Severe Persecution in Orissa, India
Brother Court,
Hearty greetings in the precious name of our lord Jesus Christ. You know very well that in Orissa State preaching the gospel is very dangerous, and I am sure you remember about the Australia missionary Graham Stain who was burnt alive with his two young sons in their jeep. In 2008 many Christians were killed by mobs and many were injured. They destroyed my church, church chairs, and the bibles that were in the church. Often we face troubles when we preach the gospel in our area, yet we will not stop serving the Lord here.
In January you provided help for myself and three other pastors from Orissa State, India. When we received help from our American brethren, we were very grateful and happy because we are all very, very poor pastors. Please show mercy upon us as we are serving the Lord in Orissa state, India and it is a very dangerous place. Please pray for us, for our families, and for our congregations. Please kindly continue to help these four Orissa pastors. Our names are: Pastor T. David Raju, Pastor Hrusikesh Digal, Pastor Manikanta Barik, and Pastor Jamilal Kumbhar.
“and god is able to make all grace abound toward you that ye always having all sufficiency in all things may abound to every good work, as it is written he hath dispersed abroad he hath given to the poor his righteousness remaineth for ever.” 2 Cor chapters 8 and 9.
We all are conveying special thanks and greeting to you and your son Walt. Please kindly remember our sufferings as we serve in the Lords work in Orissa state. Thanks again to you and your son and In Jesus’ Name Ministries. My wife and I
