    THE EVERLASTING COVENANT CHURCH

    Reaching the lost at any costMatthew 9:37-38

    The ministrys goal and objective is to reach the people in Imphal and adjoining areas including Burma

    with the love of Jesus Christ.

    We are now called The Everlasting Covenant Church. We teach people that they are covenanted

    children of the Most High God and are seeing the difference in their lives bear good fruit as they face the

    challenges of life with a smile!

    Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach glad tidings to the

    poor; he has sent me to preach to captives deliverance, and to the blind sight, to send forth the

    crushed delivered, 19 to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.It has been a very exciting two months. We had opportunities to speak at various places and the Lord

    supernaturally opened doors for us to minister His glorious Word in this parched land.

    Reaching Drug Addicts with the Love of God

    The Everlasting Covenant Church had the opportunity to meet up with recovering drug addicts and also

    visit their shelter The Overcomers. Some of those who have signed up for the detox program are only

    5 or 10 days old. It saddening to see how those who are battling drugs were falling asleep while the

    Word was being ministered. At the end of the meeting, most of them were enthusiastic and took a vow

    to overcome this habit and live a victorious life for Jesus free from drugs! Praise the Lord.

    This meeting was held at a Pastors home who has graciously offered his home to the brothers to share

    and hear the Word. Everyone was happy and blessed. The person with the white shirt in the right side

    photograph is the founder of the shelter The Overcomers. We were privileged to have an evening with

    them and then to be invited later to the Shelter to share encouragement from the Word to the

    discouraged!

    MINISTERS CONFERENCE, OCTOBER 2011

    On October 16th

    2011, we were invited to the Faith Christian Fellowship Ministers Conference at the

    Life Spring Centre, Dimapur, Nagaland. It was a moment of refreshing. The guest speakers were from

    Australia and charged all of us immensely. Right from the hospitality, the praise and worship and the

    Word - all was outstanding. We are excited for the upcoming meetings. Praise the Lord!

    FELLOWSHIP AND PRAYER

    ON THE MOUNTAIN

    The Everlasting Covenant Church and its prayer team planned a day out in the mountains for a time of

    prayer and fellowship. It was such an invigorating experience. Each one was refreshed and strengthened

    in the spirit.

    As we were worshipping in the Ministers Conference at Dimapur, the Lord impressed our hearts to start

    praying for the land of Manipur. The Lord confirmed this as we met people (expect many more to join)

    in Imphal through and with whom this mandate will be accomplished! Following this, we were invited to

    speak at a youth camp meeting this month. The camp was held in a place where drug addiction and

    prostitution is rampant. One lecturer in the University and a Theology student rededicated their lives to

    Jesus. Three drug addicts in detox also vowed to give live their lives for Jesus. Praise the Lord! The last

    evening was tremendous as the praise and worship team sung Manipuri gospel songs. Many gave their

    lives to Jesus. Hallelujah!
