Text from this PhotoShow:
The Dalits who live in this village in Uttar Pradesh, North India face difficult lives.
But GFA native missionary Niranjan was called by the Lord to preach Christ’s love in this village, and as he faithfully shares the truth found in Jesus, lives are being changed.
Pastor Niranjan has established a thriving church, and through his faithful teaching from the Word of God, the believers are becoming more like Christ every day.
Unlike most of the villagers, Samuel came from a high-caste family, and before receiving salvation would not have even sat near a Dalit. Now Christ’s love has radically changed him.
He worships the Lord alongside many Dalit believers and has a love for all people, regardless of caste.
Each Sunday after the service, Pastor Niranjan prays for those who have needs in the congregation. The Lord moves in mighty ways answering those prayers.
Answered prayers have opened the eyes of the villagers to see the power of Jesus, and many have come to Christ as a result.
Recently a GFA Bridge of Hope center was also started in this village. Pray for these children to open their hearts to Jesus.
Pastor Niranjan is himself a Dalit, and his greatest desire is to share the unfailing love of Jesus with his people. Please pray that the Lord will continue to grow his ministry.
