Ministry Report
Greetings Everyone,
As we want to reflect on growing in God’s grace in our daily journey, we are reminded that spiritual growth is a gradual process, and God patiently leads us step by step. As 2nd Peter 3:18 reminds us, we are called to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” Like a plant that needs care, sunlight, and water, our faith grows deeper when we spend time with God, stay rooted in His Word, and walk in obedience to Him.
There are seasons when growth may feel slow or not clearly visible, but God is always at work within us. He is shaping our character, strengthening our faith, and helping us become more like Him over time. Instead of rushing the process, we are called to remain rooted in Him and trust His timing.
When we walk in this way — staying rooted in God’s grace, remaining faithful in His Word, and trusting His process — our lives continue to grow steadily and reflect Christ more each day.
SPONSORSHIP
We thank God for the successful completion of this academic year and for the good performance of all our sponsored students in their final exams. Bhuvneshwar (1st Grade) – 81%, Mokshitha (4th Grade) – 84%, Rishika (7th Grade) – 70%, Muskan (9th Grade) – 84%, and Houriya (10th Grade) – 65%.
This year has been a journey of learning, growth, and perseverance for the students.

Along with academics, we see growth in their confidence, discipline, and outlook towards life.
We are grateful to share that the scholarship fee for all students has been completely paid for this academic year. At the same time, applications are now being collecting for the next academic year 2026–2027 to identify and support more students in need.

Mentoring Groups
Small Groups
Our Small Group Ministry continues to focus on spiritual growth, unity, and mutual encouragement. This month, all groups continued their meetings and their learning journey, despite personal, academic, and life-related challenges.
The Chosen Ones gathered after a long gap for sharing, worship, and prayer, which helped restore connection, strengthen unity, and encourage each member in their responsibilities. The Truth Seekers reflected on “Be a Fighter” (1 Timothy 6:12), thereby gaining clarity on spiritual warfare and being encouraged to stand firm in faith.
The Kadosh Sarang group continued to strengthen unity and mutual support among members while navigating challenges related to health, work, finances, and life transitions. The Living Epistles continued their study on Gospel-Centered Life, focusing on God’s grace, human sin, and dependence on God rather than performative living, along with understanding the bigger picture of the Bible.
The Paul and Timothy group continued discussions on God is Person, helping members deepen their understanding of His nature and grow in their relationship with Him.
Overall, all groups continue to show steady spiritual growth, mutual encouragement, and deeper engagement with God’s Word.
