"To visit "Orphans and Widows" in their trouble". James 1:27.
"Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ". Galatians 6:2.
I am very happy to write to you on behalf of the Gospel work I am doing here in India since 25 years. First of all, I want to thank and appreciate your great task of reaching the world with a message of Hope and Salvation. Our prayers are always with you for the great success in the ministry.
I feel it is a great privilege to introduce myself to you. I am Pastor V.Samuel Raju, doing Gospel work in Pithapuram, a central town for more than 70 rural and coastal villages. Our town spreads over the East-Coast line of Andhra Pradesh, India. I have been blessed with 5 Children (4 Daughters and 1 Son). I came from a very poor family background and my parents are illiterates and anchored in superstitions and idol-worshiping. When I was 10 years old in 1978, I fell ill suddenly with jaundice(Hepatitis-B) that I suffered with it severely. For the sake of my healing, That time one Pastor came to my home and told about Jesus Christ. Then my family members believed and accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and took Baptism. When I was healed by the power of the blood of Jesus Christ, My parents dedicated me for the Lord's work. As I grew older, I came to know the story of how Jesus Christ healed me, Then I realized the God's call and responded to it and started doing his work through "GRACE MINISTRIES", Targeting to "Reach the Unreached" villages with the Gospel as our main "Goal and Vision".
There are 25 Co-workers(Pastors) and we are all endeavoring our best to spread the Gospel in towns and villages by our diligent work and devotion. Besides regular weekly services, Every day myself and our ministry 25 Pastors are formed as a team for going to 3 villages surrounding the areas of Pithapuram. Weekly once we are going to as a team by "Rented Van" comprising 40 to 50 members doing Lord's ministry and around about 50 kilometers from Pithapuram. We are distributing Tracks and New Testaments in the area. We are conducting the "Open Gospel Meeting" also in that area. Wherever we go, there we are visiting every House in that village and praying for the sick people.
Making Pithapuram town as the basic center for my work, I am striving very much to reach country-side villages. As a result of my work 3 churches are established. At present, We are concentrating more on one village called Uppada, a coastal village. The total population of that village is 7000. Most of them are Hindus, When I started working there, The Lord has done many miracles and we conducted a very big effort. In that efforts 50 people were baptized.
I am running "Orphans and Widows Home" with 25 Orphans and 25 old helpless Widows in a "Rented House". I have been providing them Shelter, Food, Clothing, Education, etc., by raising donations from generous public and believers. Since the last 3 years in our parts, I am not able to raise, sufficient donations from them and hence am struggling very hard to feed the "Poor Orphans and Widows" and provide them clothing. Because of I have no any support from any organization. I am going on Faith lines. So, Please pray for them and extent your helping hands by sending your generous and beloved support. Also send used clothing to the poor Orphans and blankets to the Widows. Also supply me with Tracks and other literature and story books to the Sunday School Children and for the Gospel work. Don't misunderstanding me for asking you. I am asking you "NOT" for me but I am asking you only for our "Ministry & Home" in India.
Therefore, I request your kindness to pray for our poor Christian brothern and children, Who are being persecuted and suffering from the security and basic needs of life. Inspite of all these circumstances we are marching forward to bring many souls to the Kingdom Of God, By preaching the saving message of Gospel to the unreached people. But we are unable to provide anything to our suffering brothern due to our financial poverty. The areas where we are working for the Lord with so much of poor people. Uncivilized, illiterate and depressed classes.
Kindly pray for our Family and our Ministry and our Home in India. We are very much praying for your loving family and ministry, and we are prayerfully awaiting your kind reply of blessings. We will be ever thankful to you. God Bless You Abundantly.
THANKING YOU,
Your's in His Service,
Pastor Samuel Raju and Family.
