Abel has seen 7,244 people make decisions for Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior in his travels to remote villages of India.

April 2010

During the month of April, Abel saw 350 people make decisions to follow the One True God.

Stories from the field: Sunkari is a middle-aged man who had suffered with sleepless nights for half a year. He listened to our festival from his home and heard that Jesus gives rest for the restless souls, takes away fears and worries, restores health, and fills those who accept him in their hears with peace of mind. Sunkari prayed the sinner’s prayer for the first time in his life and felt hope. A real difference came after he prayed that prayer and he slept well. Oh praise the Lord.

Ramakrishna grew up in a traditional Hindu family and happily sang devotional songs with veneration to his gods in the Temple. People appreciated his praises and contemparory descriptions of his gods, but Ramakrishna’s longed to replace the vequnity of silence and lonliness with happiness. One evening while on his way to the temple he overheard our stories about Jesus going on from the center of town. The stories gripped him with curiousity. At the end of our meeting, I invited anyone who wished to make a confession for sin and accept Jesus to be their Lord and Savior. Ramakrishna prayed along with us, and he felt something change in his heart. He feels great happiness inside and came to tell us about it.

March 2010

During the month of March, Abel saw 343 people make decisions to follow the One True God.

Stories from the field: Even though a Hindu priest had been practicing every ritual regularly, his family was going through tremendous problems. There was no peace or happiness with his efforts, and he could not satisfy his Hindu gods and goddesses. He was left with a lot of questions. His wife had a tumor and doctors said that she was soon to die and there was no cure for her. The Hindu priest was helpless and hopeless to save his family, and he could not find a solution or answer from his religion and gods. That was the time we had been conducting the gospel meetings. He was listening from his house, and it moved his heart to test Jesus. He came and prayed along with us, and now his wife has been healed and the tumor has disappeared.

February 2010

During the month of February, Abel saw 410 people make decisions to follow the One True God.

Stories from the field: Manikandan was in anguish from the time he lost his son and regularly consulted doctors for help. He had struggled with suicidal tenancies and had no joy or peace. When we prayed for his healing, he felt hope rise up from him and his pain vanished. He was able to sleep peacefully that night as well.

A long-term school teacher and her husband who is the village President attended  our meeting. While we prayed for healing, she felt her chonic shoulder pain vanish. The next morning she remained pain free. She testified at our next meeting. Her husband's back was healed after we prayed. They are both very happy and are now following Jesus.

Numerous people were healed of chronic body pain, headaches, and gastic disturbances.

The local pastors were thrilled with the response and numbers added to the churches. The response exceeded their expectations.

December 2009

At the fourth mini-festival held in December, the young people brought the Christmas story to life through drama. For most of the people from the village, it had been the first time that they had ever heard about a God who loves them. The local pastor was happy about the mini-festival started a new church service in the village.

November 2009

A 50-year-old orthodox Hindu farmer was perplexed when his best milking buffalo stopped eating, drinking, and allowing her calf to nurse. Because of her unusual behavior, he called the veterinarian who treated the buffalo with medicine. When the treatment didn’t work, the farmer brought the buffalo to the Hindu temple. The priest said it was possessed by a demon and instructed the farmer to bring the buffalo to a Christian pastor for prayer. That’s when the Hindu farmer brought his buffalo to one of our mini-festivals. When we prayed for the buffalo, it was healed and delivered from the evil spirit. The farmer and his family were so happy and amazed that they invited us to their home to pray for them and the rest of their buffalo. As a result, the whole family believes in Jesus because of this great miracle.

September 2009

Healings: Mrs. Kanakaratnam (68) had been suffering from facial paralysis for the past three years. God healed her and it was a wonder and miracle for everyone in the meeting and in the village. This miracle gave us opportunity to speak about Jesus with boldness.

Mrs. Sevaramma (58) said suffered from asthma for three years, severe leg pain for four years, and has not able to lift her hand for the past seven years. She joined with us in prayer and God's power touched her, and all the pains vanished during the prayer.

Mr. Raju (34) has been mentally affected since a child and acted childishly and abnormally. After receiving prayer, he feel something new and fresh in his mind and claims God made him a man indeed.

August 2009

Healings: Mr. Babu (35) was an orthodox Hindu by birth. He is married with three school-aged children. He is a muscular man and had been number one in all the village. Unfortunately he fell sick and was diagnosed as being under the clutch of Satan. He was brought to the meeting and was freed during the first evening. The people were surprise, yet he is well and God is honored.

July 2009

Healings: Mrs. Mallaswari is conservative Hindu, a regular worshiper of her goddess, the same time she had been a prostitute. Inside her house was the smell of a dead body and the feeling of snakes coiling her neck all the time. She had horrific dreams that held her in dread. She came to the meeting and was healed and delivered from demons. She stopped worshipping the goddess and started worshipping Jesus.  

May 2009

Kanderru is almost cut off from communications with neighboring villages which posed a challenge to do ministry here. Each night we were disrupted by lashing wind and pouring rain. Despite the challenges, 125 people made Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior during this mini-festival.

Paramaikonda is a predominantly Muslim village. We conducted our meetings in the street. Despite scorching summer heat wind, the people happily spent their time with us and 155 people made Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior. It was indeed God’s hand that protected us and helped us to complete the meetings successfully.

Swarnabarathi Nagar is actually a colony formed by villagers who had moved there in search of survival. Comprised of mainly Hindus and evil spirits, we presented Jesus to the people during our meetings and received a good response (80 out of 215 people made decisions for Christ).  

April 2009

Now that school examination days are over, we had a very good response from the people. The local pastor traveled a long distance to visit two days each week to this Hindu village. Meetings were held each morning to encourage those who follow Jesus and together we served food for those who came to the mini-festival at night. The meetings were amazing and 140 people came to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Healing
Mr. Ranga Raju was healed from his sever stomach ache which he had suffered with for six months. He was unable to eat food until God healed him after prayer.
