Dear Prayer Partners,
Greetings in the name of the Most High who is our fortified tower! We praise God for His faithfulness in upholding all of us during this covid-19 lockdown time. Though the missionaries couldn’t go out to preach the gospel, it was a time to strengthen the believers. By the grace of God, during the onset of the pandemic itself we could sense the potential longevity of the lockdown and plan accordingly for alternate ministry means. We could identify House Church movement as the way forward for GEMS ministries at least for the next one year. We have given an emphasis “Make Every House an Active Church”. Every believer of the household are being equipped and empowered for this Church growth movement. We asked every fulltime worker of GEMS to motivate the believers and elders to actively meet, fellowship and minister in the houses. We have systematically planned mentoring, monitoring and discipling, keeping intact the doctrinal foundations and shared leadership developments. As part of it, we are constantly having telephonic conference calls, zoom conference calls to motivate and train the believers. It is so amazing to see the new believers praying, joining as one or two families. Continue to pray that this will catch up like a wild fire and the believers will be able to reach the neighbors with the gospel.
Prayer Points:
The pandemic is exponentially growing and the hospital facilities are limited especially in the areas The Call
