MERCY MINISTRIES Nurse Priscilla, Villages YWAM Campus Priscilla, Greetings from the East! I am so thankful to you, your sacrifice of love, and your partnership with me in the ministry. I pray that may the Lord will continue to keep His hands on you and your house hold and lead you to build His Kingdom on earth by this work. This month is very important for soul winning without you I can’t make it. New Mercy Ministry to Start: Vision of the Mercy Ministry is getting expand day by day. Visited an elderly lady at her home who is sick for some time and gave her supplement injection and tablets. Primary Health Care School Needed: Leaders are very happy to bring the Primary Health Care School for the community. At this point our greatest need is to start the school is $5,270.00. I would like to ask, 5 churches to raise $1,000 over the summer through car washes, bake sales, and garage sales so that we can get this school started. The second greatest need is for students and a “man of peace” to welcome us and help us find a place to stay. This is a very important prayer need that cannot be overlooked. This would give your whole church a way to get involved with helping the poor!

Through prayer, work, finding people of peace, and giving, we will start this year. Please pray that we are able to receive the house and the house hold things we need this year. Also pray that God leads students to come this year to the school to learn how to help the people who are sick and dying.

MERCY MINISTRIES Priscilla, Orissa, YWAM base Thank you for your prayers and wonderful support this past month. Without your help we would not be able to share the love of God and deed and word. The following is just a sample of what you helped us accomplish. This young man name is Sooraj. He is a desperate street kid who needs a lot of help and discipline. Through some good people, Sooraj came to get shelter in YWAM. We put him to work to give him some responsibilities. Now he is doing Discipleship Training School. However, there is still some character issues to deal with. He stolen some of the student money and the base leader caught him. Please hold him in prayers. We are grateful we get to help him. Thank you Lord! We don’t stay at the base. We go out and do door to door house visits in different Tribal villages Child with Malaria fever, I advised to continue the medicine without stopping and gave some hygiene advice He and his wife has cold & fever; I advised them how to gargle in warm water and not to take alcohol Sharing the word of God and praying for people in different churches in Tribal areas is what we love to do.

The Salvation Process: begins with faith and repentance, and ends in glorification. 1. Repentance means that we “have been saved” from the PLEASURE of sin. It is in the perfect tense. (See Ephesians 2:6-10.) 2. Justification means that we “were saved” from the PENALTY of sin. It is in the past tense. (See Romans 8:24.) 3. Sanctification means that we are “being saved” from the POWER of sin.. It is in the present tense. (See 1 Corinthians 1:18; 2 Corinthians 2:15.) 4. Glorification means that we “shall be saved” from the PRESENCE of sin. It is in the future tense. (See Romans 5:9-10; Romans 10:9; 1 Corinthians 3:15.) Paul sometimes portrayed the process of salvation in terms of past and present experience and future anticipation. For example, he commended the Thessalonians for the testimony of their faith, “how you turned to God from idols [past] to serve the living and true God [present], and to wait for his Son from heaven [future]” (1 Thess. 1:9–10). But usually he referred to only one aspect of salvation in any given verse. JUSTIFICATION – The first phase of the experience of salvation [after repentance] is often called justification. The word refers to the acquittal from the penalty of sin that God gives to those who have faith in Christ (Rom. 3:26). The noun (dikaiōsis) occurs only twice in the New Testament, both times in Paul’s letter to the Romans in relation to the work of Christ and its benefit for Christians (4:25; 5:18). In the use of the verb different temporal aspects of justification are seen. Paul told the Corinthians, for...
