Text from this PhotoShow:

Gospel for Asia missionary Jadesh Kour was at the lowest point in his life when someone encouraged him to read God's Word. He chose to follow Christ after reading a tattered, 25-year-old Bible that missionaries had given his mother.
Today, Jadesh shares God's Word with the people of Chhattisgarh, India. He is especially sensitive to people in hopeless situations, like he once was.
Like most GFA missionaries, Jadesh visits people in their homes. Many people share their burdens and ask for prayer. Several women from a GFA Bible college join him for this outreach.
Jadesh also leads several small Bible study and prayer groups. Here he conducts a prayer meeting. This gathering will most likely grow into a church soon.
Jadesh also leads a worship service on Sunday at the GFA-related church in his village. About 80 people come to the service
Ministry does not stop when he gets home. Jadesh and his wife, Bavya, care for those who are the most needy-a widow and 25 orphans.
Caring for the orphans in her home is an all-consuming job, but Bavya says she is grateful that the Lord gave her this responsibility.
This elderly woman, a widow who was abandoned by her family, also lives with the Kour family. Jadesh's mother and Bavya's parents and three of their own four children also live in their home.
Thanks to Jadesh and Bavya's commitment to follow Christ no matter the cost, these people from Jadesh's church now have hope in Christ and a future home in heaven.
