We prayed for the special prayer requests received here through e-mail, and hope God answered our prayers.
We will be giving three Holy Bibles in the new field of ministry among non-Christians.
This week’s theme for preaching is Proverbs 9 : 10 — fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. What is and how is fearing God? Proverbs 8 : 113 — hating evil is fear of God. It is life giving — Proverbs 14 : 27, sanctifying, Proverbs 19 : 9, and so on.
This month we will have the annual general body meeting on 26th October. Most probably I will go to Chennai for two days to buy new dresses for our home children and for the old age home ladies and for the poor and poor widows. These are our gifts during Christmas. The two nursing students in another state will be completing their studies within six months. The other two have three years more.
If God is willing I might visit you during March / April / May 2010. It is most encouraging to hear that Sunday class children classes 1 and 2 probably, from Texas Grace Christian Centre, have come forward to give their whole offerings to our children. Sunday class teachers write to me saying though it may be pennies or small their hearts towards our kids are great.
The monsoon here failed this year, but it started raining now for a few days and in the north flooding and many lost their homes and many died. A boat carrying 80 in Kumily capsized and 68 died. Only 47 bodies were recovered. This boat ride all enjoy when people visit us, and five of our churches are in that area. No one from our church was there in the boat. Thank you for your prayers and support.
