Story Of Harry
Friday, July 03, 2009

Frank is a young fired up single disciple in the Bangalore Church. Frank plays the drums for the Bangalore Church. The last month was very special as his dad became a disciple of Jesus.

Few months back, Frank's dad Harry became paralyzed. From then on disciples started reaching out to him. But initially he was very resistant and was not willing to give up his sinful character like drinking, smoking, threatening his wife etc.

But disciples persevered to study the Bible with him and it was great to see him responding to the word of God. He stopped all his bad habits and with humility he accepted Jesus as Lord in his life. He was added to God's kingdom in the last week of May. Now Frank's mother and his sister are studying the Bible. To God be the glory.

 

Story Of Mohan Pandhare
Friday, July 03, 2009

Mohan Pandhare is working in state transport department as an accountant. He needs to travel to a place called Gadangliz. It takes him 2 to 3 hours to reach his office and the same time to come back home. He was invited to the Church in Feb. 2009. Initially due to his busy schedule he could not make time for any Bible study and to come for the meetings. We were praying and persevering with him. God changed his heart and he came to Church and was inspired by the teaching and fellowship of the Church. As we studied the Bible with him he decided to become disciple. He was convinced about his lostness. Mohan decided to do whatever it takes to be with the family of God. On 31st May Mohan got baptized. He is very happy now. To God be the glory.

 

Even More Zealous…..
Friday, June 26, 2009

Vinod Jadhav came from a traditional Christian background. Eight years back Vinod was involved in ministry work and was working hard in distributing the gospel tracks, organizing prayer meetings, yet his own life was very empty. Three years back he started driving auto rickshaw for his own earnings. Since that time he got into many sins like gambling.... He used to come home at 2 or 3 at night and was not caring for his wife and two children. Last three years he never prayed and read the Bible.

Vinod was invited to Church by his cousin Amit Chopde who is a disciple in Kolhapur Church. He studied the Bible and decided to follow Jesus. Vinod said he was never taught personally and never experienced the love in the world that he could experience in the Church. On 10th April Vinod got baptized and became part of God's family.

 

Twin Brothers Got Baptized
Friday, June 26, 2009

In the month of Oct 08, few brothers visited Chopde family. There they met Amit and his two cousin brothers, Petras and Paulas (twins). After many follow ups and prayers Amit started studying the Bible. In Dec 08 Amit became disciple.

Petras and Paulas were not showing any interest in Bible study. But the changes in Amit's life motivated Paulas to attend a Sunday Service. Paulas was very inspired by the teaching and the love and fellowship of the Church.

He started studying the Bible and decided to change. After few days when Petras saw the changes in the life of both Amit and Paulas, he came to Church and after studying the Bible decided to follow Jesus.

On 19th March 09, both Paulas and Petras got baptized and entered into new life.

Paulas and Petras were born together as twins on 13th March 1988 and were born again together on 19th March 09. It was so inspiring to see how God has brought this twin brothers to His Kingdom. Every week, Petras and Paulas leads devotion in their family and share what they learn from the Church.

A Story Of A New Disciple
Friday, June 19, 2009

Lizzy aunty is an elderly sister in the Pune Church. She is very evangelistic, she invited Kumudhini aunty to Church while travelling in the bus. Kumudhini aunty came a few times to church and was inspired. One day Kumudhini had a fall in her house and she fractured her leg.

Disciples decided to reach out to her inspite of the distance she lived in. Aunty was eager, and the Bible studies were progressed. The doctors had told Kumudhini aunty not to wet her plastered leg and so her baptism was stalled. One day some of the leaders visited her and reminded her about how only through baptism she could be saved. Some time passed and one day Kumudhini aunty called up the disciples and expressed her desire to be baptised.

The baptism date got fixed but there was an auto strike going on in the city . The disciples prayed and searched for several ways to travel to the ministry for aunty's baptism. Also since two days prior to the baptism there was a water shortage and there was no water for the baptism at the usual venue. The plastic swimming pool for the baptism had to be relocated to another disciple's house where there was enough water. Then on Monday the 4th May everything got ready but the auto strike had not been called off. Everyone was wondering how Kumudhini would come with her fractured leg and without autos being available. By God's grace one of the brothers of that ministry had a car available with him that day and he offered to help out . He picked and dropped back Kumudhini aunty and her family in an A\C car. It was a great blessing.

Kumudhini aunty's leg was wrapped and taped so that her plaster would be protected from getting wet. Everything went off well. Praise God for whom 'Nothing is Impossible'.

American Teen Becomes Christian In India
Friday, June 19, 2009

Hi. My name is Kiara Yeatman and I am 15 years old. I was born in Milan, Italy and I have lived in Boston, Virginia, and currently New Delhi, India. I am the oldest of four daughters and my parents are Andrew and Staci Yeatman. Some of you may know my grandparents, Al and Gloria Baird.

I feel as if my life of only 15 years has already been more exciting and more of an adventure than the lives of many adults, let alone other teens. I have been blessed to have an amazing experience of living both in the States and a third world country.

On January 27, 2008, I was baptized into Christ. This blessing happened to me living here in Delhi, making me physically born in Italy and spiritually born in India.

Teens & Preteens Camp 2009 - Bangalore
Friday, June 19, 2009

It was a super exciting weekend for the Teens and Pre-teens of the Bangalore church from the 15th to the 17th of May. They had an opportunity to get one step closer in knowing their real hero 'Jesus'. For the first time in Bangalore, the camp for the teens and preteens was conducted at the same venue and at the same time. Even though there was some apprehension about doing it together, God blessed it more than we expected.

The title of the camp was "Jesus my Hero".  Lessons like "Jesus as a Pre-teen", "Rock on with Jesus" and "The prince of this world" provided the needed stimulus to get them thinking. Many teens were convicted and realised the need to fix their eyes on Jesus and not on mere men and women who deceive this world as heroes. After the camp many teens made a decision to study the Bible, imitate Jesus, become disciples and have been studying the Bible for the last two weeks.

Good singing, thought-provoking presentations, soul-searching movies and competitive indoor and outdoor games added to the flavor of the camp. 38 teens and 50 Preteens benefited from the camp.
