Dear Co-laborers in Christ,

Thanks for your continued prayers that strengthen us in the ministry of the Lord entrusted to us. We last month was a fruitful month. Our children Reuben and Aroma were here for two weeks and were able to go to Deolsari with us. It is nice to serve the Lord with the whole family. One evening all our believers joined us for dinner at our camp in Deolsari. Each night we met in Rakesh house for fellowship. One night Pooja’s mother and a boy from another village (one hour walk from Deolsari we had visited in the morning and invited him) gave their lives to the Lord. Please pray for these two precious souls that they may continue to grow in their faith in Jesus. The boys name is Manoj, he is class 10th student.

We went a village which is about an hour walk from Deolsari where our two believers live. We were filled with joy to see 18 people waiting for to hear the Word. They were all so hungry for the Word of God. Pramod, who accepted the Lord, last year in our youth camp, lives in this village. After the camp when he went back to his village he started to pray and read the Bible on the Sundays with another boy who also became believer in the same youth camp. Then his older sister and other family members started sitting with them and now about 10 to 15 people come for the Service. They have written Bible verses on chart papers and pasted on the walls in a room where they meet for worship. Rakesh also go there to teach and preach the Word of God some times. Pradeep has completed his one year Bible course and is serving the Lord in Deolsari from this month and will be looking after this fellowship.

The work of the Lord is now spreading in other villages. The youths are more open for the gospel. They have so many questions regarding their religious beliefs. They are fade up with their religion. Please pray that we may be given the Word and the boldness of the Holy Spirit to preach the gospel simple and clear to these people and the Holy Spirit may enlighten their hearts and minds to know the Lord. We are praying and expecting to begin three more fellowships by the end of this year.

Keep praying for us and our believers. God bless you!

Co-workers in Christ, Pratim and Vinita
