Greetings in the sweet Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who is coming very soon. Thank you for your faithful support and valued prayers, through which we are able to reach hundreds of groups in North India everyday. People are turning from sin and leaving idols for the saving knowledge of our Lord Jeus Christ. We have seen great changes in their lives.
 
We had a very fruitful outreach ministry in December. Our leaders, missionaries and other members from different churches worked together and reached 53 villages, distributing thousands of New Testaments and Bibles. We also conducted open-air preaching and children’s programs. As a result, we started four Sunday schools during the first week of January, which will be led by our missionaries in training. The villagers are showing more interest to hear and learn about Jesus Christ.
 
Ministry among the physically handicapped. Please pray for this work helping 32 blind and 36 widows in Andhra Pradesh.  By faith we started helping these people who have no one else to take care of them. Each month, God has helped us meet some of their basic needs.
 
Our school building work is slowly moving forward. We need much prayer for this project. We need to move all of our school children from the old building to the new one by June this year. Please join with us in prayer and believing God for miracles today for financial matters.
 
Tailoring centers. More village ladies--mainly Muslim women—are interested in participating. We are praying for God to open more doors to start more sewing centers in different villages.
 
We are reaching more Muslims in Utter Pradesh. Please continue to pray for the missionaries, that they would receive strength in the Holy Spirit to work in this very difficult and needy area to win the people for Christ. Our native missionaries are ready to suffer for the sake of the Gospel. Let us stand together with them and pray for them and support them in whatever way God leads, that we may be a great blessing for the expansion of the kingdom of God.
 
Your missionary for the unreached North Indian villages,
N.A.Philip
