My Work

I long to see nationals plant churches in their countries and receive theological training to help them pastor their people well. To that end, I work for an organization based in India called Vision Nationals whose aim is to do just that – to plant churches throughout Asia and train up nationals to lead and pastor those churches. As well, they are involved in ministries to orphans and widows. Here are the seven facets of Vision Nationals in India:

Master’s Fellowship supports around 150 church planters in rural India through this church planting ministry.

Leadership Training Programs provide training and mentorship to rural pastors through quarterly teaching events we host on campus.

Master’s College of Theology is located on our campus and provides 40 students from all over India, Nepal, and Thailand with a solid Biblical education. Many of these students return to their hometowns as church planters.

Master’s Home for Children houses 110 children on campus, some from very poor families and others who have been orphaned, and provides for their spiritual, physical, emotional and educational needs.

Master’s Public School runs from our campus to educate the children in our home. It is also open to poor children in our surrounding area to provide them access to a first-class education.

Ashraya, our ministry to widows, provides 25 widows with medical care and basic needs.

Life Medical Clinics are held in slum areas around the city as well as on campus to provide medical care and medicines to those who could otherwise not afford it.

As I work with Vision Nationals, I am humbled by John 4:38 where Jesus says, “I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.” The labor for Vision Nationals began before I was born, yet God has placed me in this ministry at a time of reaping. As the ministry increases, so do the practical needs. My role in the ministry includes directing international relations, traveling and speaking in the U.S. on behalf of Vision Nationals, leading trips to India and assisting with State-side administration.

It is exciting to be part of this ministry that is changing lives in a real and lasting way, both for this life and the next.
