India Report - Fourth Quarter 2021
Greetings to you all at Oregon City Church of Christ,
Glory be to the God of Heavens who is filling His Spirit in us with all His Love to show Him to the Lost World Through us His Sanctified Children. Our Continuous efforts are never worthful without your Contributions for the Great Cause by His Grace and your prayers around us.
Evangelism
God is kind to me all these months at different opportunities from Family Prayers, Events, for Kingdom to Evangelism, Training and Edification. Sometimes its Emotional, Heart Breaking, and in all the joy of standing for the Lord in any worthful or unworthful situations. At every opportunity we are letting a door kept opened to the Church Youth in turn wise on their possibilities to prepare them for Future. They are helpful to each other for His Glory. We gathered non-Christians of our Contacts with a Christmas Dinner and opened an opportunity to Speak. Hindus and Muslims spoke of Jesus and Peace of Nation. Praise God our Strategies are working on and offline. We hope to see a generation of promising Church leaders through these missions in local and distance Churches. Also very soon we will share the graduation of the Committed Discipling Trainers. Our Generation Map of Discipling camping speaks much of what we do in congregations with Strategies.
Edification
The first Century Christians were so deepened in the heart to Accept Jesus as well as the Carrying the Gospel wherever they go even when they scattered during the time Church persecuted. It teaches us that every Christian bears this responsibility, and we are working so hard to Edify the members to go out and Preach the Word. Not so easy but moment looks initiated in the youngsters. Struck in the Traditions we felt the World is missing this. In going back to the Ancient Church we are so excited to see the response at different Congregations they are willing to go go go. Christian Faith Means nothings if one doesn't Share Jesus Story.
Benevolence
To walk with Jesus in Word and Deed we continue to find and reach the needy with what we have in hand. The needy Widows of Maddulur and Poor Trainees of Machilipatnam area are helped with Sarees and Groceries where the local Officers are involved as the support to the Lords Works. Covid Relief for the needy preachers is transferred to the accounts of the poor. preachers Also paid the Term School fee of the Faith School.
Our Next Generation
We are so happy for the Next Generation of our congregations of the Community is with travelling with the Church and Mission Activities. Their contribution for their age is immense with their Pocket Money in every Church need and their Benevolence is a good sign. Covid made a big influence in their involvement but slowly things are getting more connected in the last Quarter of the Year
Irkugudem Story
Brother Eliah preacher at Irkigudem remote Village stood an inspiration to his fellow preachers trained in our Bible school. God heard the prayers of many to strengthen him in the village where he was once neglected. The small Prayer shed that meets the local church was growth was inaugurated on my hands and that’s Privilege for me to see the Preachers growing.
We contributed 50000 Indian rupees for this prayer shed and it was the second of our Investments on Prayer Shed. Its encouraging to see others contributing for the Lords Work. 6 breaking bread in this Prayer shed and 16 attending on Sundays. Baptistry and Sound System in very much needed for the Evangelism. Prayers are needed and highly Appreciated.
Christmas Celebration
Praise God for this Christmas was Celebrated with all the Three major religious representatives and Political Leaders of our town. The joined hands while cake cutting are those and me and Dad at the ends. This is good sign that we are successful in finding Harmony for the long run of Missions. May God opens their hearts someday to find Him.
