- It’s because of you – that pure water flows for students in Myanmar
- It’s because of you – that tea garden workers can see to pick the correct tea leaves
- Because of you – a Sri Lankan woman no longer needs to follow a string to walk from her bed to the bathroom
- Because of you - Christians in India are encouraged and strengthened in their faith
“Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those that need them, they will thank God.” 2 Corinthians 9:11 NLT
Almighty God loves people. This truth continues to overwhelm us. He demonstrates His love in so many ways. Because of your generous giving, your prayers and loving support, Gary and I are able to share His great love to ‘the least of these’. (Matt 25:40)
Eye vision clinics demonstrate Jesus’ love through practical means. Tea garden workers work hard for meagre wages based on how much they pick. Eyeglasses help them see the proper leaves to pick, and help them with housework and sewing.
After their eye exam, everyone is prayed for. Our partners in Sri Lanka continue to hold eye clinics and reported that “There is a great testimony from the town of Buttala. An old lady’s cataract disappeared. She is a non-Christian. Today she had come to the church with her daughter and testified. Before coming to the clinic, she had not gone out of her house and had a string to hold and go to the toilet. But after praying she is healed and removed the string. The Buttala church worker is invited to have a prayer meeting in her house. “ That's our God - touching hearts and lives and bodies with His healing power.
Our main mission is to strengthen and encourage the Body of Christ as we minister the Word of God, pray for the people and share personal words of encouragement and prophecy as the Lord leads.
They in turn share their faith and the love of Jesus with their family and neighbors. We cannot forget that India is #11 on the Open Doors World Watch List, which rates the top 40 countries around the world where it is the most difficult to be a Christian. Working here requires great wisdom and discretion.
Please keep us in your prayers: November 20th - December 5th as we travel to Kenya, East Africa to teach an intensive week-long discipleship training for 50 - 60 Kenyan pastors, followed by a short safari vacation.
Today, we pray that you will be reminded that Almighty God - loves you. Let His love overwhelm your heart and flood it with His great joy.
What a Journey! What a God. ~ Pat
