India Update June 11, 2013

Many have asked about our recent trip to India. You have asked what was accomplished and what was the Lord speaking to us? I have now been back in America and have been processing the trip, praying and dialoguing with our India contacts who are Pastors, leaders, teachers, and councilmen in the areas we visited. I want to report to you what we believe the Lord is saying to us. Please take your time and read al this information and pray with us for the wisdom that comes from above as we endeavor to be a mission of faith and responsibility. Faith to do what ever the Lord is asking, no matter how difficult or impossible it may seem, responsible to our partners and friends who have helped us for these past  37 years of ministry. Moving with patience and clarity, knowing that God does all things well.

While in India we saw first hand hundreds come to the Lord and many healings including several very dramatic miracles. The out pouring of the Holy Spirit was given every where we went. The thing that has come back to us the most through our processing of the trip was the evidence that we had left a footprint with-in the areas we had ministered. There was a clear shaking of the principalities and powers and a renewed fervor with-in the believers. This was not just a good service and good-bye but the anointing of God has remained and continued after we have been gone now more then two weeks. Reports are still coming in on a daily basis of the continuance of salvations and demonstration of the kingdom of God. The Hindu community has been amazed at what has taken place as they hear of those who have been healed miraculously by the love of the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you Lord. We believe that this the day of revival for India. Not a passing small revival but a sweeping revival that will sweep in literally hundreds of thousands of India's people of all faiths. Hindu, Muslim, even lukewarm Christians. Yes it has already begun and will continue.

In October we are planning to return to India to follow up and visit several new cities who are inviting us as they have heard of what the Holy spirit had done in the areas we had traveled. While in India this past time we saw the masses of hungry children and homeless, sick, elderly who live in the streets side by side. Hungry and disease ridden children and elderly. a marginalized people who merely exist not enjoying life but enduring it; enduring the anger and exhaustion which comes from suffering. ------------ I was in one area where we visited a small village outside the city. this is a village where the lower cast were living. In this village thee are 700 widows. These widows have 1500 plus children to care for. About 150 of these children are severely handicapped, and another 100 have aids. We have been offered 1 1/2 acres of land here. The cost would be 10,000 American dollars. On this land we could build a home (25 start) for the orphans of area and a training facility for widows and handicapped children. we could also use this same building for a weekly  medical clinic to care for these.  The building has been estimated to cost about $25,000.00 American dollars to meet all Government standards.  The Government will help in the supply of, rice, sugar and oil for orphans. They will also supply seed money for training projects that will provide jobs for the poor.

Therefore,  for a start up of $ $35,000.00 - thirty five thousand dollars this ministry could begin. An additional $800.00 dollars per month is estimated to be needed to meet the needs of ministry.  I am told that there are many Christians and Hindus and even Muslims who live in this area who would help support this work if it was built.

This same project is needed in several areas but this area seems to be the place to begin. Please pray with us. Please share with us what you are seeing in the spirit and hearing as you pray.  I believe God is asking us to leave a legacy behind us. That when we leave this earth there is something we leave behind that many generations later will be looked upon and our name will be remembered as those who heard God and stepped out to do it. Like Noah or Abraham, or Moses and David, Joshua, Peter and Paul. Like Our fore fathers before us who ventured out in faith to begin this great country we live. Let us make a difference also. Let future generations remember our names like they remember the names of Moses and Joshua and David. let us leave a foot print in the land that can not be removed. Men and women of faith, Hebrews 11 people who's names are remembered not only here on earth but also in heaven.  Yes a legacy of faith and faithfulness is what Gods is asking of us to leave behind.
