This Sunday we were blessed to receive Pastor Sreeraj from the Banjara tribal group in India working in Andhra Pradesh with Agape Outreach Mission. Pastor Sreeraj and Pastor Ryan are both connected with BILD International out of Ames Iowa and equipping churches and pastors through the School of Antioch alone with Pastor Joe Basso from Felch Mountain Bible Chapel. Because of our connections across these ministry avenues we are working towards a loose partnership with all the small North Dickinson churches from Foster City to Sagola to combine our efforts in helping support the work of church planting in India.
Although we are in the very early stages of this partnership we were blessed to meet Sreeraj and hear his testimony and learn about the work going on among the Banjara for the gospel of Jesus Christ. After addressing the congregation this past Sunday, the church took up a free will offering to help support Sree and his family and their ministry endeavors. We are looking forward to seeing how God will unite our efforts and how even small churches in the middle of the woods can make a Kingdom impact. We keep telling ourselves the truth that even though we are small – if everyone does a little – we can do a lot!
Please keep Pastor Sreeraj and the ministry of Agape Outreach Mission along with the growing partnerships between the North Dickinson churches in your prayers.
