“Blessed is he who considers the poor; The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble …And he will be blessed on the earth...” (Psalm 41:1-2)

 

How grateful we are for the beautiful spring season that we are in and the great year ahead of us. We are so thankful for all the mission outreaches that we were able to accomplish with your assistance.  In addition, we are looking forward to all the tremendous opportunities of service opening up before us.

 

Completion of plastering and fixing of doors , windows in Punjab

A lot of activities and excitement have been building up toward our involvement in foreign missions. In addition to the ongoing monthly support for missions, we have taken up a number of projects to help communities, ministries, and field workers in rural areas of Northern India during the past year.  Many of you have responded to our call to

partnership in these projects – thank you so very much.

 

 

Building in Amritsar just completed

We have completed (or are in the process of completing) the construction of five worship facilities in Delhi and Punjab. They may be simple structures, however, they are critical to our pioneer faith workers ministering to unreached people groups held in captivity by superstitions,

 

ignorance, and  poverty.  I have included a few pictures that I just received.

 

Outreach Event

I am constantly in touch with the leaders in the field that we work with to provide guidance and to discern how we should invest in the ongoing progress of the missions. We are very pleased and blessed to labor with such faithful and committed workers in India and Indonesia.  Please be in prayer with me for the following projects, which we believe will produce great fruit for the advancement of the Kingdom:

 

1. “Talking Bible” Project for reaching the illiterate people groups. Eighty percent of the people in the rural parts of Northern India belong to the oral, semiliterate, and non-literate folk culture.  This is a powerful tool for both evangelism and discipleship. Talking Bible is a recorded version of the Bible from Matthew to Revelation in the local languages - each costs  

$6.00 and we need 300 of them.  The total cost will be $1,800.

2. Micro-Business Outreach to poor migrants. This is a project to train unemployed young women to be self-supporting by learning to sew clothing to make a living for their oppressed families. The plan is to train 10 women in each session with the goal of 40 women in the first year.  The total estimated cost to run the tailoring institute for a year is $3,500.  In addition, $95.00 will buy a sewing machine for an individual person to start her own business once she has completed the training. This is a tremendous evangelistic tool to open closed doors.

 

 

 

3. Study Bibles and materials to train church planters in Northern India.

It is crucial to fully equip our church planters and to encourage and support

them in their efforts for our Lord.  Total cost $2,500.

 

The above projects are among the pressing ones that are before us.  Would you partner with us in sponsoring one of these projects?  Please make your tax-deductible check out to Jumpstart Network.   In addition to the specific projects described, we also have need for monthly support of the ministry operations.  If you would like to be part of our monthly support team, we would be honored!  Please feel free to contact me directly for more information about how you can be part of the Jumpstart Network team.  Thank you for your prayerful consideration and support.

 

 

Partnering with you,
