Standing Strong in God’s Word

Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

We are thankful to the Lord for His protection and provisions in our everyday lives. Also, we would like to thank each one of you for your valuable prayers and financial support. We remember you and your family in our daily thoughts and prayers. May the good God bless you with all resources and good health.

In our family devotions, we have been studying 2nd Corinthians. It is so good to know that the Apostle Paul dealt with many issues in the early churches. Similar scenarios are found in today’s churches as well, yet we need to stand strong in the Word. We should be ready to teach whenever we get opportunities.  

Last month one of our church believers got married. God provided for all of their needs. My daughter finished her final exams in 9th grade and was promoted into 10th grade with an 82%.  

Prayer Requests:

  • Please pray for our state’s Christians to be strengthened in their faith in Jesus. In this difficult time, may God take care His people. At the same time, pray that the fanatical group may come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
  • These days the temperature is very high 42° (107 degrees Fahrenheit). It is very hard to sit in church. Kindly pray for us. Also pray for the growth and needs of our local Church.
  • Kindly pray for me and my family. May the Lord use us for the expansion of His kingdom.

Thank you very much for your prayers and support!

In Him,

Pastor 3* and Family

The Lord Will Provide

Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

We express our heartfelt thanks to God Almighty for His protection and provision in our lives every day. Also, we would like to thank each one of you for your valuable prayers and financial support. We remember you and your family in our daily thoughts and prayers. May our good God meet all of your needs and bless you with good health.

The Bible says,

“So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, ‘On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.'”

Genesis 22:14.

God is so faithful to us! He has fulfilled His promise and blessed us with a new house. Thank you so much for all of your prayers!

By God’s grace, our new home is finished! We had a dedication ceremony for it on February 5. I testified of how God has been faithful to us, and how it is amazing to experience His provisions.  

Last month, I was privileged to meet with and encourage a family with whom we used to have fellowship six years ago. I was very happy find that they are growing in the Lord.

In the same month, a government officer visited me, named Mr. V.*. He is a believer. We had a great time encouraging each other and praying together.

This semester, I am teaching the books of Ezra and Nehemiah to the CBI students. Every Saturday, we also take the students for home visitation as part of their practical training.

Prayer Requests:

  • Please pray for the Christians in our state to be strengthened in their faith in Jesus. In this difficult time, may God take care of His people. At the same time, pray that the fanatical group may come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
  • Please pray for Mrs. K. Both of her kidneys are 80% damaged. She has dialysis every other day, and her condition is critical.
  • Continue to pray for the growth and needs in our local church.
  • Continue to pray for our CBI students and staff. Please pray for them to have good health and for the smooth functioning of our college.
  • Kindly pray for me and my family. May the Lord use us for the expansion of His kingdom.

God Is in Control

Dear Sponsors,

Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

The Bible teaches that God’s sovereignty is an essential aspect of who He is–that He has supreme authority and absolute power over all things.

Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for He chose us in advance, and He makes everything work out according to His plan”

Ephesians 1:11

We thank God that every situation in my family is under His control. At the same time, we value your sacrificial financial support and earnest prayers. Be assured that we have been praying for you all. Once again, I thank everyone for your partnership in the ministry.

Last month, we had a wonderful time of fellowship during the conference (above). The theme of the conference was “Church Responsibility.” The teaching was absolutely mind-boggling, but at the same time it was very sad to realize that the Church has failed to do its responsibility. Thank you, Pastor Trent for your teaching and passion.



Thank God that I got the privilege to share about the ministry and prayer requests on behalf of pastor 15 and his wife at the conference (above). My wife and daughter (right) want to say, “Thank you for the lovely gift hamper.” Also, my daughter got the opportunity to recite memory verses in church.    

Prayer Requests:

  • Please pray for the Christians in our state to be strengthened in their faith in Jesus. May God take care of His people during this difficult time. At the same time, please pray that those in the fanatical groups may come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
  • I met with a friend who I had not seen for 15 years at the conference (right). I was very sad to find out that both of his kidneys are not functioning. He is now surviving by getting dialysis twice a week. Please pray for a healing touch on his body.
  • Please pray for my wife’s uncle (right). He getting cancer treatment.
  • Continue to pray for the growth and needs of our local church.
  • Continue to pray for our CBI students and staff to have sound health and for our college to run smoothly.
  • Kindly pray for me and my family. May the Lord use us for the expansion of His kingdom.

Thank you very much for your prayers and support!

Complete Trust

Dear Friends,

Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” (1 Corinthians 1:19)

Many times, we fall because we trust in our own wisdom and our own ideas. But we should remember this all becomes nothing without God. We need to have complete trust in the Lord. In the same way, I have had many shortcomings, but we thank God that He reminds us through His Word and helps us to move forward. At the same time, we acknowledge that our ministry partners are sacrificially praying and supporting our ministry. We uphold each one of you in our daily prayers and thoughts. Once again, I thank everyone for your partnership in the ministry.

In the state we live in, Christians are going through massive persecution. Hindu fanatic groups are threatening to force them to denounce their Christian faith and convert to the Hindu religion. If they refuse to denounce their faith, they threaten that the Christians will have to leave their villages or face dire consequences, even death. Many Christian tribal villagers were gravely assaulted and beaten with bamboo canes, tires, rods, etc. Many people had to be hospitalized with injuries, like a fractured collar bone, fractured wrists, etc. We all are living in fearful situations, but God is helping us to reach out to people in many ways.

In the past month, we were fully engaged with Christmas celebrations. On December 11, we had a wonderful Christmas program (above) with non-Christian children, and it was immensely joyful to involve the children in different activities.

On December 12, 13 and 14, we went Christmas caroling (above), and shared about Jesus by going door-to-door. We got very good responses from the people.

On December 17, as a church we celebrated Christmas on our church premises (above).

On December 22, we celebrated Christmas in the nursing home (above), followed by Christmas Eve and Watch Night services. Eventually, we had the great privilege of sharing the Gospel through Christmas caroling in the nursing home and showing Christ’s love.

Last Month, my wife’s school organized a Christmas program (above) and canteen day. She was a part of the organizing team. For her, it was a good time to teach the students how to interact with people.

Prayer Requests:

  • Please pray for the Christians in our state. May their faith be strengthened in Jesus. In this difficult time of persecution, may God take care of His people. At the same time, pray that the fanatical group will come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
  • So far, we have been living in a rented house. By God’s mercy, one of our relatives gave us a piece of land. We began the construction work, but still have needs to be able to finish the work. Please pray for God to provide all of our needs. 
  • Please pray for Sister L; she is 6 months pregnant but not getting any help from her in-law’s family, who she lives with.
  • Continue to pray for the growth and needs of our local church.
  • Continue to pray for our CBI students and staff to have sound health and for the smooth functioning of our college.
  • Kindly pray for me and my family, that the Lord will use us for the expansion of His kingdom. 

Thank you very much for your prayers and support!

God Is Our Provider

Dear Sponsors,

Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Jehovah Jireh “The Lord will Provide”. Definitely, God is our provider. As a family, we experience this every single day. We thank the Lord for His favor in our lives. At the same time, we acknowledge our ministry partners who are sacrificially praying for and supporting our ministry. We uphold each and every one of you in our daily prayers and thoughts. Once again, thank you everyone for your partnership in the ministry. 

We have set aside time for learning God’s Word. It penetrates our hearts and minds, and helps us walk with Jesus in our daily lives.

Last month, my wife took her students to a nursing home. She got the opportunity to share about the love of Jesus there and pray for the residents.

Also, as a Calvary Chapel family, we hosted an awareness program at a government school. It was wonderful time to motivate and encourage the children.

This semester I am teaching book of Ezra and Nehemiah to the CBI students. At the same time, every Saturday, I take the students for home visitation as part of their practical training.

Prayer Requests:

  • My sister-in-law has depended on an artificial cardiac pacemaker for 8 years. In January she is going to have an operation to replace her device. Please pray that the operation is successful.
  • Please pray for sister Lilly. She is 5 months pregnant, but she is not getting any cooperation/needed support from her in-laws/family. 
  • Please pray for our Christmas outreach to be successful.
  • Please continue to pray for the completion of our house construction. May God provide all of our needs.

Therefore Will I Give Thanks

Dear Sponsors,

Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

“God doesn’t see outward righteousness, rather He sees inward righteousness.” Pastor Joel said, while he was teaching from the Gospel of Matthew chapter 5. It is always good to be reminded again and again, so that we may not move away from God, but rather experience God’s mighty wings covering us.

In addition, we thank each one of you for your earnest prayers and financial assistance for the expansion of God’s kingdom. Because of your financial help, we could move forward with the Gospel of Christ Jesus to the unreached. As a family we have been praying for you, for your family, ministry, job and businesses. May the good God bless you with all resources and good health.

In our family devotion we have been learning the Bible verse-by-verse and trying to follow the footsteps of Jesus in our daily walk. Our Sunday school children are telling their memory Bible verse in the church.

Last month we began renting a new building for CCBI (left). I am teaching the students and at the same time taking them on home visitation as part of practical training.

Hiking While at the Conference

I was blessed to attend and become an eye witness of the conference in a nearby country. It was an amazing feeling to travel by flight for the first time in my life. Thank you so much for such arrangements.

My wife wanted to say, “Thank you so much for your lovely gift and for being a channel of blessing for me. I was in need of apron but I never knew that God would provide it in this way. However, God knows my need and provides for me”.

Prayer Requests:

  • Continue to pray for the completion of our house construction. May God provide all of our needs. 
  • Continue to pray for the growth and needs of our local church.
  • Continue to pray for our CCBI students and staff and for their sound health. Please also pray for the college to run smoothly.

1 Samuel 7:12

In our family devotions, we have been studying the Bible verse-by-verse and trying to follow the footsteps of Jesus in our daily walk.

In this semester at Calvary Bible Institute, I am teaching the book of Exodus. I lead the student’s evening devotions and sometimes take the students for house visitation in order for them to have practical experience. God also gave me the privilege to share the Word of God at a birthday event.

My Daughter Performing a Skit at VBS

We are grateful to the Lord for His protection and provisions in my family. We appreciate each one of you for your valuable prayers and financial aid for the expansion of God’s ministry. Because of your financial help, we could move forward with the Gospel of Christ Jesus to the unreached. As a family we have been praying for you, for your family, ministry, job and businesses. May the good God bless you with all resources and good health.

In our family devotion we have been learning and trying to follow the footsteps of Jesus in our daily walk. In June, schools are going to begin a new school year. My daughter is now beginning 9th grade.

In May, my daughter was involved in a Vacation Bible School. It was a great time to learn and to have fellowship with another church group. I got the opportunity to share the Word of God and interact with the youth group virtually. 

Sharing a B* Village Church

Recently, we started conducting Church services at B* village (above). We also visit the villagers’ houses to encourage and pray for them. In this village, there are two believing families. By the grace of God, they are growing in their faith.

Secondly, we would like to thank each one of you for your valuable prayers and financial aid for the expansion of the ministry. Because of your financial help, we could move forward with the Gospel of Christ Jesus. As a family, we have been praying for you, for your family, ministry, job and businesses.

In our family devotions, we are studying the epistle to the Romans. We are learning that “we gentiles are grafted with Jesus by faith”. Hence, as a family we have been growing in the Lord.

During my visit to another state, I met a Hindu person named S.T.* (right). I was able to share my testimony of how Jesus changed my life with him and encouraged him to know about Jesus’ love.  

Last month, we celebrated Palm Sunday and washed the believers’ feet on Easter Sunday in our local church (left). It was a blessed time, learning Jesus’s style of serving. I also have been preaching in our local church and visiting local families to share the Gospel with them and pray for them.

Prayer Requests:

  • Please pray for S.T.’s* salvation.
  • Please for our church believers to grow in their faith.
  • Continue to pray for the growth and needs of our local church.

I have been doing my personal devotions from the book of Isaiah. God has been teaching me that, even after failure in life, there is hope that God will forgive us and restore our lives. As a family we are growing in the Lord.

Last month, I had the opportunity to visit my native place after being away for seven years. I had a good time visiting with my parents and the villagers there. While I was there, I also visited some Hindu families. I shared my life story with them of how Jesus saved my life and I encouraged them to know Jesus’ love.
