New believers share stories of transformation

Raminder baptized Sangita and six other new believers.March 17, 2008

Seven men and women are praising the name of Jesus in India's northern state of Punjab after hearing the Gospel from a Mission India Church Planter.

Each new believer has a unique story of transformation, says the church planter, Ramindar.

But they all testify to the power of Jesus to rescue them from darkness.

Here are some of their stories:

Kanval first witnessed the Gospel's transforming power when her husband became a believer. Longing for the same joy she saw in her husband, Kanval also accepted Jesus as her Savior.

Sangita had lost hope of ever being blessed by the idols she was raised to worship. Then Ramindar told her about Jesus' sacrifice on the cross so that Sangita could receive eternal life. She joyfully embraced Him as Savior and Lord.

Harjinder was a drug addict. His wife became a believer and she prayed day and night for God to save her husband. Today, Harjinder is free of his addictions and has placed his trust in Jesus.

Janam was plagued with chronic illnesses. The physical demands of his job were draining his energy. Then Janam attended a prayer meeting led by Ramindar, and the believers prayed over his weak body. God answered the prayers and Janam is praising his Savior for healing him.

Pray for Kanval, Sangita, Harjinder, Janam, and the other new believers in Ramindar's village, as they learn to trust God for their needs.
