I am all about what can I do to impact the most people for Christ. I am sure that is true of many of you as well. One of those places that we can have a great impact for a small amount of money is in India. People are coming to know Christ at an amazing rate, causing a violent reaction from the threatened Hindu Community. Those who have been subjugated through the caste system are now coming to Jesus by the tens of thousands.
We can maximize what God is doing for a pretty small investment. At a cost of 30/month a person can provide support a indigenous pastor, providing food and clothing for that pastor’s family. A typical church would be 100-200 people. Some are larger, as much as 400-500. These are either tribal peoples (a small geographic locale with a distinct dialect) or dalits (a low caste group) or outback caste people (so low that they are outside the caste system). Each of these pastors goes through a Bible school in Hyderabad. Every month each church provides sarees and soap to its widows.
If you are interested in participating we simply ask for a twelve month commitment. Check out the Timberlake website this week http://www.tlcf.org/. You can go to the online giving button and indicate India.
