A Transformative Work
“That you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God” - Colossians 1:10
Happy Thanksgiving, dear friends! In this season of gratitude, we are thankful and encouraged by all that the Lord is doing. One encouragement has been seeing the Lord continue His work in Abhi who has been faithfully coming to learn the Bible, week after week. He told Rohith that he is realizing how unbiblical some of the churches in South Asia are, and he realizes that some of the things he has said and done in his own ministry were wrong. Abhi said many things are done in the name of God and the Holy Spirit, but he realizes this is an effort to please man and not God. Praise the Lord! We know that God has revealed these things to Abhi through His word, and we praise Him for the transformative work that the Holy Spirit is doing in his heart.
New Friendships
Recently, Rohith had an opportunity to meet three young men at the university. The four of them sat for some tea and conversation, and later that week, the guys came to our home for some more tea and snacks. They are in their first year of studies and their homes are about 5 hours away, so they don’t know many people in our city. Two of them have come to our home a few times since and they even joined us for a game night at our home. All three of them are Hindus, but one of them shared that he and his family are former christians. Hearing this breaks our heart but we are thankful for this open door to their lives and we are praying that Gospel conversations will lead them to surrendering their lives to Jesus. Please pray for these young men and for more opportunities to meet people like them.
With new friends
Game night
Sunday Mornings
We recently began holding church in our home on Sunday mornings. Here, we can freely sing worship songs, study God’s word, and welcome anyone who wants to join. We are grateful for those that have been joining us, and we are hopeful that more people will come and gather around God’s word. Will you join us in praying for this new work?

“I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.” - 1 Corinthians 3:6
We give thanks for God’s faithfulness, knowing that it is His work and His Spirit that brings growth and change. Your prayers have been the foundation of this work and every gospel seed that is planted is a testament of the Lord’s faithfulness-and your partnership in His work. Thank you for your love and encouragement that is felt on the other side of the world, carrying us both through the challenges and victories alike.
With love and thanks,
Rohith and Michelle
