VISITING WITH HINDUS AND MUSLIMS

ABOUT THE CHURCH PICTURED IN THE LAST POST Greetings in Jesus' name. Peace and grace be multiplied unto you. Praise God we have completed constructing a church called No. 2 Second Coming Church, sponsored by Garry and Gerry Spears. They met the whole cost. We had a feast after that and nearly 500 attended. The chief guests were two local government officers, Hindus, and they were at the service and opened the free sewing class here. We bought two machines here and gave two more to the first Second Coming Church members who had the training there. The Hindu leader, after hearing the message, said that he was fully so far engaged in political work, but he said now he sees we get peace and happiness when attending church. NEW CHURCH We are starting the next church building in another jungle area, and we have made the road to reach the site and cleared some big trees to build the church. The foundation work is started. Here the cost will be high as it will absorb more money to transport material. There are 1,500 families and our aim is to reach them for Christ. VISITING THE MUSLIMS I visited the Muslim area where we have the first Second Coming Church, on request by two Muslim girls. It was a surprise, when I prayed in their houses the adjoining house people rushed in for prayers and praise God I visited 8 houses, both rich and poor. Praise God one family wanted the Holy Bible and I have given them. They regularly attend the church services. One house is very badly broken and leaking and I feel we can repair the house with a cost of $700.00. One man who lost his leg in an accident is jobless and has a handicapped child. This man also I wish to help financially. I expect helping hands for these causes, above the need of the new church. The Muslim people had an open air meeting and I was asked to preside and speak for the construction of a building for the handicapped. They were highly pleased when I presided and talked to them. There was a good gathering with Muslim top people, both men and women. In the morning I walked through the streets of the Muslim people while giving door to door evangelism. I heard they never allow this, but it was Jesus walked with me and His glory covered me. God is great and I am humble before God for using me for his cause. Hallelujah. Amen. ~ Pastor Roy Jacob
