Global Nulife Ministries

Greetings in Jesus Name from Washington.

Things have gone very well in meetings here in the States during the past two weeks and I am grateful to the Lord for His faithfulness and your interest and prayers. The warm American hospitality I have received is such a blessing to me.

In June 2007 the Lord sent Laura and Elisabeth McMurray, a mother and daughter team from the USA, to some of our works in India. Although they found it very hot, as it was summer time, they still enjoyed a fruitful visit. Our brothers were happy to have them share in the work. They were especially impressed with the work among the children. (There are over half a billion children in India. Forty percent are under the age of fourteen and fifty percent are under the age of eighteen.)

Through the means of "Kid's Clubs" and training seminars for children's workers (Johney's ministry) we are reaching thousands of children. If we can reach the children we can change the nation. Together it can be done!

The jeep we purchased and dedicated in February of this year while the ministry team was in India is being used constantly to reach the children. The jeep is called "Shalom Hope"... peace for today and hope for tomorrow. Our ministry team visited a new village in Andra Pradesh and met the very dedicated pastor who was formerly an orphan in Samuel John's father's orphanage. He is now pastoring three congregations and reaching out even further.

Presently progress is being made on two church buildings in Andra Pradesh. One is for a slum church under Samuel John and the other for Johney (at the fisherman's village), where he has been working for many years. We have waited for the right time to build for the Seaside Faith Church, a congregation of at least 100 people. Although opposed many times, we now feel it's right to go ahead with a simple structure, which will be used for church meetings and a school.

We are going ahead with the purchase of a new 13-passenger van for Samuel Paul. This van will be used continually for many outreaches, including three leprosy villages, two schools, the large orphanage, three churches, and leadership training. The Lord continues to send in money and we will make a large deposit for the van soon. Our desire is to have it fully paid for within the next few months. Please pray for this need and give, as you are able. It's just amazing what Pastor Samuel Paul does, even though stricken with polio as a child. God is using him wonderfully.

God bless you. Remember that He has "graven you on the palms of His hands." May you and your family be richly rewarded as you share in our vision. God has promised, in Proverbs 19:17, that "He that has pity upon the poor lends unto the Lord, and that which he has given will He pay him again."

Shalom, Nancy
