*My goal in life is to leave nothing behind, to find myself worthless in everything except Christ*
Allow me to share my journey in Christ with you:
I was born and brought up in a very remote village in India. I received my education in an Orphanage called AMG. There, some Christian missionaries conducted Christian Sunday school programs. I used to attend those classes and it was there that I came to know Jesus and to give my life to Him. Growing up, I came to know more of Christ through Christian radio programs which were broadcast from Madras city by HBI. Through contact with HBI, I was able to attend a Bible training program in their college. I found that a college education is not free. I had no money to pay for college, but with help from some Christian lecturers I was able to find scholarship funds to help me through. Those funds required that I clean the church and the grounds every day. I became an obedient student in the sight of the Lord so He created a special interest toward me in the hearts of lectures. As a result, they have given me the very best training. I received my ordination in 1995 on September 29 and graduated from the college. Following graduation I attended many conferences and meetings that gave me the tools I needed to go to work in the Lord's Harvest. During this time of Bible study and prayer I came to be born again. That experience led me to three days fasting and prayers. Through a vision God called me to be His servant among the poor and needy people of rural India.
I married a woman from a poor village and started working as a pioneer pastor in that village and oth er surrounding villages. So far we have reached 7 villages and we selected 7 spirit filled men appointing them as ministers. As a result, some are added daily to those who have been saved by the Gospel of Christ. It is very hard to witness to people who already have their own god, but we know the real God, the only one who can save those who are drowning in sin. You know in India there are 3 million gods worshipped by the Indian people. You can't begin to imagine how strongly orthodox Hindu they are. We work very carefully and gently among the people.
The Lord placed me in the interior villages where there are amny poor and needy people. My desire is to provide education and much more. We give food, clothing, playthings, rice, provisions and medical help to orphans, the fatherless, the motherless and poor children. We share the beautiful love of Jesus Christ with them and raise them in His love. Our merciful God uses me to help these children. I am requesting everyone to please pray for His great work and give your support to help more....
