Meanwhile, FFG’s partner nations all over Asia are off to an equally strong start. Family First Pakistan conducted numerous “Family First” seminars in the major cities of Pakistan in January. Family First Philippines continues its Leadership Training Programs for all members of the Philippine National Police. Family First Indonesia is serving families all over the world’s largest Muslim nation via TV, radio, social media, school partnerships, and other in-person programs.
FFG’s Vice-Chairman Glenn Yu, who will become FFG’s Chairman in April, spoke of FFG’s continued growth: “The wisdom of our strategy of ‘local leadership’ is now clear. Almost every FFG Nation is growing in size and influence while deepening its ministry impact, due to our great local leadership in each of those nations,” he concluded.

Once again this year, by God’s great grace, FoFF & FFG hopes to serve, help, and bless millions of families all over the world regardless of their race, creed, origin, or socio-economic circumstances. Because strong and happy families are key to successful societies everywhere. For 10+ years, the guiding principle of FoFF & FFG has remained the same, “Strengthen Your Family, Strengthen the World.”
