Our Ministry has been serving in India Since 2006. We have partnered with an area India Pastor, Dr. John Willmott of Pioneer Intercultural Services. Every year, we bring a missions team with us to South India to serve the underprivileged Poor, Blind and disabled, Widows ministry and Children who live in the slums. We provide Clothing, Food and supplies. We also provide training and workshops for area Church leaders as well as Nurses and Teachers in area schools in South India.
