My Friend Going To India

[AnotherTraveler]

This evening a dear friend of mine and I went out for pie and coffee. He has completed a long effort to go to India and will be leaving in January for at least a month.

He is a contractor (house builder) and he is funding his own missions effort. He will be renting a home for a year and when he is not there, the local Christians can use it as they see fit, a homeless shelter, whatever they feel the need to do. His plan (subject to the Lord's leading and changes) is to drill water wells for villages with no water in the summer heat and bring the gospel with the water.

He plans to spend whatever money he has, return to the USA and earn more, and return to India and drill more wells. He is going as the answer to prayer by many of the local missionaries there. The Lord told him to go, and so he is going.

Many places in India, if you speak of Jesus publicly, they will kill you, and the government will do nothing about it, no one will be arrested, it is a non issue.

There are some places where this is not true, but there are many places where it is true.

I have personally seen this man give thousands of dollars to needy ones in the USA, and now the Lord is sending him overseas.

His name is Brother Dixon, and I asked if I could mention his name when requesting prayer for him, he said fine, and he really appreciates any prayer.

He is resolved to declare Jesus Christ and give water to the thirsty until they kill him, and he does believe that they will eventually, and he is fine with that.

It is such an honor to know people like him, I can't even really put into words how much a short visit with a dedicated man of God has done to encourage my spirit, and I really needed the encouragement (Thank you Lord!)

Hi,

I will pray for your friend.

Tell your friend to hook up with Gospel for Asia based in India. There many thousands of GFA churchs all over India. He is bound to run into one. But tell him to keep an eye out for them. They are some awsome brothers and sisters in the Lord.

God bless,

Our Church has mission trips to India constantly and we have very good links with many Indian pastors from all over the North up into Nepal...one man there has the oversight of 20,000 Churches. If your friend would like a few contacts just PM me and I'll get back to you. May the L-rd lets waters of life flow from him to those he meets.

I can get the name and location of their churches....

one is working with the orphans and outcast..... and is a citizen there...

there is another who is also a citizen there and then there is one that is from the AoG churches......
