Greetings from Nagpur in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank you for your love, prayer and support. By the grace of  God AFAO is growing and more people are experiencing our Lord Jesus amidst of different types of troubles which we can’t explain through the letters.  

The monthly report we get from each mission field it is clear that they are suffering a lot from anti-social elements. We have lost our freedom and every missionary is a target. However, we continue experiencing one thing,

“God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.” 1cor.-10; 13


Our co worker Prakash sing sent this testimony from Utter Pradesh state:


"A new family came to Lord in village Rainabad. Sister Somvathi is from that family. She is 30 years old and her family is a Hindu family that worships idols. We soon found out that Sister Somavathi was completely under the control of an evil spirit.

She was shown to different people and doctors, but nobody could heal her. Our co-worker Pastor Prakash was having a house church in the same village. Somavathi’s family heard that Lord Jesus is heal, so they had tried every other way.

Finally the family brought her for prayer, and during the prayer she started yelling and became unconscious.

The pastor prayed for her again and she became conscious. She was told Lord Jesus healed her. She believed and thanked Jesus. Somavathi and the family started telling the village people that Jesus is the true Lord. Now the whole family comes to church regularly.

Thank and praise God ."

​Our co workers have no source of income except the monthly support we send for them. Our position is very weak, unable to support them regularly. Please do as HOLY SPIRIT leads you.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Greetings from Nagpur in the name of our Lord  Jesus Christ.

Samjee left us six years ago 1st of February 2011. He remains in our heart through the God’s kingdom work started to reach Gospel to the unreached. He succeeded in his work and still it is continuing more than what was there when he was alive. The ministry Action For Asia outreach is his effort with God’s direction and guidance.

Therefore still it is continuing in a better way. If it would have been started with only human effort it would have been closed by now because AFAO faced such a lot of problems from different angles.

Still it is continuing spreading the work to more districts in Chhattisgarh and Orissa where the people in remote areas are   illiterate.

We continue the work in Lord Jesus name and HE is with us in our every step partnering with us through HIS signs miracles. All our coworkers have a testimony in their every month’s report.
 
I am sending a testimony of a man from a Hindu family, how he started coming to the church for worship, send by our co worker brother Pradeep from Chhattisgarh.

​"My name is vinod Kumar doing construction work .My family consist of my wife, me one son one daughter. Within few days my happy family became very sad due to my sudden sickness. Severe pain started for my hand. X-ray and other procedures started and spent lot of money for medicine. I stopped working and my home situation became very bad. Our neighbor said that there is a pastor in the next village. He heals the sick by prayer. Finally I went to the church for prayer. After hearing the word of God I felt better. Then the whole church prayed for me and my pain had gone completely and started going to work. Now my family is a regular member of the church Praise God."

Thank you for your prayer, support and encouragement. Please continue your help.  

Prayer point:
Satyajit met with a bike accident few months ago. MRI report shows that his shoulder muscles are torn internally and some more problems. He has to go for a major operation He will be admitted on 2nd Feb and surgery will be on 3rd. Please pray for the success of the operation and go everything well.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

I write this letter with a grateful heart to my dear and very special people for whom we pray every day in our morning prayer. Our Lord leads us to pray for you regularly.

God give us the burden for it.

Here the situation is worse than before. Sunday worship is the only time we can gather now. The authorities have began placing cameras to watch for our church gatherings. Our God Almighty is leading and guiding us, but we request that you pray for us!

Our God is faithful and HE is working in this adverse situation to increase the faith of the believers.

David Deep, one of our co-workers,   sent this testimony from Chhattisgarh.

"Rakesh Kumar stays in the nearby village. He is a laborer and also his wife. Both of them work for daily wages to run his family of six. They have four children three girls and one boy . For the last three months his wife was behaving in an abnormal way. She was screaming day and night and became violent and hurting people. The house hold people and the neighbors were scared of her.

Rakesh tried his best to treat her. There was no improvement. He couldn’t go to work. The family was in trouble without food. He heard about Jesus and HIS healing power.

He discussed the problem with Pr. David. Pastor asked him to bring his wife for prayer. After the prayer she didn’t scream or become violent. She became normal. Now one month got over. So far no problem also she started working with her husband. Praise GOD."

We thank you for your prayer love and support. You know that without your support we are not able to continue our Lords work especially we have the trouble from those who hate our Lord.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Greetings from Nagpur in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 The work of AFAO reaching Gospel to the unreached areas is continuing in spite of troubles and objections in most of the mission fields. People (Govt) are watching our every step and scrutinizing our work. Our workers are traveling ten k.m. inside the forest for water baptisms. Now the situation is very very bad. Still more people are coming to the Lord and many miracles are happening. Thankfully, none of our missionaries have gone back due to trouble. In fact some are getting more strength to work and live for Jesus.

”God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled,” 2 Thess.  1:6

Our co worker Manik rao Baghare sent this testimony of a new believer from his church.  

"My name is Roshni Sathnamy. We belong to a Hindu family. My husband, two year old daughter, and I stay in a rented house in Nagpur. My husband work for daily wages. I have had severe   pain in my hand. Though I had taken lots medicine, the pain was not reducing. One day I heard the word of God from the pastor. I began to feel a coolness in my heart. I shared my problem with the pastor and he prayed for me, applying oil on my hand. I instantly felt relief from my pain and it has never returned! My husband and I surrendered ourselves to Jesus and decided to live for HIM. We attend the Sunday worship regularly. We thank and praise God together."
 
We thank you for your prayer, love, support, and encouragement. We continue the kingdom work only because of you. It is our joint effort.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Greetings from Nagpur in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We thank you for your full co operation and prayer for taking for ward this ministry successfully facing all the troubles and trials.
Our co workers are working hard without thinking whether it is scorching heat or heavy rain .

It is our responsibility to look after their family. I am very sorry to write that none of our coworkers’ children are going to school so far, even though the school started two weeks ago, because they don’t have the initial expenses for the school. I didn’t get even one rupee for this purpose to give them.

I know only one thing OUR GOD IS GREAT.  ‘My God will meet all your needs according to HIS glorious riches in Christ Jesus “(Phil.:4 -19)

Even though the outreach work is restricted, our God is working more miracles and bringing more people to God . The following testimony has been sent by br.  Prakash Nayak from Orissa. 
Umesh khura lives in  our village working as a laborer. He is 22 years old and staying with his father and mother.

"For the last one year he had burning of stomach and vomiting. Even after having food he had the same problem He went to many doctors and admitted in hospital many times. He had no relief. Finally through his neighbor he came to me. I shared the word of God with him. He felt comfortable. Then I prayed for him. On the spot the burning sensation of his Stomach has been stopped. Now more than one month got over. Till today he has no burning or vomiting. Now he is a  regular church member along with his parents.  PRAISE  GOD."
                                                                                   
Prayer point:
Please pray for the provision to send our co workers children to school.

​Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Greetings from Nagpur in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I thank and praise God for HIS mercy and Grace that enables us to continue the work up to this day. We could do nothing without Him being with us every step.

​Many times I have thought of the difficulty moving forward with lots of problems from different field, even beyond all the financial problems... yet, I could hear HIS whisper "FEAR NOT I AM WITH YOU..."
