We are the fruit of Swedish Churches.... thank you for your prayers and contribution for our life.

These words came last week from Pastor Aman Khan, Odlabari, WB, India. I met Aman and his brother the first time 25-30 years ago in
Barhaj, UP, India. Now he have been to Chiang Mai for an international conference.
When I regretted that I could not meet him, he says: We are the fruit of
Swedish Churches .... Thank you for your prayers and contribution for our life.
First we must say: Thank you for coworking and partnering with us in the work. To do missions is indeed a cooperation.
And with all humility we thank God for
everything that the Swedish congregations has done and are doing in mission. Many
have met God and have become mission leaders.
Some projects have failed, but many initiatives continue in specially 3 ways:
a) In the same way. The churches and the projects continue
in the same way year after year.
b) With new local initiatives. The work did very well
a specific time, but ... the grain fell into the ground and died. And new more local plants come up. It all becomes a multiplication in the Kingdom of God.
c) Individuals. Many may not plant a new church or new projects but personally they carry what they have received, use it
and some train others who train others .... in the community.
The best is when we convey the relationship we
have with our living God. Then others also hear from heaven and .... they too become multipliers
under the leadership of God.

Projects and institutions comes and goes, but
people who love God and the Church of God lives on. And they become local multipliers.
