She lost her right leg in the accident on 2010. LTA works farming, planting, and harvesting rice. Because LTA is cripple and suffers like many who do not have money. Every place LTA plants rice, the people in the village say it will not grow and she is heartbroken. They tell her that she is wasting her time, energy, and money. The villagers promised her that during harvest time that she will gain nothing and stay poor. She shard these stories with my wife and I. We began to pray with her.

SDR and his family were all Hindu. SDR is a lorry driver (large truck in India). When he was driving lorry truck he would get stomach pain and fear for death. While he drove the lorry suddenly the pain would come and then he would stop the lorry be side of the road he would cry try to kill himself. He could not able to eat, could not able to sleep, he went many place to get healing. Also he went to a place of witchcraft, but no use. Then a few days later, SDR contacted me through one of our church member who was working with him. After that, we went to his home to pray for him. I walked into his house and I don’t remember ever seeing so many idols in one home! We shared about Jesus’ love through Lamb of God principles. He believed that Jesus was the only way, the only truth, and the only life! We prayed for him....

As a result, the people start work at 5am and work very hard till dark. The flu, colds, body pains are very common.
