Mission

This summer, a handful of young adults from EFCC will be leaving San Diego and heading to the Andhra Pradesh province of India for a three-week, short-term project in July. While there, we will be helping an Indian organization by way of teaching English to college students on campus. These students have joined church planting teams so they can go out all across India to plant churches and assist in certain needs of many different communities (social work). In the first year, the students (called Freshers) come to campus for two months to learn English (by the way, all of their classes are taught only in English), and take other Christian courses as well (i.e., Spiritual Development, Penteteuch, Discipleship, SMS- research & citation, etc). If, after four years, they pass all their classes they will graduate with a degree in either theology or in Christian Studies which will help them in their church planting ventures.

Mark 16:15-- He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation."

Video alert!

Today we visited one of the local slums with Elsie!  Julio took a short video of the young children singing a Christmas song (that they did during a pageant last year).  We learned that some of them are able to attend a GSS (Good Shepherd School) while others can't. Most of the community, a total of 60 families are Christian... Praise the Lord!  It is due to her desire to serve the Lord in this capacity that these families know about the love of Christ!  Please pray for Elsie's health; she has been having headaches, toothaches, and possibly has a vertebrae out of place (or slipped a disc, something along those lines). We all thank you for your support and prayers!

God bless,
-Tiffany
