Godliness

Greetings Ministry Partners,

We praise God for His presence in our lives. A life in missions takes a godly attitude and approach. How fast things move is not up to us nor the time that it takes to get there and do it. We plan, we hope, and we trust while giving the Lord the hardest part of bringing forth the fruit. There are moments of honor as well as sacrifice in His service. While the path is laid, we do well by capturing the moment. Godliness, the display of being an image bearer of our Lord.



What we share with you are pictures in time. God has saved and empowered our team across the Subcontinent so that lives and activities would glorify His name. I praise God for the simplicity of the universal Gospel that changes hearts. There is one Savior, Jesus, who is enough to resolve man's depravity and punishment. Missions is taking one message, exalting God's name as He works through sent people who have laid down their lives. Therefore, those receiving the message can also receive His spirit and be godly.

We appreciate you.

We praise God for His grace! CCI is taking the Gospel and strengthening the Church in Pakistan. They are persecuted, but they are standing firm in the Gospel.

Testimony from Pakistan

"Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ. I am a CCI student. The courses are truly blessed and have helped to change my pastoral life. It's providing me with very good biblical study and encourages me to grow. The training has straightened my teaching and preaching, by the grace of God. In Pakistan, we thank CCI very much."

Bangladesh

Pictured is Pastor S teaching Course 9 (Church History) with 14 students. A God’s Financial Principles (GFP) seminar was conducted among 28 people. When God’s people apply biblical principles to their finances, then they will be good stewards and care about serving God.

Pastor D is teaching Course 8 (Teaching Methods) to 4 groups. The students have time to teach during sessions, where we can recognize their level of understanding and it builds their confidence. They are looking forward to graduating later this year. Several will begin new classes.

Testimony from Bangladesh

"Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ. I am a student of CCI and I never expected to be able to do Bible courses from my home. Before attending the CCI class I had no biblical knowledge. I am learning sound doctrine through the classes. It is a great blessing for my spiritual life that I have recognized true biblical teaching and knowledge through the CCI class. Pray for me so that I can regularly attend the training, complete the CCI class, and help my church. After finishing the CCI class, I can join in the Great Commission. Thanks!"

India

The people are growing spiritually across northern India. Teacher T is teaching Course 2: Old Testament Survey. Teacher is teaching Course 5: Bible Doctrine. Both of them enjoy teaching and using their gifts very much.

There were two graduations conducted by CCI India in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh with 40 students. Pray for the next steps in their lives. We pray for new classes to be started.

Testimony from India

"Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I thank God for the opportunity that the Lord has given me to join the CCI class. I never thought that I would be able to learn the Word of God in my local church. My friends and I are enjoying learning the wonderful courses that are easily available in our own language. Thank you for the CCI staff, leaders and teachers who have been working hard to expand the kingdom of God in all the world with sound teaching. I pray for you all. Be blessed!"

Nepal

There were a few graduations in the month of May! How fitting it was since school also was finishing.

Testimony from Nepal

"I am a full-time pastor in for 10 years. I heard about CCI Nepal three years ago. It's hard and challenging to serve churches these days without biblical knowledge and skills. Especially, there are so many false teachings and teachers. It makes me very excited to learn God's Word and to be equipped for His kingdom. The training sharpens me in many ways. I'm learning sound doctrine and I teach truth to my flock. I can understand the Bible correctly and prepare to share biblical messages in our churches. Our churches are now growing in quality and quantity. Our churches are very aware and careful about false teachers through this training. They can easily recognize what is biblical and what is not. I am very thankful to CCI Nepal for bringing this training to my own community. I had a passion to learn the Word of God, but there was no training available in my area. I would have had to leave my ministry and family for training for at least three years. So, this training is a countless blessing to me. I hope many other pastors and leaders will take this opportunity through CCI Nepal in the future."
