Greetings to you all in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Thank you so much for your continued support for the ongoing programs and expansion of the ministries in India. Many people are benefiting through your financial and prayerful support and experiencing the fullness of life.

Widows Empowerment Programs (SBCMS & ABC): The widows’ empowerment programs in Serango (Odisha state) and Mokokchung (Nagaland state) are going well. They are improving their living standards and are able to send their children to school and contribute to society.

Empowerment of Youth through Sports (CBC): Empowerment of youth through sports ministry is continuing at the Chuchumiyinglan Baptist Church. Boys and girls are actively participating and acquiring skills in soccer and growing in their understanding of spiritual matters.

SCDTES-Farming (BCM): Farmers were given training and encouraged to grow vegetables during the off-season to improve income for their families. Thirty farmers from three villages started growing vegetables and earning reasonable income for the family by selling what they harvest.

Annual conferences: Kui Baptist Association and Soura Baptist Christian Mandali Association annual conferences were successfully held; many people attended and were blessed.

 Workshops: Workshops were conducted for CBCNC Pastors and spouses and SBCMS area leaders. Participants understood the importance of the Integral Mission approach and acquired knowledge on latest trends in theology.

My wife Jane Swarna completed her graduation in Theology from Serampore University and is serving among youth, the women’s group, and church service. My son is working at Amazon in Hyderabad and my daughter is a dental hygienist in Prince George.

• Pray for all the partners in India as they face challenges in implementing the programs
• Pray for the resources for ongoing and new programs
• Pray for the workshops and training programs that will be held over the next few months
• Pray for my ministerial support so that I may continue to serve through CBM in India
• Pray for safety during monitoring visits to the partners

May God guide you and empower you to continue to support the ministries in India.

God bless you.
