MORIEL HOREB CHURCH

KOTHAPETA, A.P.

"In response to the urgent need for preaching the Gospel and in obedience to the missionary call, I am delighted to announce that Moriel India has successfully established a new church in Kothapeta, located in the Konaseema area of Andhra Pradesh, India."

The new church was established to provide a place of worship for the local communities and to share the message of Salvation. On the opening day, many people from the local villages attended, along with several local pastors who came to celebrate the start of this new ministry.

We observed between 150 and 200 people in attendance, providing a great opportunity for local residents to witness such an event for the first time in the area. Moriel operates in areas without churches.

• Rom 15:20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

The new church plant initiative in rural India has made significant strides in establishing a presence for faith, community service, and spiritual growth here in Kothapeta. 

Through a combination of prayer, outreach, and engagement, the project has started to plant seeds of hope, transformation, and unity among the residents. With ongoing support, partnership, and dedication, the church plant is positioned to become a shining beacon of light and love in the rural landscape of India, inspiring positive change and spiritual renewal for years to come.

This village is home to both Hindus and Muslims. Most of the residents are farmers from diverse backgrounds, with many following traditional belief systems.

During its initial phases, the church plant initiative faced several challenges, including resistance from some community members, logistical constraints, and limited resources. 

However, these challenges were overcome with resilience, creativity, and collaboration, leading to opportunities for growth and impact in the community. The project has the potential to promote a greater understanding of the gospel.

On my recent visit and the evening of the dedication and official opening of the new church, I spent some time talking to local residents and asking them to come and attend. I was met with great respect and enthusiasm from many. I really believe there are many people who are very near to coming to the Lord. 

Thank you  

Moriel India
