Programs: This entityy remained in furtherence of its exempt objective this year by maintaining the existing orphanages, homes for the destitutes, feeding centers, village school with 400 kids, borewells, diary farms, tractors and other areas as stated in prior years. It continued the supply of wheat, rice and lentils among the poorest people in 7 states and the distribution of essential supplies to the most needy people who accepted jesus as their savior. This year it expanded disciple training center for pastors from gujarat other 5 more states in india for the native pastors. They will be trained in bible and sent to the mission field after the training. We started womens training and benevolent objective programe in 3 states in india and planning to expand to other states of india.

domestic travel, visiting churches and donors for conducting awareness meetings and communicating the needs were conducted during the year as was in the past. Teams of pastors, evangelists, bible teachers and missionaries visited various states of india and conducted crusades, evangelistic meetings, bible conferences, native missionary training. Periodically these international travels were needed to boost the missionaries and believers in india. Ground transportation in chartered buses, cabs, and other lines were used for conducting the meetings, conferences and training.

these expenses include mission field expenses and convention tents, carpets, stage, audio settings and light settings, and distribution of food packages to the the participants of the conventions, meetings and training. Printing pamphlets, gospel materials and notices were included in these program expenses. Telephone and cell phone charges were incurred for cordinating these events and meetings in india and in the usa.

missionary support was regularly given to pasotrs for enabling them to work for the gospel without diverting their attention from evangelization. Mission filed expenses and gifts of dress, canned foods, candies, snacks, cell phones for communications, bibles, other supplies for the kids going to school to visting pastors were made to enable them to supply this to the poor beleivers in the unreached areas of the mission field. Other gifts such as school supplies, toys, candies, cookies, musical instruments for churches, laterns, wrist watches for ministries were made. This we experienced tougher sanctions from the anti-christian local and self government in some states because of the political change.
