| The amazing team of helpers for VBS |

| Teaching the Kids action songs |
This past month has been a great month with the Lord as well as the ministry. I could see the favour of the Lord so evident every day. I have learned so much of the people here and I totally love what I see, their culture, language, and great hospitality. This month has been packed with lots of events that I was involved in. The main thing was the Vacation Bible School that we held for the kids. The topic was on the fruits of the Spirit and the kids’ response was wonderful to see. We had lots of activities like games, skits and so much more to help them remember the importance of having the fruits of the Spirit in their lives. We had about 104 kids and it was amazing.

The whole thing was lead by three of us who did major work and preparation for this VBS. The Lord helped us as we taught the kids the word of God. The whole team did a great job. The kids were very receptive to the word of God. Three times a week I take tuitions for the kids in the slum and my friend helps me also. It has been so good so far I love the kids and they are so fun but it is kind of hard to teach them as they are a little slow in learning and many of their parents don't permit sometimes. The other ministry I was involved in was teaching Sunday school for the kids in the second service.

Now we are also preparing for the next big event where all the pastors are sending their youth to participate in an event held by our church next month to unify churches here in Ranchi. I also help with the youth service conducting games for them each Friday and that is fun. So far everything is going good because of the Lord's grace and mercy over my life here in Ranchi. I am falling in love with the people and culture here. Recently we also had a meeting with some of the churches to discuss the problems of youths in Ranchi. It went out well. I believe with the stories I hear from the slum kids and youths too that the Lord has called me to spread His love wherever I go. Here the harvest is plentiful.

Every word the Lord has promised me this year and the things I asked for too in prayer was answered and I am falling in love with Him each day. There is so much joy in my heart to minister with these people because these are the kind of people I wanted my life to count for. My calling is to just trust Him and obey. So all together I can see the goodness of the Lord evident in all walks of life.
Some of my prayer points would be:
 |
| Me preaching in English service. |
. Please pray for the kids in the slum that I minister too that the Lord would heal their broken families.
. That our church youth would continue shining the light of Jesus wherever they go as Ranchi is recognized as one of the States with lots of youths.
. To continue being faithful as I minister and to be a good example to follow.
