From The Editor

I’ve recently returned from a visit to India withthe Open Your Heart Tour in November 2004with 24 others representing six differentchurches in the US. We each have stories totell of how God moved in and through usindividually, as a team, within Chapel MissionsIndia, and the nation of India. God neverseems to do just a small thing. When He opensour eyes, we see how that one small thingimpacts something greater. I understand morefully why the Bible exhorts us to “not despisethe day of small things.”

In this issue are stories gathered from ourtrip–things we saw firsthand, miracles wewitnessed, people we met, and people wetouched with our hands. We went so we couldcome back and tell you what we have seenand heard–what we’ve experienced forourselves. And we are here to say that God isreal, He is moving, healing, growing Hischurch, bringing joy, and setting people free.He is doing exactly what He said He hadcome to do in the sixty-first chapter of Isaiah.

God is great! The Body of Christ is great! Thechildren and the workers in India are great!The needs are great! Please continue to prayabout the depth of your involvement in thisministry. God is being seen in a very, verydark land, but the work is not yet finished.While there are many more souls to beharvested, I’m not disheartened because Iknow that He uses small things – the littlethings and the weak things – to bring aboutHis purposes. We at Chapel Missions Indiado not despise the day of small things, for it’sin those small things that we see the fingerprintsof the Almighty God.

people who no one else has taken the gospel to. Every village andslum we are in is the result of this one main thing: seeking andserving the lost.

Let me ask you a question. Could you stand back and watch ablind man who is obviously lost? He has lost his bearings and ismisdirected. He thinks he’s nearing a bus station that will take himhome but, in fact, he’s walking into life-threatening danger. Couldyou just look away and not try to help him? Of course not! At firsthe may be resistant – even resentful. He’s sure he’s not lost. Butyour pursuit to save him from certain death is not an option. Inthe same way, motivated by the love of God, we must seek outand save those who are headed toward certain and eternal doom.

To seek and save what is lost is a very simple motivation, but it’svery deep – as deep as God’s heart. Whether it’s in a distant jungleor a crowded, disease-infested city slum, this love demands thatwe seek and save what is lost. This shared passion with our preciousfriends of Chapel Missions India has made this pursuit of the lostunbelievably wonderful. Thank you for your love for God and thelost of India. Our hearts have been united with His.

In His Grace,

In every area of life it is essential that the main thing remains themain thing. It’s true in everything from successful relationships tosuccess in sporting events, and it’s certainly true when it comes tobeing used as a vessel of God in this fallen world. We who areserving Christ through CMI often ask, “What is the main point?”The answer has come back over and over again very clearly in asimplified statement made by Jesus when He said, “I have come toseek and save that which is lost.” To seek implies that we searchout those who are lost. This is what defines the collective efforts ofChapel Missions India and is why we go to places seeking out

A Word from Pastor Bob

“For as we have many members in one body, butall the members do not have the same function,so we, being many, are one body in Christ andindividually members of one another. Having thengifts differing according to the grace that is givento us, let us use them…” Romans 12:4-6

Don’t you love being a part of God’s family? Isure do. It’s the great joy of my life! God certainlycaught me by surprise on my first trip to India, forsomehow, I forgot that God was at work all overthe world, not just in our little community. Iremember thinking, “Lord, every one of yourchildren should have an opportunity to see whatyou are doing in other parts of the world –especially India.”

As the ministry in India began to develop, weconsidered taking people with us, but because ofour work in the slums and the difficulties of thetrip, we often decided against it. Today all of thathas changed. As our church has grown, and theministry in India has expanded beyond belief, wehave been able to take teams with us. Throughbetter preparation on our part, and especially withthe help of our Indian brothers and sisters, it’sgone very well. This past November we took 25people on our 4th Open Your Heart Tour.

It is exciting to watch God bring a team of verydiverse people together with the same desire ofheart – to share His love and Word with thebeautiful people of India. A large group can geta lot accomplished, which is always our prayer.Traveling with a team of 25 people can have itschallenges – we just weren’t sure how everythingwould go, but it became obvious that as eachmember did their part, God brought this grouptogether. There is nothing more wonderful thanwatching a family work together as a team. It lefta lasting impression on my heart. How beautifulit is to experience Romans 12:4-6 with my churchfamily.

Please don’t ever think that you have nothing togive – it’s just not true. God has placed you in Hisfamily and has a very special purpose just for you.Pray about joining us on our next Open Your HeartTour. We’d love for you to become part of God’steam reaching India for Christ.

God bless you.

In His Most Precious Love,

Raja

Summer 2005 3

Nathanael said to Him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip

called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” Nathanael answered and said to Him,

“Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” John 1:48-49

– Under the Tree, I Saw You

Rajani (pronounced Raja – nee) is an 18-year-old man fromNochikuppam, Tamil Nadu. Since he was a young boy he’s beenclimbing coconut palms fetching the native nut for passers-by, andtending goats in the fields near his village home – earning a few rupeesfor his efforts.

In the Fall of 2003 Pastor Ernest Updike of Calvary Chapel Boise wasvisiting Nochikuppam with Pastor Guna and some other visitorsfrom the States. Chapel Missions India’s Home of Hope forchildren five and under is located near this village. Whilewalking about, the group ran across a young man whooffered to cut them down some fresh coconut from anearby tree. As Ernest watched the boy shimmy upthe tall tree he was struck by the similarity ofappearance the boy had to his own son back homein Garden Valley, Idaho. “My boy loves to climb treestoo, and he even looked a bit like him,” Ernestremembers. “I gave the boy some money for thecoconut he gave me,” but the father, an alcoholic,immediately took the money. Later Ernest found Rajaniand gave him a bit more money to keep for himself tosay “Thank you.” Ernest’s heart was moved for this youngman.

“What is your name? Do you go to school?” he asked, through Guna.Rajani did not.

“Would you like to?” Rajani indicated that he would like that verymuch.

Ernest spoke to Guna and asked if CMI could somehow help the boy,but it was time for the visitors to move on and for Guna to return hometo Bangalore. With all of the other pressing needs and duties of theministry, the boy slipped from Guna’s mind. Two months later, whilevisiting Nochikuppam again, Guna saw Rajani – his memory was stirredand his heart convicted. Remembering Ernest’s request to take care of

the boy, Guna asked him once again if he wanted to learn to read andwrite. “I saw that the boy had a genuine interest, so we asked permissionfor him to come to Bangalore to work at the Prayer Garden.”

His first few months with Chapel Missions India were spent workingon the grounds repairing things and helping wherever he was needed– all the while, learning about the Lord. Through the examples of the

Christian brothers who became his friends and from daily Biblestudy and prayer with the boys at the Home of Hope, Rajani’s

belief in Jesus Christ grew. His character was also tested.He remained cheerful, helpful, and eager to learn allhe could.

He now reads proudly from his Bible with a shy smileupon his face. When asked, Rajani says, “I likeworking at the Prayer Garden, and I am glad not totend goats or climb trees anymore.” He’s acceptedChrist as his Savior and “is very motivated to workand learn. He has shared Jesus with many people

from his village and brings them to church,” Gunasays.

God used the eyes of Pastor Ernest from Garden Valley,Idaho to see something in this young man from Nochikuppam,

India. God’s ways are infinitely more mysterious than we can everknow. Because Ernest heeded the tug of the Holy Spirit within him,Rajani’s life was changed forever. Ernest hopes to meet Rajani again,not as a stranger, but as a brother in Christ. Just as God saw Nathanaelunder the fig tree, He saw Rajani in the coconut palm and called himout to follow Him. And Like Nathanael, Rajani has said, “Jesus, Youare the Son of God.”

“‘I gave the boysome money for the

coconut he gave me,”but the father, an

alcoholic, immediatelytook the money.…”

Tom Salove readily admits a trip to India’sslums wasn’t his first choice in traveldestinations. Recently retired after 33 yearsas a high school teacher and baseball coach,Tom had seen enough of third-world lifeduring the Viet Nam War. When his wife,a practicing CPA, suggested a short-term

mission trip, Tom was less thanenthusiastic.

“I didn’t push it,” Geneverecalls.

She didn’t have to. Godwanted Tom in India.

“We were sitting in churchlast Easter and the Lordchanged my heart,” Tomsays. “At that point,” Geneveexp l a in s , “we we reinterested in going on a

mission. We would have goneanywhere. It just so happened that theNovember tour of India was the nextavailable trip.”

While the trek involved a long flightand quick immersion in to strangesurroundings, both Tom and Geneveagree that living conditions on the tourwere comfortable and they were wellprepared for the cultural changes by theorientation meetings conducted beforethe tour.

Nothing, however, could ready them forthe way God’s powerful work in Indiawould forever alter their lives.

Prior to departure, the Saloves, who arethe parents of two grown sons, decidedto support a little Indian girl. Malina just

turned six. She came to live at the Home of Hope in Krishnagiri last year.Her mother died; her father remarried. The new wife didn’t want her. It’s

a familiar story. Despite enduring abandonment, our Home of Hopechildren are filled with a genuine joy.

“To see how happy those children are with their few simple belongingsand the love they feel is remarkable,” Geneve explains. “Guna and PastorBob are such examples of what God can do with willing hearts.”

Geneve notes that “Zechariah 4:6 hangs over every Calvary Chapelchurch door in India. [‘It’s not by might, nor by power but by my spirit.’]I think as a result of the trip I’ve become more aware of how true thatis. I realize how a little here can go such a long way over there.”

During their two-week stay, the Saloves visited children’s homes, churchesin slums, and those in villages so remote, the lifestyle harkens back toBible times. Everywhere, they saw God’s hand at work reshaping livesand opening doors. In Koppal, a predominantly Muslim communitywhere Calvary evangelists are frequently attacked and harassed, theyencountered an incredible opportunity.

“The government was so impressed with what Chapel Missions India wasdoing in the area that they offered to sell us more than two acres at athird of the going rate,” Tom explains.

Land is very expensive in India. This ground would allow the expansionof the Bible College and medical outreach. It was a great location, on aroad, with water already in place. There was just one catch. The fullprice—$22,500 dollars—had to be paid by January 1, 2005. CMI hadno funds available, and only six weeks to find the money. Nonetheless,the offer was accepted. Tom, Geneve, and the rest of the American teamjoined with the native evangelists in praying for the ability to make goodon the agreement.

As soon as they returned to Boise, Tom got busy. Years spent raising fundsfor American Legion and high school baseball gave him a ready abilityto ask for financial assistance. Within threeweeks, the money to purchase the landwas in hand. Tom was able touniquely benefit the Indianoutreach. At the same time,India changed Tom andGeneve’s lives forever.

Geneve explains that since they’vereturned home, nothing has been the same.“I never thought we had a problem with materialism. But going to Indiahas changed the way I look at things. We are all so spoiled and we don’teven know it. I’ll be shopping and I ask myself, ‘Do I really need this,or do I just want it?’ Typically, I just want it. Going to India made mewant to be more open to God and what He wants me to do in my ownlife.”

For now, they’re busy helping to raise building funds for the expandedBible College and medical ministry in Koppal, and looking forward toreturning to India.

“I’d recommend the trip for anyone,” Tom says. “I’d go back in an instant.You know their national games are soccer and cricket. I was able to showthem a little about baseball. Now, I am looking to start some teams overthere.”

India, it seems, will benefit from the Saloves’ unique abilities for a longtime to come.

God Answers Prayer for CMI Koppal

by Lauren Phillips

Calvary Chapel’s Koppal medical outreach is located in the Indian stateof northern Karnataka – an eight-hour train ride north of Bangalore. Thesmall town of Koppal sits on a major north-south thoroughfare wheretrucks rumble through non-stop. Karnataka has been in a severe droughtfor years; the ground is parched, the roads dusty, and the temperaturessoar. Namaneeth Kumar and his family live there directing the BibleCollege, numerous Children’s Centers, and five churches he planted inthe area. He personallyserves as pastor to eachof these village churches;his weekends are busy,to say the very least. Thisquiet, unassuming man’simpressive goal is toreach each of the 70villages that reside withina 100-kilometer radius ofKoppal with the GoodNews of Jesus Christ. Anexpanding medical outreach seems a likely tool the Lord is using to dojust that.

Early on in his ministry Namaneeth recognized a recurrent universal needin each of the villages he would visit. People were plagued with illnessand injury. Because there is no medical facility nearby and certainly notransportation for the sick to the nearest hospital, people suffered fromthings that could be easily treated such as asthma or bone fractures, tomore serious maladies such as tuberculosis or AIDS.

“We have found that AIDS has become a real threat to the population,”Namaneeth says. Ignorance of the disease and its dangers is prevalentamong the villagers. With the aid of the print shop on the Bible College

campus, evangelists distributepamphlets printed in two local languagesdescribing the dangers of AIDS, its symptoms, the way it iscontracted, and what one can do to get help.

The physical and spiritual needs of the people were obvious, but meetingthe need seemed overwhelming, so Namaneeth turned to the Lord inprayer. For four years, he and his team did all they could by visiting thesick and transporting the more serious cases with nothing more than acouple of small motorcycles and a dilapidated jeep. As another meansof outreach into the villages, the Bible College students and evangelists(the school’s graduates) had been having great success showing The JesusFilm to villagers even though it was time consuming reaching the populationwith just a television. Illiterate people were being introduced to this Jesusthe missionaries had been talking about.

While they continued to be faithful in sharing the gospel, providingmedical assistance, and offering AIDS awareness in the area, God respondedto their prayer for helpthrough a church inGermany. The churchhad money to givetoward work in themiss ion f i e ld andcontacted Pastor Guna,director of ChapelMissions India. Their onlystipulation was that themoney was to be usedspeci f ical ly for anambulance! Guna knewr i g h t w h e r e t h eambulance was to go – to Namaneeth’s ministry in Koppal. But God’sprovision was much bigger than even that! While arrangements werebeing made for the transfer of money from Germany to India the valueof the euro increased, thus increasing the amount of money CMI actuallyreceived. It was just enough to pay for a projector, large screen, andVCR – other items that Namaneeth had asked the Lord to provide.

Now, instead of watching films crowded around a small television,the entire community can sit together and watch not only The Jesus

Film but other films about health, AIDS awareness education, andanything else that will help these communities

become whole and healthy bothphysically and spiritually.

“The physical andspiritual needs of the

people were obvious butmeeting the need seemed

overwhelming…”

“…God through Hismercy and grace

responded to theirprayer for help througha church in Germany.”

In November, 2004 the Open Your Heart Tour team found themselvestraveling through ancient ruins, fields of sunflowers, red earth, palm trees,rice fields, jungles, and temples to the villages of Hosamudalpura andOld Mudalupa – neighboring communities. The team was privileged tobe a part of the inauguration of the new ambulance – fully equippedwith a radio, lights, sirens, and medical equipment. Mary Susanna,Namaneeth’s wife, works in a government-run tuberculosis clinic. Sheand her husband used her connections there to stimulate local authoritiesinto action. Government volunteer doctors and nurses came to the two

villages to examine individuals and prescribe medications andvitamins. AIDS and TB finger prick

screening tests were conducted in arelatively sterile environment and

with confidentiality in the back of the new ambulance. “The doctors onlycome once every two years, we will come once a month and follow upwith these people. We are giving life to the government program,” PastorGuna states.

Through the continual concern and care for the people of the surroundingvillages of Koppal, CMI is finding their way into the hearts of the children,families, community leaders, and even the local government. They areseeing God’s love and provision for them in very practical ways in muchthe same way that Jesus met both mankind’s physical and spiritualmaladies while He walked the face of the planet. CMI Koppal trulyexhibits the heart of God for His children.

“We are hard pressed on every side but notcrushed…We are persecuted but notforsaken, struck down but not destroyed.”

“We’re going to look at the book of Genesis and examples from the lifeof Abraham – a life consecrated to God,” begins Pastor Bob. “God hascalled you like Abraham to give great sacrifice. Like Abraham, many ofyou have left your country, your family,” Bob says in simply spokenEnglish – his interpreter paying attention to each idea, being careful totranslate accurately.

“Pastor Guna was a Christian, but his eyes were on material things. ThenGod called him. It is difficult when your family doesn’t support yourministry, or there’s not much money, or even worse, God has called youinto a slum! God promised Abraham that He would make him a blessingto all people but first he had to leave the comfort of his home. Abrahamobeyed. Brother Guna obeyed the call of God on his life. You are herebecause of this obedience.

“The slums seem barren like Sarah’s womb. God is testing us in this dayof barrenness. Will you believe the promise of God, or will you help Godby ‘making’ something happen? You may wonder, ‘how will my workgrow?’ Remember, God can do in one day what you cannot do in alifetime. Wait for the hand of God. Be careful. Don’t compromise. DoGod’s work God’s way.”

The Word of God is so practical and is piercing my heart as I sit andlisten. “I’m hearing you Lord. Along with my brothers and sisters I amlistening, and I, too, want to learn of this life of consecration…”

Bob continues, “God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son and now Godasks us, ‘How much are you willing to give up? The thing you love themost?’ Remember that God says that every promise He’s made He willalso fulfill. Even so, He tests us. Who do we love more? Have you everwondered why some have the blessings of God and others do not? Wemust ask ourselves, ‘Have I left everything at the foot of God’s throne?’Jesus gave up His throne in heaven. He did what the Father asked Himto do.”

Pastor Bob begins to wrap up his message of encouragement by remindingus “that we have the treasure of heaven – Jesus Christ – in earthen vesselsthat the excellence of the power of our ministries may be of God andnot of us. We are hard pressed on every side but not crushed…We arepersecuted but not forsaken, struck down but not destroyed. Give Godyour life and you can expect, by the promises of God’s Word, the blessingsof heaven.”

I look around and see the gathering nodding their heads from side toside – a uniquely Indian gesture. Their nod signifies their agreement andI know these men and women who live on the front lines of faith arebeing encouraged by God’s Word. I come away with a deeper sense ofwhat true and lasting servant-hood is birthed from – things like death,sacrifice, and humility. It’s birthed out of the nature and example of JesusChrist – a life fully consecrated to the Father.

Chapel Missions India’s annual Pastor’s Conference was held in Novemberof 2004 at the Prayer Garden. The simple one-room center which isnormally a part of the boys’ Home of Hope was now full of men andtheir wives. They came for a time of rest and refreshment, fellowship,and teaching. The Prayer Garden sits upon a rise overlooking rolling hillsand beautiful verdant pastures. Sitting at the back of the room and feelinglike an intruder – a bit out of place, but privileged to witness this gathering– my eyes trick me. I look around the room and see a group of averagemen and women. Except for – he women’s clothing – colorful sarisintricately wrapped around each one, they look like ordinary, every-daypeople chatting and smiling, waiting for a meeting to begin. But thisparticular group is anything but ordinary. These men and their wivesexemplify lives in the process of becoming totally and completely givenover to God. These “average” men and women are the people the Lordhas sent to extend His love, grace, and above all, His forgiveness tocommunities full of lost souls and believers now numbering in thethousands. I’m in awe. They humble me.

Before the service begins I think about how much they must appreciatecoming out into this beautiful countryside to be with fellow believers.No hostility, no threats, no hard looks as they pass by, just love, friendship,and fellowship in the truest sense of the word…Fel’low-ship’ n. 1. com-panionship 2. a mutual sharing 3. a group of people with the sameinterests. Most of these people have served the Lord for years in thevillages and slums where the outcasts of Indian society live – peoplewithout caste or honor in the eyes of their countrymen. They all liveamong many who are hostile to the gospel of Jesus Christ and they doit day in and day out. I’ve been where they live. I’ve walked through thestreets of several slums in the city of Bangalore. It’s not a place whereone would “choose” to live. What a joy they are to watch now as theygather together here at the Prayer Garden.

The men and women eat apart from one another at meal time. The womensit on the ground in circles, laughing and sharing their news of the day.The men walk arm in arm, a sign of true friendship among the masculineof India. They rise well before dawn, and before long their prayer andpraise rise to their Heavenly Father like the morning incense of OldTestament temple worship. Sweeter yet, because this worship comes fromHis children’s hearts – bringing joy, I’m sure, to His.

Pastor Bob is here to deliver God’s Word to the expectant gathering. Hespeaks about being set apart in total dedication and sacrifice to God –consecration.

One life lost is a tragedy. A million lives lost are statistics.—Joseph Stalin

May we never adopt the Soviet tyrant’s attitude. Yet, it’s easy to becomenumb to vast human suffering. News coverage of the great December26, 2004 tsunami fades into a jumble of mind-boggling numbers: 9.0earthquake; 11 countries hit hard; 1,200 miles of coastline affected inIndia alone. Altogether, more than 284,000 dead. Another 231,000missing. By mid-February, the Indian death tally hovered around 11,000and the government was poised to elevate that official – and final – bodycount by decreeing that the 5,640 still reportedmissing were among the deceased.

All the figures are estimates. None reflect thegenuine horror of individual lives lost andothers forever scarred. While mass mediaoffered the entire world an opportunity toobserve the disaster from a very safe distance,only the relief workers understand themagnitude of what has occurred – and theongoing needs.

Teams from Chapel Missions India wereamong the first to deliver humanitarian aidto devastated areas. Immediately after getting news of the wave, workersin Bangalore packed up a van with bags of rice, packets of biscuits,blankets, utensils, clothing, and medicine (much of it donated by believersfrom local Calvary Chapels). Together with two ambulances and tenmedical team members, they traveled the more than 150 miles to thecoastal villages and encountered a ghastly scene. In the first few daysCalvary Chapel workers buried 100 bodies – many of them putrid anddecaying. They established mass cooking facilities and provided fresh

water for those whose supplies were contaminated. They offered blanketsand clothes and basic necessities to survivors. Above all, they shared thelove of God with hurting, angry people at a time when even affectedChristians questioned the Almighty’s concern for mankind.

Shortly after arriving on the scene, Guna, who heads Calvary ChapelTrust in Bangalore, reported that “the surviving souls wish that the wholeincident happened at night when they were fast asleep so that their wholefamily would have perished together. Husbands have lost their wives;

children are orphaned; wives are withouthusbands. . .Women hear the voices of childrenscreaming before they were silenced by tsunamiwaves.”

Care of children plays a major role in ChapelMissions India’s ongoing efforts. After visiting15 seriously distressed villages, they decidedto focus on several specific communitiesincluding Nambiar Nagar Village where 250families lost everything and six feet of sea waterwashed through the community leaving homesfull of sludge. Workers shoveled debris, cleanedwhat could be salvaged, provided families with

kitchen utensils and stoves, and counseled villagers. In all, 1,000 hutsand houses were rehabilitated.

But there’s more to life than food and shelter. Many of the afflicted werefishermen and their families. With help from the India Bible Literatureorganization, the twenty Calvary Chapel workers distributed 1,000 Biblesto believers as well as those curious about the faith.

As survivors adjust to life after the catastrophe, Calvary Chapel remains

“Above all, they sharedthe love of God with

hurting, angry people…”

by Colleen Maile

Working on the front lines affords manyopportunities to share God’s love and thosewho minister there have many prayer requests;but above all else they ask for changed livesand souls saved. Guna’s last missiveconcludes, “The devastation is huge. But alittle help here and there will make a greatdifference to the tsunami-affected region.Come join hands with us.”

involved. Workers helped build paths, roads,and bridges to facilitate travel to schools andcommercial areas. They provided children withschool supplies, textbooks and notebooks tohelp them prepare for the all-important finalexams. Education is critical to advancement inIndia, especially in the area where CalvaryChapel is establishing a strong relationship withthe local people. Many of them harijans, literallytranslated “God’s people,” traditionally called untouchables, they arewithout caste in Indian society. Under the Indian constitution, the harijansare recognized as people entitled to educational and vocationalopportunities, as well as representation in parliament; however, widespreaddiscrimination still exists.

In their village, Ambedkar Nagar, children have received school suppliesthrough Chapel Missions India’s efforts, and a temporary Education Centeris up and running. The parents of many of these students are illiterate.Education Center teachers such as Ambika, who work in Ambedkar Nagar,help the children excel at school. She also shares the love of Christ andHis Gospel through stories, games, and songs.

Calvary Chapel’s commitment to these people and others affected by thetsunami is ongoing. It’s anticipated that the Education Center will helpforge relationships with members of that community that last far beyondthis spring’s final exams. In the predominantly Muslim community ofThondhi plans are in the works to build a community hall and church.Continuing efforts include securing a safe water supply. In many communitiesthere are only a few shallow wells—because of the proximity to the ocean,water becomes salty after a depth of about 22 feet. In addition to diggingnew shallow wells, Chapel Missions India is also purchasing a tanker truckto carry potable water to these communities. This is of utmost importanceas the hot and humid summer approaches.

“Calvary Chapel’scommitment to thesepeople...is ongoing.”

Trials of a slum church

The Chinnappa Garden slum in north Bangalore is home to about 6,000people. Its inhabitants are among the poorest of the poor. Conditions areterrible, and disease is rampant. Since its establishment in 1993, theChristians of Calvary Chapel in Chinnappa Garden continue to reach outto their neighbors with the love of Christ in spite of constant threats andintimidation. At one time those opposed to the spread of Christianity in theslum paid a local gang leader to force the church to close. This radicalHindu gang tried a variety of tactics, including shouting obscenities duringworship services and trying to take over the building. Through it all, Godwas faithful to strengthen the believers, and the fellowship continued tomeet and grow.

The gang leader made Pastor Immanuel a special target, attempting to extortmoney from him while falsely accusing him of cheating him in a varietyof ways. Pastor Immanuel responded by attempting to share the love ofJesus Christ with the man, but persecution only increased. The gang leaderrepeatedly threatened to kill him, and Pastor Immanuel was forced to fleethrough the streets of the slum by night as the man pursued him in a drunkenrage. Finally, fearing for their son’s life, Immanuel’s parents went to Gunaand requested that their son be sent to serve in another location.

Pastor Dannish Raj expects martyrdom

In his place the Lord raised up Dannish Raj. He and his wife, Esther,had been praying about the situation for the previous five years.Both were converts to Christianity from Hindu families, and werecommitted to serving the Lord whenever and wherever He chose.When he became pastor of Calvary Chapel Chinnappa Garden,Dannish Raj fully expected to die in the slum for the sake ofthe kingdom of God. He, his wife, and their three childrennow live in the slum. In addition to the threat of persecution,they have often been sick due to unhygienic conditions.Nevertheless, the church presses on with worship services,Bible study, home groups, fasting and prayer meetings, andwomen’s and children’s ministries.

Ruth Mary, the “Lazarus” of Chinnappa Garden

While Pastor Raj and his family were willing to face the unrelentingpersecution that so often characterizes Christian service in the slum,God had something else in mind. In 2004, a woman named RuthMary from the fellowship became desperately ill with cholera. Cholerais caused by a bacterial infection of the intestine. In areas withinadequate treatment of sewage and drinking water, such as the slumsof India, the disease spreads quickly. Rapid loss of body fluids leadsto dehydration and shock; without treatment, death can occur withinhours. By the time Ruth Mary’s family sought medical help, it was toolate. She slipped into a coma and died five days later. The doctorsigned the death certificate and released the body to her family. Itwould appear that her story was over. Her family brought her hometo Chinnappa Garden, where Pastor Dannish Raj, his wife, and manyother believers gathered around her and began to pray. God answeredtheir prayers and raised her from the dead. This event marked a turningpoint for the church. Persecution has subsided; impressed by thisundeniable miracle, non-believers in the area will no longer allowradical Hindu gangs to come against thechurch in their midst as they

have in thepast.

For many of us, the idea of suffering actualphysical persecution for our faith is a foreignconcept, but for believers living in the slumironically known as Chinnappa Garden,persecution has been a way of life.

To reach Judea, Samaria, and the uttermostparts of the earth…

by Pat Harder

Calvary Chapel in Rome, Italy, came into existence four years ago whenBrent Harrell and his wife, Hope, left their home in Boise, Idaho, to travelthousands of miles to Rome, convinced that the Lord had told them toplant a church there while on a mission trip to that area. Today the fellowshipconsists of about 30 people and meets in a small store-front building indowntown Rome. Often their needs seem to outnumber their resources.

Yet Brent believes that his fellowship also has a responsibility to be involvedin missions. “I have been consistently reminded of the scripture that says

pure religion is to care for orphans and widows. Well, we don’t have muchof a chance to deal with orphans in Italy.”

During his years in Boise, Brent became familiar with the work of Chapel Missions India. “When Gunacame for a visit in ’94, I was living at the Discipleship House at the church. I met him then and we became

friends. I love that man, he is precious.” The realization that the amount of money he might spend on a fewlong-distance phone calls or the cost of dinner in a restaurant with his family could support an Indian orphan,

Bible college student, or evangelist for a month helped put things in perspective, making it “nearly impossible notto act.” Through the years Brent and Hope have given to the ministry as they were able.

“Off and on, I have prayed about how our fellowship might get involved in missions.” Although his church is small,and is itself part of the “mission field,” Brent knows it is important for them as a fledgling body to have a vision toreach “Judea, Samaria, and the uttermost parts of the earth.” He is convinced that India is the place for them to start.

As a result of this conviction, Calvary Chapel Rome is now helping to support Calvary Chapel ChinnappaGarden in Bangalore, India. “The brothers and sisters in India truly lay down their lives for Jesus and Hisgospel message. It is a most noble cause and I want our church to be a part of God’s work in a greatercontext than just our services or our city. It is pretty much that simple.”

Calvary Chapel Rome has a Vision…

Go and tell what you’ve seen and heard

At the November 2004 women’s retreat held at the Prayer Garden just outside ofBangalore, members of a ministry team from the United States had the opportunity tomeet Ruth Mary. She is 45 years old, has a bright face and a cheerful smile. Raised asa Catholic, she was baptized four years ago as a sign of her faith in Jesus Christ. She isemployed as a housemaid and also cleans the church building as a volunteer. Her faceradiates joy as she describes her experience of being brought back to life. “This causeda big stir in her community,” says Guna. The Lord used this miracle to put an end to theintense persecution that had characterized the lives of the believers in Chinnappa Gardenfor over ten years. Ruth Mary’s restored life has become a testimony to the greatness,power, and love of God.

Although she never had the opportunity to learn to read, Ruth Mary carries her Biblewith her everywhere, and asks friends to read it to her. She prays for the church in India,her local fellowship, and those who desire to persecute the church in her community.When asked what she learned at the retreat, she said, “to lead a humble life before theLord; that there is power in prayer; and that I should use my mouth for God.” And witha testimony like hers, people listen.

Even though the threat of persecution has lessened, the fellowship still faces manychallenges. Please pray for Pastor Dannish Raj, his family, and the people of the ChinnappaGarden slum; for strength, protection, and guidance of the believers, and for the salvationof those who do not yet know Jesus Christ.

Just a year ago, Tom Salove had little interest in serving the people of India. (See

article on page 4.) Now, they are an important part of his life. On February 29,

2005, Tom made his second trip to India in less than four months. His mission

– dedicating Chapel Missions India tsunami relief contributions to the Lord. It

was a whirlwind trip. In four days, Tom endured the 24-hour flight from Boise

to Bangalore, then took a 10-hour train ride and a three-hour car trip to reach

the village of Ambedkar Nagar. There, he dedicated three playgrounds, a water-

tanker truck that delivers 30,000 liters per day, and an Education Center where

children are given free after-school tutoring along with a hearty dose of

Christian education.

News reports couldn’t prepare him for the ongoing tsunami tragedy. The

odor of thousands of bodies rotting in shallow graves lingers in the

air. Idle fishermen collect government welfare checks and sit on the

beach or pass the time gambling. While many are eager to return

to the sea, government compensation for ruined boats and nets

is slow in coming. Still, adults rebound faster than children.

Little ones have sad eyes and suffer from nightmares. While

Chapel Missions India has provided school kits, supplies,

and clothing, final exams are delayed in this area. For older

students that means that by the time they complete their

tests, jobs will already be filled.

Guna asks for prayer for the children, the fishermen, and,

of course, the lost. And, Tom Salove explained, “those

prayers are already being answered.” In this primarily

Muslim community, “people are very appreciative of

what we’re doing.” Some have already given their

lives to the Lord. “Guna is able to explain God’s

purposes to them, and they are accepting of His

will.” Through all the devastation, God is working.

As God brings increase to these house churches, there is a need to find or build places of worship.Real estate in slums can be relatively costly for our new brothers and sisters in Christ. We can help!

Book Review by Cathy Caldwell

Praying Hyde is a true story about anamazing man who, at a very youngage, learned the value and power ofprayer. John Hyde was brought up in aloving Christian family. The influenceof prayer was passed down to John fromhis father – a pastor and a great manof prayer himself. While in college,John deeply committed his life to Christand answered God’s call to go to Indiaand share Christ with those who hadnever heard the good news of God’ssalvation. One by one, John wouldwalk and talk with his college friends;and one by one, they too receivedGod’s burden for those who had neverheard. It is said that God used John’sintercessory prayer to influence thesemen who forsook all to go to the ripeharvest field of the world, leavingbehind a great impact for Christ.

John spent his entire adult life in India.Wanting to give something to Christ,John told the Lord that he would notmarry, but wanted to be His alone. Helived in a tent traveling from village tovillage sharing the gospel with the poor.He became known as “Praying Hyde,”the man who never slept. This servantrealized that whatever would beaccomplished in the spiritually dark

land of India would have to be birthedthrough prayer; therefore, he devotedhis life to prayer and intercession forlost souls. This, along with his love forJesus, was the passion of his life.

Before the Silakot convention whereChristian workers came from all overIndia to be taught about the Christianlife, John interceded for 30 days andnights. A great revival took place in thehearts and lives of the men and womenwho attended. During this event, Johncommitted himself to the prayer roomwhere he labored on his knees as otherstaught the Word of God. This becamehis habit through life, and because ofhis faithfulness, there was an outpouringof the Holy Spirit in which lives werechanged – hearts transformed forever.Prayer can accomplish what no mancan.

As John began to see fruit from hislabor, He asked God for a certainnumber of souls each day. Every yearGod met or exceeded that quota!Praying Hyde's life was dependent uponthe Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit wasevidenced in and through his life, histeaching, and his countenance. He was,and still is, beloved among the Indianpeople, of whom one missionary wasquoted as saying, “It is a good thingJohn Hyde was not buried in India, forthe non-Christians would have made

a shrine of hisgrave.” He left aspiritual impactupon India andh e r p e o p l eforever.

Even though thisbook was not easyreading, I appreciatelearning about thelife of a man whowas committed top raye r, and thed i f f e r ence t ho seprayers made for alleternity. The scriptures tell us, “Theeffective, fervent prayer of a righteousman avails much” (James 5:16). In ourday and age, it seems that too littlevalue is placed on the importance ofprayer. We seem to depend too muchon ourselves and not enough on God.Because of this, we can miss out on allthat God desires to do in and throughus.

We are confident that all we have seenGod do in India has been the result ofthe prayers of our faithful church familyboth here at home, and in India. Mayyour hearts be stirred to prayer, as minehas, through the life of this great manof prayer, John Hyde.

Chapel Missions India (CMI) is an outreach ministry of CalvaryChapel Boise, Idaho, responding to the biblical mandate forworld evangelization. We are an enabling ministry for anindigenous work in India. This ministry holds itself accountableto God and to the elders of Calvary Chapel Boise.

The staff outside of India consists of Pastor Bob Caldwell, PastorMike and Linda Sasso, and various volunteers. Chapel MissionsIndia has no salaried staff. All of the work is done in homeoffices or at the church. Our administrators, bookkeeper,graphic artists, writers, photographers and those who assistthis ministry in any way are volunteers or on staff at CalvaryChapel Boise. Trips taken to India by people involved in thisministry are paid for either by Calvary Chapel Boise and/orpersonal funds. Our stateside operating expenses are a smallpercentage of the total budget, most of which is used forpostage and printing costs and is paid for by Calvary ChapelBoise.

Within India we operate at “Calvary Chapel Trust.” Thisorganization has gained official recognition as a charitableorganization by the central government of India. As such, theTrust must report every rupee of foreign funds it receives. TheTrust is audited annually by the government of India. Theministry there is currently broken down in 46 separate projectsunder 15 specific programs. These range from a program fortribal children in Gujarat in the northwest to a leprosy projectnear Chengalpet in the southeast.

The administration of Calvary Chapel Trust is done by the staffin the Bangalore office. The budget for the director, manager,and seven other staff, travel, medical, gas, postage, etc., totalsapproximately 12% of the total budget and is provided for bya tithe from Calvary Chapel Boise. It does not come out ofdesignated gifts given by sponsors.

Staff workers in India are paid. Full and part-time workers,teachers, cooks, drivers, etc. total more than 175. We alsoretain the services of a doctor, primarily for the Home of Hopechildren. The Bible College and Children Centers have staffworkers in various other locations. Their operating costs arepaid for by gifts given for those specific ministries.

It is very important that you know that the moneyyou give to this ministry is used specifically for thisministry.
