Maintaining Lines of Support

As I write this, those receiving aid from the India Gospel League are ministering to the Marathi people in India; a predominantly Hindu culture. Sadly, it is very likely that over 70,000,000 of these individuals have never heard of Jesus. Further complicating the matter is the fact that the regional government has outlawed conversion of Hindus by Christians, and those not adhering to this rule are being persecuted.

As everyone knows we are living in a very dangerous and rapidly changing world. Unfortunately, it is by no means impossible that if a serious event were to occur in our country, the lines of financial support for the Christian missionaries could be disrupted, and possibly for a prolonged period of time. It goes without saying that the fate of countless Marathi people depends on the India Gospel League’s operations.

In a time in which it is still relatively easy to do so, and with the greatest sense of urgency, churches across the country must consider sending an unprecedented level of assistance to the missionaries, Marathi Christians, and local churches helping to win souls for Christ. An immediate and concerted effort to help meet the India Gospel League’s funding needs, above and beyond what they are currently requesting, would insure that these groups are able to sustain a continued effort to do The Lord’s Work in that region, regardless of the economic situation within the US.
