them through radio, social media platforms and other digital media. We broadcast the Women of Hope programs once a week and post messages full of hope on YouTube. It is convenient for our audience to also reach us through Instagram and TikTok. An audience favorite is the broadcasting of worship music in their heart languages.

Members of our audience are always eager to share their insights and impressions, which reminds us of the important work we do for the Lord. One of our frequent listeners is a woman who belongs to the dominant religion in our area. She especially enjoys the worship songs we produce. I meet with her regularly and talk about her hardships. Often she has shared that I am her closest friend, which I cherish since the goal of our ministry is to build relationships. I hope and pray that she grows closer to the Lord so she can, in turn, bring change into the lives of her daughters and the rest of the family.

We believe that bringing hope and healing to women through the Word of God and knowledge of his love will transform them, their families and entire tribal areas of Central Asia. We are extremely grateful for the opportunity to openly declare the name of Jesus Christ through the Women of Hope program to a region largely uninformed about and frequently antagonistic to the gospel.
