Dear Sponsor,

Greetings to you in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to you for your valuable prayers and financial support for my ministry.  Your valuable cooperation has greatly motivated me to do the ministry effectively. Continue to pray for me. I also remember you in my prayers. May the Lord bless you immensely.

Presently, I am pastoring a church as Doldoli and also involved in pioneer work in the surrounding areas. This place is malignly dominated by the Hindus. They are very much deep rooted in their religious beliefs. Even then, I am sharing the Gospel through tract distribution, house visitation, church planting and personal evangelism.

By God’s grace I have planted three churches in Doldoli and Satgoan villages. Each Church has more then 65 believers. Pray that these churches will grow numerically and spiritually.

I have stated a mission station with nine believers in Nilalun village. Pray that the Lord will help us to construct a church building there very soon, so that the people can come and worship the Lord freely.

Once while sharing the Gospel, some Hindus came and attacked me. But the Lord helped me to escapes from them. And by God’s grace I am still working in the same area. Pray that the Lord will use me effectively among them to win them for the kingdom of God.

Apson Marak was paralyzed. Therefore he became so disappointed and distraught. As a church we all prayed for him, the Lord healed him miraculously. Praise be to the name of the Lord.

I have distributed 1021 tracts, 140 booklets and 23 New Testaments in the last six month’s ministry. Pray that those who received the Gospel literature will receive Jesus as their Savior.

• Pray for my family to remain faithful to God’s call.
• Pray for the new believers to stand firm in faith in Christ in all situations.
• Pray that the Lord will use me mightily for the expansion of His kingdom.

In Christ,

Mohammed Kashem Ali
