Pastor’s Seminar At Andhra Pradesh

Pastor's Seminar at Andhra Pradesh.

Associate Pastor Richard from Independent Church In India, and branch Pastor Isaac Frank conducted a pastor’s seminar in the month of August in Andhra Pradesh state. Over 65 pastors attended the meeting. Independent Church’s goal is to encourage these pastors to stay strong in the ministry for those who are facing hardships. Many pastors are receiving no financial support, and they barely can provide for their families. Many get very discouraged and have to leave the full time ministry to get a secular job which leaves no times to seek after the lost souls.

Independent Church In India provided the transportation for the pastors to come by bus to the seminar and a lunch. They also felt a burden to provide the rice for all of their seven branch pastors and six pastors that they are overseeing in Andresh Pradesh. They are now overseeing thirteen pastors by praying for them, encouraging them, and providing the needs when possible; such as food, Gospel tracts and other ministry supplies. A great need that many Indian pastors have is to have a bicycle so they can reach the remote villages easier and safer. Instead of walking long distances to reach one village per day, they could reach two villages by bike.

Pastor Richard is ready and willing to hold pastor’s seminars any place that God opens the doors. He has a burden to motivate the pastors to be strong laborers and go forth and fulfill the Lord’s last command “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature"(Mark 16:15).
