SHAring LOve Mission
Aim
In our own Country “Bharat” more than 8
crores of people are Adivasis who belong to more than 400 tribal
groups. Of these the Bhil Adivasis are the 3rd largest group
numbering more than one crore. It is our endeavour to take the
gospel of Christ to these people and build His Church.
The beginning of the Mission
Bro. V. Devadoss and his wife Sis.
Vahitha Devadoss had a calling from God to serve among the
unreached in the northern part of our nation. When they prayed
together fervently saying ,”Give us Oh Lord, one whole tribe of
people in our life time for your Glory”, God took them among the
Bhil Tribe and guided them to realize their vision.
According to God’s leading, on 28.12.90 this
Missionary couple Bro. V. Devadoss and Sis. Vahitha Devadoss
were dedicated by Bro. Mohan C. Lazarus [Jesus Redeems]
Nalumavadi, Thoothukudi Dist, Tamil Nadu during the Fasting
Prayer Meeting called Thirappin Vasal Jebam.After sufficient
preparations they started their missionary work in the Mission
Field on 1.7.1991.
Bhil Native Evangelist
It is a God - given vision and burden that
the entire Bhil Tribes numbering 78 lakhs must be met by their
own tribal people. To realize this great vision, God has raised
a large number of dedicated native Evangelists who have a
personal experience of salvation and baptism of the Holyspirit
and the Evangelists are committed to the vision of evangelising
their own Tribes. Praise God 430 native Adivasi Bhil
families have joined our Mission as full time ministers after
having received training in our Bible School.
Village Churches
All praise to be our Almighty God. Many
thousands of souls have accepted Christ Jesus as their personal
saviour and they have joined the church after being baptized.
They worship the Lord in 620 Villages every week. 220 village
Churches have been built and 20 more are under construction.
