Hello,
Greetings and Peace to you in the name of Jesus Christ.
We have planned to conduct Gospel Meetings at 4 places during the month of May 2007. Due to several reasons we have conducted these Public Meetings only at two places i.e., Munagala and Ratnampeta.
Gospel Meetings at MunagalaVillage:
We have conducted 2 day public Gospel meetings at Munagala, a small village nearby Korukonda on 18th and 19th of May 2007. One of our IBS students and a youth member grown up from Korukonda Congregation, B.V. Raghavulu B.A. L.L.B. of Munagala Village who is working as Advocate and is inactive in Lord’s ministry so far, has come forward to conduct these meetings in his native place. He and brother Moses Babu talks to the village elders and get permission to conduct meetings at a village public place. They get the pamphlets printed and a wide publicity was given. They have arranged a big Dias and public addressing system. All the village elders (non Christians), local public are invited.
We planned to conduct the meetings in two sessions a day. But due to heavy day time temperatures (40 to 50 Degrees Celsius), we confined to night meetings. At an average of 120 people are attended. Most of them are non Christians.
We have selected the topic “what is the kingdom of God?” and “what is the role of the Church?”. Bro. K. Moses Babu, K.A.V.I. Solmon Raju, P. Ratna Raju, G. Kiran Kumar, M. Prem Kishore and I Preached the word of God for two days. Five people agreed to born again. Bro. Solmon Raju conducted Baptisms. Brother Raghava is expressed his willingness to start the new congregation at Munagala village. Brother Raghava reported that he conducted worship last Sunday.
Please pray for this new Preacher and the new congregation at Munagala Village.
Gospel Meetings at Ratnampeta:
We have conducted 2 day public Gospel meetings at Ratnampeta of Rajahmundry which is the congregation at my present native on 28th and 29th of May 2007. We have just finished our 2nd day meeting. We have invited all the Christians (from denominations) and non Christians in this area.
Our young Preachers as well as our Sunday school children sing wonderful songs. At an average of 150 people were attended. We displayed 20 scripture banners at the site of the public meeting.
We have selected the topic “What is Death?” and “What is after death?”. K. Moses Babu, P. Ratna Raju, G. Kiran Kumar, P.Sundara Rao and I preached the word of God for these two days.
Please pray for the ministry of our Lord in this area.
Thank you very much.
Yours brother in Christ,
