Greetings to you all in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I am CP Raju, Senior Program Co-ordinator for CBM in India. I am very much thankful to God for His continuous guidance and His blessings. I praise God that the annual conferences of SBCMS, UBCA and KBA were held peacefully without any problems after a two-year break. I am also thankful to you all for your prayers and support. Please remain in prayer for our partners as they work towards financial independence and sustainability in their projects. Pray that the projects will continue to bring hope and transformation to the communities. Many widows, youth, children, and those addicted to alcohol are seeing their lives change through these programs.

Thank you, and God bless you.

Please pray:

• Pray for all our partners in India.
• Pray for the Tutoring centres that are run by ECM, SBCMS and UBCA. Pray that students will grow in their knowledge and skills.
• Pray for the new leaders in the UBCA. May the Lord guide them as they take on new responsibilities.
• Pray for the upcoming meeting that is going to take place with the church leaders of SBCMS on May 2, 2023. Pray that it will be a fruitful meeting. Also, pray for the upcoming meetings with the leaders of BCM at Mizoram this month.
• Pray For the pastor’s workshop going to be held at Hyderabad on 13 & 14 June 2023. Pray that the pastors will come with open hearts and minds to learn during the workshop and take the knowledge back to their communities.
• Pray for the SBCMS Pastors and Deacons workshop going to be held at Visakhapatnam on 15 & 16 June 2023. Pray that the pastors and deacons will be able to apply what they have learned in each of their ministry contexts.
• Pray for our partners as they strive to achieve sustainability.
• Pray for my safety during monitoring visits to projects.
