Training Program

• In order to build the church we have to reach the people those who are unreached by the word of God.

• Equip the believers to get training to share the Gospel among the villages which are near by the church.

• It is not easy for the Indian community to accept the Christ as their savior. But there will be reaping. For them need to have the worship place and pastor.

• The church and Trust will help towards this ministry.
