One of our brothers gave us hospitality in one of the villages in Gurdaspur. We stayed there for three nights and during the day visited the nearby localities for distribution. Though it was a remote and interior part of Punjab, many believers have been gained by the Lord so far. I personally was overwhelmed by the spread of the gospel in the interior parts of Punjab. I believe, in the entire North India, Punjab is the state with the highest number of Christian population, especially in the villages.
One of the Pastors we meet was so impressed by the truth and the ministry books, especially the Holy Bible Recovery Version. He immediately placed order for the Bible and all the ministry books in Hindi, five sets each as he also has a Christian books shop and he often goes for distribution using his gospel van. I reckoned that as the Lord opening the door and immediately supplied all the books he ordered. Though he was busy with other Christian meeting, he patiently took time to host us even with lunch. The Lord has prepared His chosen ones for His move. Though we met for the first time, we could trust one anther for God’s move.
Later, we were invited by another young Pastor at his house. Though he was interested in the ministry books I felt he did not have the capacity to purchase them. Therefore, I was burdened to gift him three books, on the church and the oneness of the believers, to read. Out of his poverty, he even hosted us with dinner. Though we tried to deny his requested he insisted that we dine with him. May the Lord gain him and supply him richly.
In this district there are already three families through whom the Lord can even raise up His testimony.
Lord, raise up the church in Gurdaspur!
