Church Planting Update | October 2022

This month we are excited to share many different updates on our church plants in the Karnataka region. Take a look below for developments in our church planting efforts and how you can join us in prayer.

Pastor Surendra

This is Pastor Surendra's church. This particular area has been extremely difficult, and at times, dangerous to navigate. In fact, last week anti-Christian fanatics bribed the local police to disrupt their service on Sunday. They were also banned from gathering in a building they had previously rented for services. These people are passionate and brave though. They continue to show up, fellowship, and worship regardless. Truly amazing!

Pastor Pampapthy

Pastor Pampapthy recently met the first two men in the photo above. One of the men's legs is paralyzed and Pastor Pampapthy has been visiting him regularly, serving him by applying oil to his legs and praying over him. We’re so grateful for his servant’s heart.

Pastor Nagaraj

This is Pastor Naharaj at his church plant. It’s so exciting to see families and community members joining him in fellowship each week! We are excited about the growth of this plant and the people attending.

Pastor Yeriswamy

This is Pastor Yeriswamy with members of his church plant. He is constantly working to grow in wisdom and knowledge so he can best share the Gospel with both those already a part of his church plant and in the local community.

Pastor Yenkappa

This is Pastor Yenkappa pictured outside his church plant with many members. His plant is set in the Lambani community. We are hopeful that the Gospel will be received!

Pastor Sathish

This is Pastor Sathish. The family here’s here with in the photo are new to the church plant and to learning more about the Christian faith. One of their children is special needs. Pastor Sathish and his church plant are working to minister and support them as they navigate challenges and work to create the best environment for their child.

Let’s Lift Them Up in Prayer

Every single one of these incredible men has been faithful and diligent in the church planting process and continues to work hard, against all obstacles to serve the people they come across.

We are blessed to have so many godly men working in our organization.

Let’s lift up special prayers for each of them this month.
