COVID Ministry Update

We have been encouraged by our teams efforts to continue meeting over Zoom and other platforms.  Our participating in our Discovery Groups and T4T groups has shrunk a bit, but we are still making progress and pressing on.  We are praying that what we have learned and accomplished during this time will help us to be more effective when the lockdown ends. 

WEB MEETING TEACHING: Each of our teams has a weekly web meeting with Mike and Su.  I am in the process of scheduling a second time for me to be able to teach and encourage the teams remotely. 

We pray that we will all come out of this stronger and relying more on our Lord!

In India and Nepal millions of day laborers live hand to mouth. They have no savings and depend on end of the day wages to buy supper for their families. When these nations were locked down, they immediately lost their livelihood.

In response we are giving our Indian and Nepali employees an amount equal to their monthly wages – to give away to the most needy people in their Training groups, Discovery Bible Study Groups, and house churches, together with the gospel message and with prayer for all in the name of Jesus. Through this our Lord Jesus is being magnified, glorified and exalted. Already reports are coming in of the gratitude people are expressing. One team leader said that seven people have come to Christ and three want to be baptized.

Our Run Global teams have been out distributing rice, lentils, cooking oil, salt and hand soap to desperate people who have lost their jobs because of the lockdowns. So far we have spent $11,000 on food items and will spend thousands more in the coming weeks. Your generous donations are making it possible. “If you give yourself to the hungry and satisfy the afflicted one, then your light will shine in the darkness…” Isaiah 58:10. The light of Christ is shining bright because of you!  

RUN Global was able to release money to our team members to minister to those affected by the crisis.  God is doing a mighty work and we pray that this work will bring others to Him!

Please pray:
One hundred thirty Run Global team members are out right now, giving essential food to believers and “not-yet-believers” in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. They are also ministering to them with prayer and the gospel message. Pray that many will sense and experience God’s love for them and come to Christ.
