Pastor Britto’s team is teaching the children how to pray doing their time of village ministry.

We have never met men with such a burden to preach the Gospel and at the same time so humble and filled with Christ-like love for their people. All I can say is that Pastor Britto and Pastor Richard and their team members and branch pastors are hundred percent sold out for the Gospel! Personally in my own life by having these Pastor’s fellowship and encouragment I have grown faster in my Christian walk then at anytime since becoming a believer. All I can say is that fellowshipping with others
that have given their whole lives for preaching of the Gospel eventually rubs off on you!
As the Lord allows us to raise prayer and financial support for them, we believe that multitudes more in the nation of India will come into a personal and life changing relationship with Jesus Christ. As a team this is our only desire to find the lost souls and give then a chance to hear and receive our precious Lord and Savior. Here in the United States it is very sad that people many times forget how blessed they are. Just to have good food, clean water, and a roof over our heads is indeed a blessing from God. Our country is also free to worship God. In India these physical needs are hard to come by and Tamil Nadu’s government has passed the anti-conversion law just this pass October. If a person is caught converting someone to another religion expecially the Dalit’s they could be put in prison for up to four years and charged a costly fine. It is a very small sacrifice for an American family to give just a dollar a day. A dollar a day given by multiple familes can make a world of difference in so many lives in the nation of India.

We as Christian’s can fulfill our Lord’s last command if we together will step out of our comfort zones and will both share our faith with the lost and share our blessings with those native missionaries who are willing to give their whole lives for the preaching of the Gospel. Our prayer support and our love gifts will allow “Independent Church In India” to reach the lost and provide for the needy. There is no greater joy in this life than finding a lost soul and leading them to Jesus. One day soon we will be able to rejoice together as we lay down the soul winner’s crown at the feet of Jesus because we had the blessed opportunity to sow into such a fruitbearing ministry.

Many Hindu people
are coming to the Lord through our Gospel tracts. It only takes around two cents to print a tract. Many times a whole family or more will pass around just one
