The following is a letter we received from Pastor in India with some updates for September and October. Please keep him and the ministry in prayer as they face much opposition because of their powerful witness for Christ. Every day they live with the knowledge that their ministry may require them to give the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of the Cross. Yet, every day they continue to minister the love of Jesus Christ to all who will hear. Our Pastor in India lives in a hostile area that is becoming more hostile as days pass. Yet, new churches are being built, new souls are being born in to the Kingdom of God, and the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ prevails. Hallelujah! Read what Pastor says:
Dear sister,
Pastor D given the support you have sent for him. Still he is in the hospital waiting for the surgery. He thanked all the brothers and sisters of the Heart of God International. He could get some debt some money from lenders and sold away his old bicycle but still he needs some more money and waiting for that. Please remember him in your prayers.
Lepers were given rice and all the lepers have been praying for you and they are asking about the church construction. Please consider for that. If we cannot build a permanent building, it would be better provide a thatched roof so that they can continue worship under the thatched roof otherwise they will be discouraged in faith. Sister, it is an important need; please tell all the brothers and sisters for the construction of the church at least a temporary (which costs 15000 rupees).
Here I send you some pictures of outreach ministries, lepers support, pastors meeting, and Pastor D. Sister, we thank you so much for your most valuable prayers because we can share the Gospel in a village called K*** . It was totally of Hindu people who do not like Jesus and it is very difficult to share the Gospel among them. They don't allow preachers into their village to share the Gospel but by your prayers nearly 70 people attended and 4 people accepted Jesus as their Saviour. Praise the Lord. I send you those pictures also along with this email.
Convey our greetings to al the brothers and sisters those who are with you and working for the Kingdom of God. I will be waiting for your most valuable email.
Thanking you so much.
Most sincerely yours in Christ Jesus
Pastor
There is much left unsaid because of security reasons. Pray for Pastor, pray that support will continue to come in to fund the outreaches and daily ministry of Heart of God in India.
