Spirit of God Moving in Narganjo, North India<\/strong><\/h2>\n

God always surprises us with His mighty acts of deliverance. He is not only a God of quality, but He also cares for quantity. IPHC India is in its centennial year, and God called 157 people who accepted the Lord and were baptized on February 23, 2020, at Narganjo. Never in our history of 100 years, have we seen 100 people accept baptism in a single day. This is a new day and a new beginning. We are grateful for the contribution of Rev. and Mrs. Van Bloss for their teachings, which laid the foundation for this movement. We are also extremely grateful to Rev. Jim Eby for helping us to host the Great Commission Equipping Conference training in this region, which has helped this movement to focus on discipleship and evangelism.<\/p>\n

The ministry in the Narganjo region is led by Pastor Shantial. He is an amazing man of God with much passion and unwavering faith. God has poured out His blessing over him and his ministry as he serves in great humility. He is an exceptional leader and a gift to the IPHC. This January, he was elected to serve on the Conference Board.<\/p>\n

Shantial was working in Delhi in 2009 when God called him to full-time ministry. He saw a vision that he was standing on a mountain, and a multitude was listening to him as he preached the Word. He understood that God was calling him to his own native village, Narganjo, which is surrounded by mountains and jungle. This is the village where one of our IPHC missionaries, Emma B. Law, spent her whole life serving the poorest of the poor. This area is still one of the most underprivileged areas in the world. Shantial\u2019s father was a product of Emma's ministry. Here we are now, witnessing what God can do with one man to accomplish His grand purpose.<\/p>\n

The work is now growing very fast in this area, and Pastor Shantial needs help. Eleven young men and one woman have committed to serving the Lord in this movement. Kindly pray for this movement to grow beyond what we see today. This can happen if we, together, strengthen his hand. Shantial leaves his house in the morning and stays out until evening every day, ministering and sharing the good news. He is struggling physically because of a recent heart surgery, but nothing has stopped him.<\/p>\n

Shantial travels in the mountain on his old motorbike. He has never asked for a new motorbike, but he is in great need of one. He also told me that if he had the money, he would buy a small van that could seat six to seven people to use for ministry. He thinks that team ministry with musicians and singers would help to increase the speed of reaching unreached places.<\/p>\n

This region is one of the most backward regions. People here live in jungles, where their only earnings come from cutting wood and taking it to the nearby towns to sell. However, this hasn\u2019t stopped them from being generous. Shantial has taught them to give a tithe. In 2019, they were the second-highest givers to missions in North India. They are taking care of most of the needs of this ministry. If you could visit, you would know the impact this ministry is making.<\/p>\n

We are so overwhelmed at what God is up to. The Narganjo church planting movement is good ground to sow. I assure you that you will not regret being involved. This area is destined to create history, not only for the IPHC, but as a whole in North India.<\/p>\n

    Jennifer Moore ha estado con el Ministerio de Misiones Mundiales desde 2011. Recientemente tuvo la oportunidad de trabajar con Centraal Caf\u00e9 en Amberes, B\u00e9lgica, junto con los misioneros de carrera, Bill y Gretchen Schwartz, durante dos meses y medio. Aqu\u00ed es donde se cultiv\u00f3 su pasi\u00f3n por participar en Coffee House Ministries. Aqu\u00ed hay una instant\u00e1nea de su reciente viaje y donde cree que Dios la est\u00e1 guiando a continuaci\u00f3n. <\/p>

    Para dar a Jennifer, vaya a give.iphc.org\/moore-jennifer<\/a><\/strong> <\/p>

    \u201cSi los alimentas, vendr\u00e1n\u201d. He escuchado a mi madre decir esta declaraci\u00f3n de parodia muchas veces a lo largo de mi vida. Siempre me re\u00eda cuando lo dec\u00eda, pero una y otra vez, lo he visto suceder.<\/em> <\/p>

    Muchas veces a lo largo de las Escrituras vemos a Jes\u00fas comiendo con sus disc\u00edpulos, con pecadores e incluso con fariseos. Cada vez que come con alguien, tambi\u00e9n les ense\u00f1a. Cuando Jes\u00fas se encontr\u00f3 con Zaqueo, le dijo que deb\u00eda ser un invitado de Zaqueo. En esa cultura, esto significaba que estar\u00edan comiendo juntos. Debido a que Jes\u00fas se acerc\u00f3 a Zaqueo y desarroll\u00f3 una relaci\u00f3n con \u00e9l, el coraz\u00f3n de Zaqueo se abri\u00f3 a la verdad. Esto me recuerda otro principio que aprend\u00ed de mi madre: cuando se satisface el hambre f\u00edsica, la gente est\u00e1 dispuesta a permitirte satisfacer tu hambre espiritual tambi\u00e9n. Fue parcialmente con esto en mente que comenz\u00f3 mi deseo de ser parte de Coffee House Ministries.<\/em> <\/p>

    Este verano, tuve la oportunidad de unirme al equipo en Amberes, B\u00e9lgica. Fui a ayudar en la apertura de Centraal Cafe y encontr\u00e9 la oportunidad de usar uno de los regalos que Dios me dio, la capacidad de hornear. No sonar mi propia bocina, pero soy bastante bueno en eso. Una de las ventajas de tener un panadero "interno" es la capacidad de mantener precios muy asequibles para deliciosos productos horneados.<\/em> <\/p>

    A pesar de estar all\u00ed solo por poco tiempo, pude conocer a algunas personas incre\u00edbles. Muchas personas de Christian Community, la plantaci\u00f3n de iglesias en Amberes, vinieron a nuestras noches abiertas, pero tambi\u00e9n tuvimos a varias personas entrando por curiosidad. Fue en una de las noches de cafeter\u00eda que pude hablar m\u00e1s a fondo con una de las damas que acababa de comenzar a venir a la iglesia. Se mud\u00f3 a Amberes desde Francia para trabajar y ten\u00eda muy poca formaci\u00f3n espiritual, pero estaba buscando m\u00e1s sentido en su vida. Ella es solo un ejemplo de las muchas personas que buscan desesperadamente la luz y el amor de Cristo. Que yo sepa, ella todav\u00eda asiste a Christian Community.<\/em> <\/p>

    El caf\u00e9 tiene una ubicaci\u00f3n incre\u00edble. Est\u00e1 justo a lo largo del r\u00edo, justo al lado de una v\u00eda principal, y est\u00e1 rodeado de edificios de oficinas. \u00bfQui\u00e9n no querr\u00eda tomar un caf\u00e9 en una cafeter\u00eda local y acogedora? Realmente creo que cuando le ofreces algo de comer a alguien, se abrir\u00e1 la puerta para construir relaciones, y este es un paso clave para alcanzarlo con el Evangelio.<\/em> Gracias por tomarse el tiempo de leer sobre esta incre\u00edble oportunidad que Dios ha puesto frente a m\u00ed. Estoy ansioso por regresar lo antes posible para compartir no solo golosinas sabrosas, sino tambi\u00e9n para compartir el trato eterno que es nuestra salvaci\u00f3n en Jesucristo. \u00danase a m\u00ed para orar por la gente de B\u00e9lgica para que tenga corazones abiertos para recibir el amor de Jes\u00fas. \u00bfSe asociar\u00e1 conmigo y ser\u00e1 parte de esta gran historia que se desarrolla en Amberes, B\u00e9lgica?<\/em> <\/p>
