As we celebrate the birth of our savior Jesus Christ, the bringer of light to a darkened world, let us remember to pray for those in India who are still in darkness, and who don’t know Him.  Of 1.21 Billion people, over 1 billion have never heard the Gospel once. Pray for the orphans – Over half the worlds orphans live in India. pray for children sold into slavery to pay family debts and for those who are victims of the sex trafficking and child labor. For the malnourished and sick with out fresh water or adequate food.

Praying for the Church in India
Pray for the laborers – for God to continue to raise up, provide for and protect the local pastors. For the continued spreading and growth of house/cell groups. For the distribution of God’s word in the native languages not just written, but thru down loadable aps for cell phones, solar powered audio devices. TV and radio.

Global Hope India
As we look back over the past year we are thanking and praising God for all He has done for and thru GHI. Looking ahead we continue to pray for God’s protection, and direction, His guidance and discernment for each step we take. Pray for the team heading to India the end of this month, for our village development projects. Pray for people to catch the vision and step forward to help support and be involved in GHI
