Hello my brothers and sisters in Christ its good to write you all once again. Just a little update of what we were able to do as CGI Ministries this month.

As a ministry one of the principles we always follow is working with local churches. We form a network get acquainted with the local pastors and have a strong relationship with them. We pray for them and their church and support them in what ever way we can and extend the Kingdom of God together.

It has been raining heavily here in India as it is our monsoon season and lots of homes and lives were affected and came to standstill by the rain. Pastor Caleb, his church and myself have been working with a people group who call themselves as Rag Pickers. They make their living by picking rags, plastic’s, metal from the garbage and selling them to the waste paper mart guys. They live on the small huts made of plastic sheets by the road sides neglected by the community as well as the government. Due to the rain the homes were washed off and some roofs were leaking and were not able to go out for work.

We as a ministry were able to provide 5 kilo’s of rice and 1 kilo of dhal for about thirty families with the guidance of pastor Caleb. We were able to talk to them and pray for them ,they are such loving people who are thirsty for the word of God and real Love.

Just minutes after we gave the rice one of the huts were a blind couple live caught on fire and burnt a portion of the hut. Rest of the community helped to contain the fire and extinguish it before it spread to the rest of the huts. We bought a new plastic sheet to cover the burnt area and fixed it for them.

This is just one small part of the great need here in kanchipuram district. Please pray for the affected and for pastor Caleb and his ministry. If you want to support financially please click on the following link. Donation Forms.

Mathew25: 34, 35 ,40
Then the King will say to those on the right, ‘Come you who are blessed by my Father: take your inheritance, the Kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world’.

For i was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,………………

The King will reply, ‘ I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for ME.’

God Bless.

Take time to look at these pictures.
