Hello friend,
How are you? I want to take this opportunity to share with you about a special trip I’ll take part in this winter.
From Dec 27 to Jan
3, I will be in New Delhi serving on a
mission trip with my church “New Philadelphia”. My team of 11
servant-hearted people are giving up their vacation days to
display the love of Jesus Christ in India and I’ve been given a
privilege of leading the team. Exciting!
In India, more than 80% of the population practices Hinduism. Because of its influence over the culture and history, there’s deep spiritual darkness and many Christians are still being persecuted today. But what’s interesting is that India was the first nation in Asia to receive the Gospel by Apostle Thomas in 25AD. There is an incredible remnant of God’s people who are being raised up as a mighty warriors and I believe God desires to pour out more of His spirit on the next generation of India. Through them, He will bring restoration and healing over the land.
What am I doing in India?
- Orphanage ministry at Grace Home (teaching classes, prayer meetings, revival services).
- Outreach to slum children.
- Ministry to the Kuki tribe (an ethnic minority migrant community from Manipur, Northeast India).
What can you do?
There are 2 ways you can partner with me on this missions trip.
Prayer. [facebook.com/newphilly] You can pray specifically using the daily updates from the field of our team’s progress. I’ll also send you a pre-trip email with specific prayer requests as I serve as a team leader.
Financial support. Another way that you can sow into this trip is through financial giving. I have already made my personal contributions and I need to raise the remainder of 900,000 krw to cover the trip expenses.
Would you prayerfully consider partnering with me in prayer & finance?
Thank you for reading!
