From the desk of the General Secretary

Dearly Beloved,

Wishing you all a very blessed and fruitful New Year

2021. As we prayerfully step into this New Year, each one

of us has a unique opportunity to partner with the totally

rewarding and productive labour which is well pleasing to

our Master. As we are called to be a blessing to the people

around us, let us continue to be the salt of the earth and the

light of the world and bless our fellow beings in all practical

ways possible.

I wish and pray that the upcoming year will enable us

to bear lasting fruits which would go on to yield rich

dividends in His heavenly kingdom.

As regards Stewards Association in India (SAI) Pilot

Program during these Covid 19 pandemic times, Operation

Hunger has reached many thousands of people across

India, delivering food, provisions, and essential supplies.

Our mission is to deliver aid to desperately poor and needy

people who are not sure of how to find their next meal.

More than

30,000

Families have Received Monthly Food, Provisions and Essentials

About

2000

Families

Assisted with Medical Expenses, Education

Needs, Housing, and Covid Expenses

24 States

Reached with Essential Aid

More than nine months have passed since our first

distribution drive and it thrills our hearts to see God's

people step up in myriad ways to help others in the family

of God.

People from all walks of life are giving generously to

support friends and neighbors in need. The spirit and

mission of Operation Hunger continue to spread. Indeed,

God is doing "so much more than all we ask or imagine."

Our hearts are encouraged by the many who have joined

with us to feed the hungry and provide for the basic

needs of the poor.

In this update, we would also like to focus on to some of our Hospitals and Medical

Programs and their work in these challenging times.

Medical & Healthcare Needs

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed a heavy burden on our hospitals and other medical

facilities, especially in rural areas. Doctors, Nurses, and Healthcare Workers continue to

serve their local communities with selfless zeal, despite the risks associated with this

illness.

Improving community health remains a key focus of our hospitals in Narsapur and

Ambajipeta in Andhra Pradesh and Sankeshwar in Karnataka. We see a growing need

for qualified and committed Doctors, other medical and non-medical staff as well as the

latest in diagnostic and medical equipments.

Our hospitals and medical programs need urgent

support during these unprecedented times to

meet the rising patient load that is expected to

double in the coming months.

God has established our HIV and Leprosy

Hospitals as beacons of hope in the local

community. They play a vital role by caring for

those who are often marginalized and ostracized,

sometimes by their own families.

Your involvement in supporting Medical Work in

remote parts of our Country helps us bring hope

and healing to those who need it most.

Every day, we are

thrilled to hear of

Individuals,

Communities and

Assemblies

reaching out to help

the needy among

them.

"When many of our Assemblies

and fellow brethren contributed to

Stewards Care which catered to a

portion of our needs, we have

experienced the abundance of

our Lord's provisions to the point

where we needed no more"

Finally brethren, it is our ardent promise to all our dear Brothers and Sisters that we will

be with you, as a constant companion in your pain and need and fulfill the responsibility

which the Lord has entrusted us. Whenever you feel the need of a helping hand, just

remember to Mail us stating your trouble and be rest assured that we are always

available, appointed by the Master to be at your service.

Also, a reminder, these are the end times and so be sure to utilize every opportunity to

serve our Lord and invest in His Kingdom by gladly serving His people. Let us

wholeheartedly unite together to stand in the gap and partner in this wonderful work of

our Lord.

“If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need but shows no compassion - how can God’s love be in that person ?” ( Holy Bible –

1 John 3: 17 - New Living Translation )

How can I help

HOW CAN I HELP?

who struggle to receive even a single meal

areas braving dangerous conditions

For godly and service-minded doctors, nurses,

and other medical staff.

pandemic conditions.

We welcome you to partner with us alongside

thousands of others to be a part of this mission.

their next meal.

feeding thousands of starving families across
