“Preaching the Gospel, doing good works, and equiping others to do the same.”

COVID RELIEF

We heard about children getting Covid in a district about six hours away from us. One of our friends said that over 10,000 children were affected with Covid.

We made the plan to use our bus as a mobile medical center. We gathered Covid medical kits which included Covid prevention medicines, masks, sanitizers, steam inhalers, and other essentials to give to the children and adults in that district. We were able to serve 26 locations during our visit there. Thousands were blessed. Praise be to God alone.

We have been able to continue giving masks to Police personnel along with sanitizer.

FOOD DISTRIBUTION

We are providing food in nine locations for 1300 people on a daily basis.

We were able to give grocery kits for hundreds of auto-rickshaw drivers along with sharing the gospel. Eighty sanitary workers were blessed with quality grocery kits, masks, and sanitizer.

The Lord provided great grocery kits for 100 physically challenged people. We were also able to give grocery kits to 150 needy families in the mountains. We had a great walk.

They have asked us to provide more grocery kits as the people there are having a very hard time.

Our grocery distribution to the people in the hills was reported in the local news. What a wonderful God we have who cares for all, particularly the poor.

By the Grace of God, we were able to give groceries to pastors in our city. They are able to cook the food and share it in 14 different locations. The strategy is to make the church more visible and empower the church to witness of Jesus in word and in deed. We have committed to support for a month of groceries. Each location gives 80-500 meals daily. Please pray for God’s continued provision and for the churches to grow in these 14 communities.

We distributed dinner for cancer-affected families by the cancer hospital. They are going through a hard time. We provided them with umbrellas, mats, blankets, and mosquito nets. Please pray for them.

BLOOD DONATION CAMP

Thank you very much for your prayers. The blood donation camp went well by God’s grace. Thirty-two people were able to give blood. Many others came but due to various reasons, they were not able to donate. Thirty-two people is very good considering the Covid times.

OXYGEN PROVISIONS & EQUIPMENT

Our two oxygen concentrators are a big blessing to needy families. We received another concentrator from a friend. We are hoping to give it to a needy family. Our ambulance has traveled many miles to give oxygen cylinders. So far, we have been able to get 59 cylinders and distribute them in different locations. We were able to help three mission workers along with patients with oxygen concentrators. It is wonderful to be a blessing to people and give them the concentrators. The recipients are so grateful and we give them as they are needed.

There was a call from a Catholic rural hospital for oxygen cylinders in a remote place. We were able to give our 15 cylinders to them. We praise God for making us a blessing.

MISSION HOSPITAL RENOVATION

We are partnering with two other organizations to revive a 100-year-old mission hospital in one of the neediest places with North India. This hospital will be renovated fully and equipped to cater to the Covid patients. This will be a huge blessing to thousands of poor and needs in this pandemic. Later, it will function normally to bless the people. Please pray for the provision to finish all the renovation. If you would like to partner in this mission, please let me know. PRAISE THE LORD: We have received half of the funding. We are trusting the Lord for the remainder.

MINISTRY AMONG THE DESTITUTE
This ministry continues to impact many precious people. Please continue to pray for the right place to start a home for these individuals. We continue to treat their wounds.


Blessings-

Hi, I, Muthu, was born and brought in a Hindu family in a remote village called Mathalamparai in South India. I was the 10th child in my home so I was loved very much by my parents. As it is Hindu custom to worship many gods and goddesses, I was worshiping some gods. Particularly I enjoyed going a long distance by walk to worship our own family god named “Narayanan”. My family every year offered chickens as sacrifice to this god. Another favorite goddess we worshipped was called “Mariamma”- Mother of rain. And I derived my name-Marimuthu (meaning “Mari-Rain and Muthu-Pearl). As the years rolled I was becoming more militant in the Hindu faith. I joined as a member in a Hindu Religious fundamentalist organization called “Rashtriya Swamsevak Sangh”(National Volunteer Movement). I worked with this organization for 3 years mainly attacking Muslims and Christianity. Particularly I was against Christians who came to preach Gospel in my village. We as a group spoke all filthy language and Christ and His followers. Even I destroyed Gospel literature. I was thinking falsely that I was serving God.

Meanwhile a group of Christians were praying for my salvation. One day a friend of mine who was a Christian met me and talked about life. In May 1991, I was thinking about my life and bad friendships, and I decided to follow my friend who told me about a Christian School. I joined this School in June and found that the school was a Bible Collage! Here I was touched by the love of Christians and later I accepted the Lord Jesus as my personal Savior and Lord.

By the grace of God, I completed my Bible College and was serving the Lord for one year in the same Collage. I felt from the Lord that I need to study more, so I went to another Bible Seminary and completed 2 more years of theological studies. In the year 1997 I joined YWAM.

YWAM HISTORY
I completed my Discipleship Training School (DTS) in Dec 1997 at Bangalore, South India. Next two years I worked with Bangalore YWAM in Jesus Film Ministry. I did my School of Evangelism and Pioneering (SOEP) in end of 1999 and went on to
pioneer YWAM ministry along with a team to Jabalpur, North India. In 2001 I joined Pioneer ministries as staff and till today I am working with this.

KAVITHA’S STORY
Hi, I was born and brought up in a Christian family in a remote village in south India called “BNBasanth Nagar”. I was the first girl child for my family. When I was born my father got a permanent job in a cement factory. I was loved and cared for very much by all my family members. I was attending church regularly from my childhood. Later I deve
loped bad friendships which lead me astray. But I came to know the love of Jesus trough my family members and I received Jesus as my personal savior in the year 2000. My life was changes completely from then on. Later, I was called to become a missionary trough my missionary brother and sister-in-law.

YWAM HISTORY
I completed my Discipleship Training School (DTS) in Kolkata from June through December 2000. For the next six months, I worked as DTS staff in Kolkata, which is located in North India. In 2001, I did the School of Evangelism and Pioneering (SOEP) in Guwahati, North East India. After this, I studied six months at Harvest chalkIndia Bible Collage in Guwahati. From 2002 Jan on, I am worked with Pioneer Ministries.

OUR MARRIAGE
Muthu and Kavitha met in 2001 at the school of Evangelism and Pioneering (SOEP) while they were working as staff. While we both are waiting and praying nearly one year for the final “yes” from Kavithas parents. Her parents were reluctant because we both came from different cultures and we speak different languages. In the year 2003 on Jan 10th, the Lord joined us together.

OUR FAMILY
Muthu and Kavitha are serving the Lord till today in YWAM. We are blessed with 3 children- Princy Samarpana (DOB-17 June 2004), Prince Aseervatham (DOB-31 Oct 2006), and lastly Precious.

Blessings and Love

Muthu & Kavitha,
Princy,Prince, Precious

We have been pioneering YWAM ministries in Trichy for the last 7 years. One of the dreams that we had in the beginning of our pioneering was to have a place of our own where we can train hundreds of missionaries.

In YWAM we have moved several rental buildings and so we wanted to stay in one place. Also we did not want to keep on paying expensive rent.

We have been praying for the land of our own and the Lord has given us a place on the outskirts of Trichy.

Trichy new buildingWe have started the foundation work about two-years back. As we did not have the funds, it has been very slow building.

The training Centre will house missionaries and train them, we will train poor ladies with sewing skills, we will be a house of worship and rest place for the widows and we will be a light to the neighbors.

The Centre will be four floors. The floor will be filled with a church hall, offices, housing for singles, families, sewing training floor, class rooms for missionaries,and resting place for servants of God and there will be community development centre for neighbours.

PHASE ONE: To enclose the building with a roof and then to complete the first floor. We have finished the roof and need to start and finish the first floor. At this time, we need to raise $20,000 to finish this phase.

Please pray about this project of training people, saving lives, and sending missionaries throughout the world.

Blessings and Love
