Well, a few months ago I was beginning to plan a trip back to India in April or May, but things did not work out. That’s alright. The Lord is still working through the cell-phone ministry and people are being saved. Its hard to believe its already been two years since we were there.
Dr Kumar is anxiously awaiting for us to return. He begs Joel and I weekly to tell him when we will be coming to preach.
Part of the reason it wasn’t going to work this spring is that it is exam time for the students and also pastor Caleb is here in the US right now. It would be difficult to plan for crusades while he is busy travelling. He has asked that we make plans for Sept-Oct.
I’m sure this would also work for Dr Kumar in Rajahmundry. So, I am asking for you all to pray that the Lord will open doors of opportunity to make it happen.
I would like to spend two weeks there. One week in Chennai, and a second in Rajahmundry. It will be difficult to raise funds in these economic times we are in, but if the Lord is behind it, there will be no issues.
Please pray that He will give me wisdom in planning this mission trip. I am thinking that we will start raising funds as soon as possible. Hopefully I can think of some creative ways to make money, and also, hopefully there will be believers who are willing to support this great ministry.
Most of you know how to contact me if you are interested in helping out.
There has been incredible fruit coming out of the first trip there. Thousands responded at the altar calls, and now, because of the first trip, we have an ongoing ministry through the cell-phone that has been a great encouragement not only to the hearers of teh gospel, but also to believers here at home.
I believe the Lord can and will do wonderful things through a return trip, and I’m excited to see how He paves the way for the next one.
Thanks for the prayers!! See you all on the streets!!
