India!!
I have made it to month 11 here in India. This month I am in Ongole with my team and 2 other teams. We are actually going to be planting a church! We have spent this whole past week healing people and bringing the word of God to the people there who think of Jesus as ‘just another God’ whom they can add to their list of idols. It has been a challenge to minister to people with such an importance upon idols, but the Lord is favoring our work for sure and this church is already on fire!
A few short days ago we held a healing service where legs were healed, fevers were gone and evil spirits were cast out! Due to the presence of the Holy Spirit, many men were lead to want to become a baptized Christian. We explained to the that we were planning on baptizing many people at once after the service on Sunday. However, that was not soon enough for one man! The next morning we were awakened by his voice outside of our guest house demanding to be baptized right then. So we marched down to the river, and baptized him in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Great things are happening here and I am very excited by the great miracles. Please keep me and this ministry church planting team in your prayers as we plant this church. There are many ways that you can help through prayer, and there will be other opportunities later on. Feel free to comment or email me with thoughts or ways you would like to participate in this church plant.
And what kind of blogger would I be without showing you what I am talking about? A squadmate of mine worked on this amazing video that might clear up a few things for you…so enjoy!
