Editors:
Thanks for the advice given. To avoid false
understand, we want to provide main reasons why we do not write
the original name of "Eko & Eni" or also the location of their service. The reason
is because the factor "sensitivity / context" and "security". Our
do not want to, because the news in an e-JEMMi, service (or even
their lives) to be threatened, especially from the parties
not like the service / preaching of the Gospel. For news
our mission services (Staff e-JEMMi/MISI) wanted to be as wise and
as carefully as possible - we do not want to risk a servant of God
or his ministry.
Another reason, is for the continuity of service to God. Although
"Missionary" is not there, we still must pray for the work
God, anyone that God used there. Suppose we do not know
nama-nama/tempat specifically, God knows, and our prayers will
remain effective and appropriate!
With this explanation, we hope to "correct the impression of less" TSB. not
bother you again - Thank you for constructive criticism.
