Sunday Best: A Home for these Congregations

first published: Nov. 28, 2011 – Gospel for Asia

A church building is a huge blessing for a congregation in Asia. For many, it is a dream come true.

Pastor Ajoy started his ministry by distributing Gospel tracts in an unreached village. Soon, he became the pastor of 50 new believers. They are so thankful that the Lord provided them with a permanent place of worship.

Pastor Lakshman started his fellowship in a small house. Within months, as the congregation grew, it became more and more difficult to cram into the house.

Imagine this many believers worshiping in a house! Trusting the Lord, they started praying fervently for their own church building.

In spite of opposition from anti-Christians, the congregation completed their building with the Lord's help. They praise God for answering their prayers.

When Pastor Nirmal's congregation received their church building, they were eager to worship the Lord together in their own home church.

Even the dedication ceremony of Pastor Nirmal's church was inspiring for the believers. A speaker challenged them to be the "salt of the earth," as Jesus taught.

Pastor Nirmal and the believers desire to share their hope—and their church building—with their neighbors and not keep it to themselves.

Like Pastor Nirmal, Pastor Surendra is eager to bless his community with his new church building. He has invited everyone nearby to a meeting, where the believers hope to share the love of Christ.

When these Christians go to church each week, they will enjoy the blessings of their church building as they worship the Lord.

Donate to church buildings.
