W.O.N. NOVEMBER REPORT

WON CHURCHES:
As WON family we must thank to our Lord Jesus Christ for His outpouring of the Holy Spirit in all through the WON Churches three day fasting prayers at our WON Central Church. Glory and I are lead to continue for another six days of fasting prayer in thanking the Lord for His faithfulness all through the year and His fulfillment of plans for the upcoming year. As we were spending our time in the Lords presence Gods word strengthened us to take a step of faith in organizing mission trips with in India. Our motto is that all the WON pastors and ECBC student’s visits different states in India for every three months and speaks in Pastors conferences and open air gospel meetings. Our vision is to equip the pastors and reach the people with the good news.
We the WON INDIA want to share the answer for those who are bounded in the fear of terrorism that is Jesus Christ is the prince of peace for our lives. He reigns for ever and ever.
EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE:
Every second Saturday and every Friday noon is out reach day for the ECBC students. On Fridays we do visit the slums, hospitals, and prison to share the good news of Jesus and every second Saturday we do visit villages and towns on our own and hired vehicles to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to the people and bring them in to the knowledge of Christ our saviour.

During the WON Churches fasting prayer God touched the ECBC students in a mighty way many of them took a commitment to go as missionaries to the darkened states for the gospel like Orissa, Nepal, Chattisgardh and etc. We feel the urgency in spreading the gospel because we are living in the end age where the word of Jesus Christ has been coming in to the fulfillment. We are very much happy and excited to hear the wonderful report from our formal graduates how God is using them in the expansion of His kingdom. Some of them are working in their native states like Manipur, Maharastra and Madhya pradesh, Orissa and Chatisgardh. Some of them are working in Campus crusade organization and few of them are pursuing further studies. This is all happening because of Hid grace and through your support of fervent prayer and generous prayers.
EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME:
Children are very excited and getting ready for Christmas celebrations and during the month of December they will get ten days vacation. At the moment every evening after the study hours they are practicing the skits and action songs to display on Christmas Eve.
Our ECCH kids are singing a song that “Battle Belongs to the Lord” at this particular time where all the people are broken in their hearts and engulfed with fear because of the terrific terrorist attack at our Indian financial capital city of Mumbai. Yes if terrorism is a question mark and brings fear to the people Christmas is the answer which brings joy to the people of the universe.
WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER:
VTC students have come to the last part of their course and by end of December they are going back to their homes and start searching for jobs. We thank God for the placements of the First batch in different offices and also we trust the same with this second batch too.

W.O.N. SEPTEMBER REPORT

WON CHURCHES:

It is very painful to hear of the happenings in Orissa and Karnataka states, India, more or less a repetition of December 2007. Christians and Christian institutions have been the target of Hindu fundamentalists. This triggered violence took place across the above said states. Pastors, Churches, nuns and Christian families have been attacked. Extensive damage to property, houses, offices, vehicles, churches destroyed, damaged or burnt to ashes. Affected many Christians have fled to the nearby forests. Our WON Pastor John maji (ECBC formal graduate) who got involved in church planting work at Gajapati district, Orissa and WON Pastors Mohan Singh and Leemasar (ECBC formal graduates) who are working at Jagadalpur, Chattishgardh and their congregations are in safe and just few days back they returned to the home from the forests. We thank God for the persecution and we do not fear for our lives because we are the Bible believing and theo centered Christians and we know that we are living in the days where the word of God is coming in to the fulfillment. Through persecution we are going to see growth of Christianity at Orissa and also the prophetic word is going to come in true I.e, 50% of population of Orissa is going to be the Christians in further days. The history of early church is going to be repeated again and thank God for Christians in India and all around the world comes on knees after hearing this news and revival took place among the Christians.
WON Churches in Andhra Pradesh are growing in faith, Prayer, love and also in number. God enabled us to pioneer one more congregation in Ratnagiri village, West Godavari Dt. By faith we are planning to fix the asbestos sheets roof with the walls around. Believers have come forward with some little offering and we are praying and seeking Gods help to match up to finish the roof and wall work along with flooring and also we are very much happy and excited to see WON Church new building at Chodavaram village is going to be dedicated for the glory of God in the upcoming days. As Rev. Malcolm says often THINK BIG BECAUSE OUR GOD IS BIG so we are in that job thinking and working big by faith for the expansion of the Gods kingdom.

EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE:
5th Sep had been declared as TEACHERS DAY in India so our students organized programme to facilitate the faculty of ECBC for their sacrificial service in equipping the lives of the students with the help of the Holy Spirit.
As some one said,
AVERAGE TEACHER TEACHES
GOOD TEACHER EXPLAINS
MODEL TEACHER DEMONSTARTES
REAL TEACHER INSPIRES
Who can say that some one is real or greater in life and in teaching than Jesus (Matt 22:16). He is a great teacher who inspires and put the heavenly knowledge in each and every one in spite of caste, color and creed. We trust the student would cultivate the nature of thanks giving from these good practices. Students are also bit busy in doing the arrangements for the upcoming Gospel meetings in school grounds at Rajamundry and H. junction and medical camps in various remote and tribal villages. We believe that these crusades are going to bring great impact up on Christian lives and also bring thousands in to the knowledge of Christ. It is a good practical work for students to grasp some knowledge on organizing things and setting up the things through these programmes and also they do learn the administration skills and also strategic planning in their Christian Leadership.

EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME:
Kids had finished their quarterly academic year examinations and now they are having monsoon break. Most of the students scored good marks at the school and the credit goes to Sis Bharati and Bro Madhu who is the WON central church members voluntarily came to organize study hours for the ECCH kids. We do also thank God for some trained teachers from ECBC teaching the Bible stories and songs to the Kids. ECCH is a place where the kids are receiving the spiritual and physical nourishment in abundance.

WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER:
During the short period of time students learned many skilled works and also found the joy, peace and hope in their lives by listening the infallible word of God. Our aim is to see our girls should grow in faith and be a great help to their families and churches. Let these girls may realize that they are victorious through Jesus Christ

Glory and I take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for standing with us for a noble cause.
Please pray fervently about the WON INDIA ministries and the related projects.

"You can give without loving. But you cannot love without giving."

W.O.N. AUGUST REPORT

WON CHURCHES:
WON INDIA family believes that “Today’s decisions are Tomorrows results” so we are dedicated ourselves to reach out the people with

the gospel of Christ and making them to know that Jesus is Lord and helping the people to take a decision today to see for a magnificent tomorrow. We had a wonderful time in the two days crusade at Pedakadimi village most of the people took decision to live for Jesus. God used us and enabled us to preach His infallible word in the major cities like Hyderabad, Vishakapatnam, Palakol and Nellore in this month. People are blessed and many had experienced the mighty move of God in the crusades and seminars.

Our vision is to conduct the gospel meetings in cities, towns and nook end corner villages of our state and also in the other states in India to evangelize the people with the good news of Jesus Christ. We are so blessed to have religious freedom in our state Andhra Pradesh because in our neighboring state of Orissa the body of Christ is undergoing through the persecution and with in the one month of time 46 churches and 28 Christians are burnt alive most of the Christians in Gajapati district (where our WON Pastor John Maji is doing church planting ministry) ran to jungles to hide themselves from the Hindu fanatic groups such as RSS, VHP and etc. As the result of prayers all around of India and other parts of the world our Central government got involved and brought the peace in Orissa state. Please do pray that prophecy of God shall come in to pass that is 50% of the people in Orissa are going to be the Christians by the year 2010 because we all are aware as a Gods children that where there is a persecution there will be a growth. Let us join together in prayer for the state of Orissa in India. On 29th of Aug we have dedicated new school building at Mandapeta town (Affiliated to WON INDIA MINSITRIES) this is a school runs by one of our WON Pastor Paul Raju with the vision to give free education to the poor and downtrodden kids. On top of the building they do want to construct prayer hall where all the groups of people irrespective of caste/tribe can come and worship the Lord Jesus Christ over there. We are also waiting to dedicate new church building at Chodavaram village in the upcoming months for the glory of God.

EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE:

Students did all the preparation for our 52nd independence celebration we had flag host at the morning and spend time in prayer for India to be saved and that day had been declared as sports day. ECBC Students along with ECCH kids had a great fun time and played some sports. Every Friday afternoon students go to hospitals, prisons and slum areas to organize the cell groups and every second Saturday WON central church along with ECBC students and WON Pastors go to different towns and villages on hired jeeps to evangelize many areas with the good news and also students do perform the skits and pastors do present the gospel on streets.

It is always great joy to see some people took the decision and accept Jesus as their personal savior after the presentation of the gospel on streets. ECBC is a place called as Theo centric (God Centered) Christio centric (Christ Centered) and Missio centric (Mission centered). We want to see the students of ECBC leave the campus with the vision and passion for Christ to reach India and win the people because we are saved for that and called for that and placed in that precious job for that so our only purpose is EVANGLELISM.

EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME:
Kids are always blessing to the WON INDIA family. It is a great joy for us to see the improvement in all their areas of their lives. Most of them stood in first and second places at studies and also in sports. The kids from our Children home were awarded the merit student certificates by the District Educational Officer on Independence Day celebrations.
High school grade kids are very much excited to learn computers during evening study hours. Our dream towards the kids is that they should have a blessed life and bring glory and honor to God in and through their lives. They should never feel pity for their lives rather they should be the model for the others because Jesus promised us that He will make us as heads not as tails.

WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER:
Young girls are very much interested in learning the skilled programmes. No body is with out talent inthis batch students are very gifted and having the curious mind set to learn the new things. When we hear their testimonies our hearts are filled with thanks giving towards the Lord because most of the students shared that it is Gods given opportunity in their lives to be trained here at WON VTC because personally they cannot afford to study the vocational courses but thank the Lord for the wonderful opportunity to the young girls through the WON INDIA ministries. Our wish is to help and uplift the women in the community and support them to stand strong and prove themselves as KINGS DAUGHTERS.
Our heartfelt thanks to one and all for your loving support of prayers and encouragement in the Gods mission work. May God bless and keep you sound in all the areas of your lives.

Thanking you

W.O.N JULY REPORT

WON CHURCHES:
Our special indebtedness to those who stand with us for a noble cause. After the tragic accident of our WON jeep we all were disappointed for a while but the Lord helped us to get START. As a WON family we all have encouraged ourselves by finding the full form for START.

Stop trusting in yourself and your own good works and start trusting in Christ alone
Turn away from every thing which is not from God
Acknowledge that Lord Jesus is our shield and fortress in all our circumstances
Read and trust Gods promises all the time
Tell to the world that we are victorious through Jesus Christ
On third week of July we the WON Pastors along with the Bible College students attended the Gospel open air meeting for two days which was organized by Pastor Kiran Paul in a remote major village, nearly 8 surrounding village people have attended and experienced the mighty move of God in their lives. Many have come to the knowledge of Christ and received the healing to inward and outward lives. We are led by the Holy Spirit to organize the Gospel open air meetings in every month in different areas of our state. Though it costs us the maximum budget but we are moving ahead looking un to the Jehovah Jireh our provider. We wanted to see the name of Jesus shall be lifted up and let the people of India and around the globe should realize that there is no other name on the space of the earth or under the heaven to be saved but only in the name of Jesus we have salvation, healing, deliverance and eternal life.
WON branch Church construction is going on under the leadership of WON Pastor Sam Babu and the roof and trusses work is going on in Koya tribal village called Chennapuram under the leadership of WON Pastor Peteru and Sudheer Vidyalaya School (Affiliated to WON ministries) building has been completed at Mandapeta town under the leadership of WON Pastor Paul Raju, the foundation stone has been laid by Rev. Malcolm & Mother Phyllis in the month of October 2007 and 11the Aug 2008 new School building is going to be dedicated for the glory of God. Our main concern to see the new covenant church in action for the expansion of Gods kingdom and His glory.
EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE:
Students are settled themselves in the new atmosphere and culture by now. As you all know that we have students from 7 different states of India joined in our Bible College to equip in the Gods word for most of the other state students Andhra Pradesh state culture and language are different but now almost every body used and learned to adjust in this new culture and atmosphere. Our desire is to see the missionaries should go from the ECBC to the states of India and also to the globe to make difference for Gods glory. We wanted to train up the leaders who can have the godly Christian leadership attitude and can able to say like this
We must have nothing to PROVE which means God should be proved through our lives
We must have nothing to LOOSE which means every leader is a steward but not owner
We must have nothing to HIDE which means every Christian should be transparent.
EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME:
Kids have finished their first term examinations and most of the kids are busy in the rehearsals for their performance in different programmes at School on up coming Independence Day celebrations. All of them are enjoying the rainy season and for the young kids it is a great fun time to make paper boats and leave in the small cannel besides our Orphanage building. Some of the ECCH kids with the memento given by the local World Vision office for the good performance in the Bible quiz competition in the children retreat.

Classes are going to be commenced on1st of Aug 2008. We have given admissions for 12 young girls who finished their 10th and 12th grades; these are the students who are not able to pursue their further studies due to the lack of financial help from their families. To such students WON VTC offered to do their Vocational Courses with in the minimum fee during the six month in campus training period. Those who did their course in the previous batch got settled in different jobs and above all our concern is to lead the young girls from the remote villages in to the knowledge of Christ and give bright future for them to live by their own with the learned skills and education.
Let us live with the Gods authority. Authorty are two portions Being under the authority of God and Being authoritative over the world. So be bold, be strong and be authentic for our Lord Jesus Christ
May God bless you abundantly

W.O.N JUNE REPORT

WON CHURCHES:
Glory and I are delighted to say that the wind is blowing again in our nation India just like on the day of Pentecost. God’s faithfulness led us to pioneer 30 plus branch churches all in five districts of our state Andhra Pradesh, South India. Most of the churches are pioneered where there is no church. It is our mission and vision to see the body of Christ shall be established in nook end corners and remote villages in India. Two major tribal groups so called KOYA and LAMBADIS are able hear the gospel and has come in to the path of salvation and knowledge of Jesus Christ. Our WON pastors are making difference among those groups and also it has been our privilege to train up the Lambadi group boy in our English medium Bible College this year.
Primarily in our church planting ministries we do built the church with the palm leaf roof (picture is added) and Secondly after the growth of the congregation than we will go for concrete church building. At the moment church constructions are going on in Chodavaram village and Pinapalla Village (sea cost area).

At Orissa state (North India) one of our Bible College recent graduate working on our ministries behalf and started the church planting work at Gajapathi district. This area is covered by the strong Hindu fanatic groups like RSS; VHP who are very much against to the gospel but the God is so good and enabled this man of God to win 13 souls for the Gods kingdom with in the two months of evangelistic work. He sends the prayer request to pray for the disaster area of Orissa State, India. Estimates are that nearly 700,000 people in the Balasore District have been stranded due to the heavy flooding caused by torrential rains. Last week three major rivers began to swell and overflow in the district and even into adjoining areas. Only 4,000 people were able to be evacuated from the worst-hit areas of these 848 villages.
At Manipur (North East India) Our Bible College graduate able to pioneer two congregations among the Hindu populated area with in the two years of evangelistic work. We thank God for the provision to build a wooden church at Chandal district, Manipur.

Please do pray for the safe arrival of our students to the ECBC campus. We believe for great and blessed academic year for the Bible College students and Vocational training students. Please pray that students shall equip and leave the campus with the vision and passion to reach the un reached places of India.

Most of the high school grade kids gone to the TMI boot camp to work for the lord as short term missionaries during their summer vacation and few among them went to Nepal and rests of the kids at campus attended the vacation Bible school and have learned many songs, Bible verses and stories. Every evening they were given time to share their summer vacation experiences, almost every kid has their own experience in Christ to say that they are blessed and wanted to stay as blessed, Can you imagine that your little help brought a wide difference in their lives.
SOME ARE CALLED TO STUDY HISTORY
SOME ARE CALLED TO SPEAK HISTORY
BUT FEW ARE CALLED TO MAKE HISTORY
Thanks for being a person in making history for the glory of God by supporting these kids.

W.O.N MAY REPORT

WON CHURCHES:
Our hearts are filled with gratitude towards the Lord for His great doings all through the summer season Crusades in different part of our state AP, India. Almost every day of the month of May we are engaged to preach His word. By His grace we were able to see many conversations and many healings in the lives of the peoples. We could see many are hunger for the Gods word and most of the people are seeking to set free from their circumstances and bondages. All glory to God for His sovereign power up on our lives to serve Him with our whole hearts to spread the good news all over. I am blessed with an opportunity to speak in two different youth conferences and many young people are touched by the power of God and had the new birth experience with the help of the Holy Spirit and now they are new creatures in Christ and stepped in to the Gods path which is so called path of eternity. Nearly 15 people took water Baptism and made a decision in their lives to live for Jesus.

We have also received few new applications from freshers and we are working on it to select the good committed students to train and equip them at our Bible College to serve God in our nation India and other parts of the world. It is always gives us joy to hear from our graduating students how they have been used by God in various ways in the Lords work.

W.O.N APRIL REPORT

WON CHURCHES

It’s a great joy to hear and see the Lord’s work being expanded in various fields Mission throughout Andhra Pradesh, Manipur and soon in Orissa. We the WON Pastors and ECBC students had a wonderful time to attend the special seminar with Rev. Malcolm Blowes and team. We all are very much blessed and equipped with the new revelations of the word of God. WON Pastors are devoting much of their times and efforts not only to care for the Church (flocks) but to win perishing souls into the kingdom of God. Henceforth, the Lord had added few precious souls into the Church. Despite hardships and criticisms from different angles, they’re moving on trusting the Lord. No doubt, God is manifesting Himself to His people in various ways in both times of joy and sorrow. The Church at Chodavaram is growing up steadily. An old Church was demolished to build up a bigger one so as to accommodate more people who come for the fellowship. Besides, they’re constantly engaged in evangelism and pioneering a Church in surrounding areas. It’s a heathen dominated land however, the Lord has been with them all throughout their endeavors. Likewise, pastors in different places are busy in the Lord’s work even if they lack in many things. As summer has come in full swing, the Churches are engaged in the Gospel meetings and Prayers meetings. It’s always been a blessed time for us in the summer as we devout our time for Crusades and Open Air Meetings. The Lord has been proving His faithfulness in the past years and we do have firm hope and believe in the Lord that these days will be a great blessing to us and to many people as well. Some Bible students have volunteered to stay back for some more days in the campus to help in organizing the meetings. However, we should also realize that Jesus didn’t promise Christians, “a bed of roses,” kind of lives. Few days back, a girl of 16 yrs old passed away after being sick for 5 days. It was shocking news for the WON Central Church at Eluru because she was an active youth member and attending Church and other programs regularly. No one thought that she’ll leave us within few days. She had passed 10th standard in 1st division. Though, poor she and her grandmother lived in joy and peace. In fact, everybody were expecting and hoping for her bright future life. She was living with her grandmother who brought her up with utmost love and as a matter of fact, the girl was her only dream – a dream that she’ll grow up to be a loving and beautiful lady, a dream that she’ll marry a nice gentleman and take care of her when she grows old: a dream that her granddaughter will be there on her dying bed, at the funeral to weep and to show her love & appreciation for her. But, alas! All her hope dashed before her eyes. Indeed, she was looking at her cold and still body she loved most on this earth. It was unbelievable. Is it just a nightmare? No, it’s real. She couldn’t be consoled. She was crying uncontrollably. You can imagine the pain, the loss and the emptiness. Oh God! It’s not in our hands but everything in heaven and on earth is yours and He alone knows all. Of course, heaven is our true home and someday we’ll all be there where there’ll be no more weeping, sorrow and parting. Similar to this situation, Christians all over the world and people here are facing it which is sometimes hard to trust in God for everything. Churches are put to immense pressure due to several circumstances yet without giving up we’re striving ahead looking unto Jesus as He told us, “I’ll be with you even unto the end of the age.”
A small congregation in Manipur has been gathering together to worship the Lord in a small house. A Church pioneering work was carried out by our former student and now a Church is soon to be constructed in the summer. We do pray and hope that Churches will come up in Mumbai, Orissa, Chattisgarh and Maharashtra soon. It’s also been a part of our prayers to go to different states to proclaim the Gospel, to encourage, strengthen & to have fellowship with our mission partners during this summer.

EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE

The college had just closed the Semester for the year 2007-08 on 30th April. Right from the beginning till the end, God was very clearly guiding & directing our path in every step. Indeed, it’s an honor and privilege to train up youngsters from different states of India and send them out to proclaim love, peace and life eternal to the huge population of our country. There’s a sense of inner contentment in our hearts to see the lives of youngsters being transformed into useful and meaningful ones ready to go out to share God’s precious love and serve people. So far, 60 students have been commissioned from the College. God is using them and our hearts rejoices to see them carrying the everlasting message of hope and love in this highly civilized yet chaotic age. No doubt, they’re a treasure not only for the expansion of God’s kingdom but also for the betterment of the country and the world. Besides preaching, they teach to the children and also counsel and comfort people in depression. They’re train to show to the world that we do love and care for you as Jesus Himself did for us. A student in Chatissgarh had started pioneering a Church within 3 months. We are happy to pioneer a Church in Orissa with the service of our student John Majji. There’s also hope and more scope to follow suit in other parts of the country. The students were actively involved in Evangelism, Outreach, Gospel meetings besides their curriculum and daily activities of the College. 20 Students were graduated this time along with 16 Vocational students. It was a special occasion for the College to have back again our beloved Missionaries couples from States – namely, Rev. Malcolm Blowes & Mother Phyllis and Pas. Nick & Mother Dorothy. They brought to us the message of Faith, Love and Sacrifice. They’re the people who love God and loved people like us here and the country. It is due to their self-less service and dedication we could make it up to this stage. They’ve been doing a yeoman service for the past 10 years helping the orphans, the widows and the needy. It was a part of their vision from the Lord to train up youngsters for the expansion of God’s kingdom and glory. The students are now in vocation in this summer and we are sure that they’re going to start working for the Lord in preaching, teaching and contributing whatever they can to show God’s love to the society. Most of them will be going in to the full time ministry. We are quite satisfied with their commitment and zeal to serve the Lord. As they go, let’s join our hearts in praying for these youngsters that they may go with the grace and power of the most high & holy God. The juniors will be in the practical work and they’ll be experiencing new things, and many of them for the first time in their lives. The new Academic starts on 14th July-2008. Our nation need youngsters to raise up and lead people in truth and love service for the peace & prosperity of the nation. May God bring His chosen ones to go for Him in these last days

EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME (ORPHANAGE)

All the kids are thrilled and excited to see Rev. Malcolm and Mother Phyllis and rest of the team members because when ever they arrive to India kids gets the gifts and it is always good to see the joy in them.

All the High school grade kids went to the Teen Missions boot camp to work for God in this summer Srinu, Vikram and Dinesh went to Nepal and rest of them went to the different areas in Andhra Pradesh and the Elementary grade kids got involved in Children Bible camp at our WON Central Church, Eluru. It is a big job to control the kids and make them to sleep for noon as the summer heat is so high. Every evening they have the sports time and boys favorite game is Cricket and girls mostly play the skipping and hopping. When we watch them no doubt we can say all these kids are gifted in some other areas of their lives. Once again Glory and I take this opportunity to thank God for the wonderful privilege to serve the almighty God in and through our lives.

WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER
We just would like to thank & praise God for this innovative program the Lord had enabled us to launched and see the fruits. 16 students, all girls hailing mostly from rural areas have joined Vocational Training Center for the 6 months courses in Spoken English, Computer and Tailoring & Embroidery. After their successful accomplishment of the courses, some of them have got job and still some of them are looking out for the right job. It was a happy moment for us to come together on the occasion of Graduation Service on 28th April. They were all filled with joy hoping for the bright future. They were altogether different from the beginning. Besides the courses, Teachings and messages in the class, chapel and Church services had helped them immensely to realize who they’re and what they’re for – that they’re precious and with plan & purposes here on this earth. They’ll certainly go and build up better families, society and nation. Thank God that they could grasp the love of the Lord in their lives. Seeing the immediate and right results of the VTC, we would like to go ahead in spite of financial needs to help many more young girls who are caught in their prime age with no better scope & hope for their future. Please do join us in praying and building up our fellow brothers and sisters. Many girls are left out with no proper guidance. Even parents neglect and oftentimes they’re left alone to curse their ill-fate. Therefore, our intention is to give them hope and better life. The next session will start on 20th June-2008. We invite you to be a partner in this noble mission. Please don’t hesitate to share with us anything that you’ve in your mind concerning our programs.

May our good God be with us!

W.O.N MARCH REPORT

WON CHURCHES

29th Feb 2008 was a Shocking day for our family and WON ministries because of the passing of my brother Suresh’s (Nani) who was 35 years old due to sickness of diabetes and tuberculosis. As Gods children we have hope and knows in our deeper heart that we will see him again along with Jesus in the glory and eternity but it has been distressed and tragic loss but thank the lord for His comfort and peace which He placed in our hearts and healed our wounded hearts. Suresh (Nani) and his wife Jyothi did a wonderful job in helping us in the ministries especially in coordinating the ECCH kids and even it was a great loss for the Orphanage kids, pray that these kids can be healed in their hearts completely and do rooted in the hope.
We had a wonderful time during our 40 days fasting and prayer time every evening at our WON Central Church.
By the grace of God, there are people responding to the loving voice of God. There’s a great challenge to pray and send for the laborers here as majority of the people haven’t heard the Gospel at least once in their life time. We are constantly praying and getting involved to proclaim the gospel to the un reached people and establish the Churches to expand the kingdom of God.

EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE

We thank and praise God for helping us to establish an English Medium Bible College which has given an ample opportunity for many youngsters from different parts of India to come and be equipped & commissioned for the gospel work in this vast nation where people largely haven’t heard about the merciful Savior.
So far, four batches of Bible students have been sent out from this College to spread the love of Christ. We are overwhelmed with joy to know that they are working for the Lord in different parts of India. And soon another batch will be graduating at the end of April. This batch was sent out for the practical ministry in the Mission field for a period of three months from. It was heartening to see and hear about their commitment and experiences they’ve for the Lord’s work. They were actively involved in the Children ministry, Church pioneering and personal Evangelism. We are glad to know that a student from Chattisgarh has started a church with a handful of poor people out there. Let’s pray that God give him the power and the necessary support as there’s no one to encourage. Nevertheless, our trust is in the Lord and He’ll continue to do it. In spite of hardships and opposition, he has boldly share the Gospel and uphold his integrity.
It’s a great joy to see many of them transforming their lives by the grace of God here in the College. There’s a tremendous spiritual growth as they gathered together daily for devotion and chapel programs. These Lent days have been a big boost for many of them for their spiritual growth as we observed a special fast & pray service. Besides, 24 hrs Prayer in the College’s campus has been a very encouraging and challenging factor to depend on God for everything. God has been answering our prayers and we’ll continue to pray for many more people to proclaim that Jesus is the Lord of the universe. Right now, the students are busy preparing for their Final Exam which will commence from 14th of April. Throughout the year, the students were engaged in the Lord’s works such as Friday Evangelism, Outreach Program, Open air gospel meetings & conducting prayer cell groups.
It’s our firm prayer that many more youngsters from different parts of India would come and be blessed in the days to come. Our nation, India needs dynamic youth to stand up for the cause of the gospel, to stand for the justice and for the betterment of the people.
May the name of the Lord be exalted high above everything!

EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME ( ORPHANAGE)

India is vast land. Due to its many different groups of people, language, culture, traditions & customs and religions co-existing together, it has been called “unity in diversity.” In spite of its tremendous growth of economic in the past few years, little has been done for the poor & needy. There are hundreds of kids in villages & streets of India without having any primary education. The orphans are the sufferers with no one to care for them. Many innocent & ignorant children simply curse and accept it as their ill fate. They do manual jobs and will spend the rest of their lives as servants or workers for the rich and high class people.
It’s with a firm hope and great expectation, we are serving the poor orphans to have bright future tomorrow and know the greatest love of Christ. We thank God for helping us to rescue these kids and to show them that there’s a hope and eternal life in Christ Jesus. Here, they go to school, play, pray and participate in Sunday Class and Church Services. It’s run by the help of donors and sponsors. We want to see these kids stand on their own feet and contribute something for the good of the society. We sympathized for many more orphans who are left with no hope. It’s our prayer that these innocent kids will be rescued by all thoughtful and affluent communities to give them a chance here on this earth to live like others. And it’s our duty to help someone in need for exchange for the beautiful life and the world God has lent it to us. The kids are going to write their final exam in the 2nd week of April. We would like to help some more orphans to show them the way to life in Christ and for their education with your kind support & prayers. Will you kindly join hands with us for this noble cause? To give helpless kids a reason to smile?

WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER

With the increasing unemployment and the ever rising frustration of the youth for a survival on this “survival of the fittest” assumed world, a vocational Training Center was opened mainly to help the youth of the rural and less privileged people. To begin with we’ve launched programs on Computer Course, Tailoring & Embroidery and Spoken English. It was heartening to see many youths responding and the first batch have successfully completed their training. Few of them have already got jobs and we hope that the rests of them will follow suit. It also brought to our attention the yearning of the rural youth who couldn’t afford for their higher education yet desiring to prove their potentials. This program was launched with an intention of income-generating project with just a minimum fee for their admission. However, due to their poverty, they could afford to pay only 40% of the fees. We hope & pray that God will supply all the provisions and the courage to do it as there are many more youths desirous to undergo through this training.
We just want to thank our heavenly Father for all His love & faithfulness. We humbly urged you to be a part of the Lord’s work in your valuable prayers and kind support for the glory of God.

Thanking You
In His Mission

He organized youth conference and many people turned to God and accepted Jesus as their savior. The congregation number is increasing and he has started another branch church in neighbor village.
As all the WON Pastors are working among the tribal and rural villages to win people for Christ, most of them are in need of monthly support and a transportation mode such as a bicycle and supplies including a drum and gas light for the outreach work. Please do support them through your prayers and finances.

Recently a Hindu woman, a politician wife (in a high Caste back ground) invited our students to host cell group meeting at her home. God has touched her heart and she gave her life to Jesus. She then asked our students to come and organize prayer meeting at her home every Friday. .At the moment she is not having chance to come to the church because her husband would not permit her. Please join with us in prayers for the deliverance of her household.

One of our Children Home kid Pravallika received the “Best Over-All Singing” award at her school on 26th Oct at the event of India Republic Day. She sang a song in the midst of the District collector, government officials and school teachers. Even though many were participated in the singing competition she was nominated the best solo singer. She sang a song on Child labor. In this song a child a singing to anyone who will listen and then ends with the child singing to his/her parents. It talks about how the child’s parents had borrowed money from a rich man in their village and could not pay it back and so now the child was his “slave” until the debt was paid. She wishes to go school but she stuck in the cycle of poverty. She has worked for many years yet still the debt is not paid. The song ends with the child begging her parents to help her and to allow her to go school

WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER:
Our first Residential Vocational students have successfully completed the six months training course in Computers, Tailoring & Embroidery and Spoken English. We are praying about taking up some more students to train them up in the above courses. Please pray that God would provide more computers and sewing machines so that Bible College students can also get the training in Computers which would be a great help for them in future as the world is striving ahead in technology.
God has provided an opportunity to start a free tailoring center at Soubagya Laxmi Nagar (slum area) to train the local women in tailoring. We will also focus on that area to spread the good news of Jesus. Nearly 25 members are attending to learn the sewing course. One of our Vocational Student Jyothi is teaching them the tailoring skills and also same time sharing the good news of Jesus.

W.O.N. JANUARY REPORT

WON CHURCHES:
God has blessed this work with 20 full time pastors and so far we are able to establish 30 congregations in 4 districts in the state of Andhra Pradesh and one church in Manipur (near NEPAL). The wind is blowing again as it was blown on the ay of Pentecost. The hand of the Lord is moving in a tremendous way upon our nation and every where people are coming to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and experiencing the power of God in their lives in spite of the persecutions to the body of Christ in the states Orissa, Gujarat, Bihar etc.
WON Pastors are busy with Church annual gospel crusades in their particular villages (Every year we do from the months of January to June.) Our job is evangelism and our passion in winning souls out where the people are, our hearts desire is to fulfill James 1:27. (The religion God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: is to look after the widows and the orphans.)

EAST COAST BIBLE COLLEGE:
After along busy days of Christmas prayer meetings students are making up themselves to fulfill the requirements for their up coming gradation. All the graduating students are very excited for the up coming gradation. So far we are able to send three groups contain 20 students in each group, most of them are involved in church planting ministries and a few of them are perusing further studies. This year we have more than 20 students who are getting ready to step into the mission field. All these students have come from 6 different states from all over India. Our desire is to equip the students and commission them to reach India and win the people for coming Christ.

EAST COAST CHILDREN HOME:
Kids are growing fast in their stature. Most of the kids came at a young age and now they are looking very grown up. At the moment they are enjoying their winter break as they have finished their half yearly examinations and are looking forward to accomplish the academic year to promote to the higher classes. All the high school kids are making a habit to fast and pray on every Saturday for their sponsors and families along with the Bible college students and churches believers. It is awesome to see a great commitment in their lives towards the Lord. Our prayer is that let these kids become a channel of blessing to the nation India and herald the name of Jesus Christ.

WON VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTER:
After the six months of training in computers, tailoring, and spoken English courses students have left for their own villages. These students are going to come again in March to collect their certificates along with the Bible College students upon the graduation service.
We are also praying and planning to take up another 20 new girls and train them in the above mentioned courses. We were challenged by seeing young girls’ lives in the villages and we want to bring them out and show them that their lives are precious and should not be limited to the four walls and religious rituals. Because of the culture here in India village girls are not allowed equal opportunities along with the boys, because of this many are ignored and neglected. We here at W.O.N. want to prove that Jesus has plans for each and every one and that our lives are precious to Him. Most of the girls experienced real freedom in their spirits and many of them are delivered from the bondages. They have gone back to their homes as new creations with great thoughts that they are set free and are no more in the bondage. Praise God for all their testimonies with the tears we are thankful to God.

Finally Glory and I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your valuable support of prayers and financial blessings towards this blessed work in India.

IF YOU BELIEVE ANDI BELIEVE INDIA WILL BE CHANGED. (Praise Song)
