Dear Friends,

Agape Babies Home (ABH) construction in progress: Size 90ft.x 34ft. Will be three storied. Currently, we have two months to one year old five babies staying with us in our house. All the babies and their care givers will move in as soon as the floor is completed, hopefully in June 2012. This is possible because of your prayers and gifts. Thank you.

We just had our 28th General Assembly from December 8-12, 2011: Rev. Cartee Bales, Director, MTW, South East Asia was our main speaker. With Anugraha Presbytery of Bangalore becoming a part of our PCI (Reformed) Now we have 4 Presbyteries and two under consideration. We are more than 12000 memberships. Praise God!

General Assembly

The Lord gave us four new churches in 2011

  1. Paniel Presbyterian Church
  2. Mualtam Presbyterian Church
  3. TKP Presbyterian Church
  4. Kerith Presbyterian Church

I wish introduce the first two churches pictorially!

Paniel Presbyterian Church — About 150 people are worshiping regularly. We are extremely grateful to Spanish River Church in Boca Raton, FL for helping us plant this church. We would very much appreciate your prayer so that they will be effective witness for Jesus Christ in the neighbour hood and beyond.

We are getting close to completing Students Chapel cum Rayburn Presbyterian Church building: On weekdays more than 4000 students, faculty and staff will use for chapel service. On weekends more than 2000 people will worship on Friday nights, Saturday nights, and three worship services on Sundays through out the year. We have about 20% work left for completion which will cost us $20000.00 approximately. We have spent about $100000.00 —90% of fund came from local donation. Pray that the Lord will provide the needed fund so that we will be able to complete it within 2012.

Students Chapel

Pray that in 2012 the Lord will …

  1. give us at least 5 new churches in 2012,
  2. give us boldness and wisdom to preach the gospel,
  3. give us what is best for us to forward the gospel and build his kingdom,
  4. bless all our works for his glory alone!

Thank you for your prayers and support.
