Vic­to­ry Bap­tist Association’s Pan­du Mad­dala recent­ly blessed us with a vis­it and an oppor­tu­ni­ty! We have the hon­or of pray­ing and being a part of the work the Lord is doing in India! VBA’s Evan­ge­lis­tic Cru­sade will take place  Jan­u­ary 8–10th, 2023 and the New Church Lead­er­ship Train­ing will take place Jan­u­ary 11–13, 2023. 

Please join us in pray­ing for our broth­ers and sis­ters from VBA, the DBA, and oth­ers as they under­take this over­whelm­ing, but divine­ly appoint­ed task of shar­ing the Good News of Jesus Christ with a coun­try that is 79.8% Hin­du and 14.2% Mus­lim, 3.6 oth­er, and only 2.4% Christian. 

Please join us in pray­ing for our broth­ers and sis­ters from VBA, the DBA, and oth­ers as they under­take this over­whelm­ing, but divine­ly appoint­ed task of shar­ing the Good News of Jesus Christ with a coun­try that is 79.8% Hin­du and 14.2% Mus­lim, 3.6 oth­er, and only 2.4% Chris­t­ian. Please pray for the gov­ern­ment to con­tin­ue allow the work to be done, that hearts will be opened, that lives will be saved, and that the mis­sion­ar­ies will have strength, endurance, clar­i­ty, and wis­dom from our Lord. 

Please con­sid­er mak­ing a donation. 

Dur­ing the cru­sade, we expect the Lord to save the lost. Each of these new believ­ers will need a Bible that they can read and study, just as you did when you were wel­comed into the fam­i­ly of Christ. A Bible costs $3.80 (USD) and has eter­nal effect.

Fol­low­ing the Cru­sade, a New Church Lead­er­ship Train­ing will take place to equip the lead­ers of the house church­es that will begin. This 3‑day inten­sive train­ing includes mate­ri­als and meals for the lead­ers. In the past, Pan­du has fund­ed this per­son­al­ly and through per­son­al loans, but we have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to light­en his bur­den! Please prayer­ful­ly con­sid­er finan­cial­ly sup­port­ing the train­ing. Cur­rent­ly, there are 1700 house church­es plant­ed by VBA, with 500 small house church­es added from this year’s crusade.
