11.Naming ceremony 1 in Ramanjaneyapuram Church.
I am able to conduct the worship services in 3 congregations. Church of Christ in Makkenavaripalem, Church of Christ in Ramanjaneyapuram and church of Christ in Subbaiahpalem Church of Christ. We have good growth in the congregations spiritually.
New work in another District: These above congregations are located in two districts Prakasam and Guntur districts. But in this month we have to opportunity to extend the work to another districts Krishna(in the state of Andhra Pradesh). The name of the village is Bahubalendram Gudem, Gannavaram mandal ,Krishna district. He it is big village have 3 of other denominations has been working. The other denominations are Pentecostal, New Apostolic Church and Metropolitan Church. But some of the people of village is interested to hear of the truth. I talked to them by phone several times and met one time personally. I need to visit them soon.
In all of the work I find that the private teaching has been effects the people and interested more than the public teaching in India , I don’t know about the other countries. But we have to work in both ways. Acts 20:20.It is very common for me to visit all of the Christian’s homes when I have the time But I visited other 54 families and trying to teach Gospel. Here we have some bad name on the Church of Christ people. They always baptizing the people but no follow up work. I know they are true. I too did the same mistake in the past. Because I have started several congregations but not able to visit at least one time in the yes 2005. These are some of the questions when I made personnel visits to the new people. And some are talking about the unfinished buildings. Expressed that if we have a place together for the work it will be good. It too a problem. When we conducting the services in one’s house the other don’t like to come to the place. So that the people prefer to come to a particular place to come and worship together. When we are in thinking, the other denominational people trying to deceive the Christian and trying to attract the people by showing the Church building. Fore example we lost a congregation Boggaram Church of Christ, It is located in Guntur districts. Recently some of the leaders of the congregation visited me in this month discussed on this matter.
I conduct 2 family prayer meetings. I conducted a family prayer in the house of Manda Anjaneyulu of Ramanjaneyapuram congregation. Her wife is name is Padma. They have a little girl age of 1 year. On her birth day all of the congregation gathered at his house and conducted small meeting and he offered some sweets for all of the congregations and share his joy with the congregation.
And conducted a family prayer meeting in the house of Dupati Veeraiah of Makkenavaripalem congregation. This brother Veeraiah is elder of the Makkenavaripalem village Madiga cast community. He asked me to conduct a prayer meeting in his house and I conducted.
In the month of December I visited several people who are in sic. We have a brother in Ramanjaneyapuram congregation who is suffering with diabetics .his name is Chinna Nageswarao. When has become sic due to his diabetic and asthma I assisted him to bring to the hospital in Narasaraopet. He is better now and diabetics is in control.
And there are some children in Ramanjaneyapuram who was suffered with chickenpox. Due to the chickenpox children troubled with high fever and also painful. When the parents were feared about their children I was there with him and conducted prayers and strengthen them.
And one brother named as Nagipogu Sreenu suffered with Jaundice. In the past he had taken some black sugar. We called it Nallamandu in Telugu language. Due to the Jaundice and the problem of weakness due to black sugar he has become very ill and suffered much. All of the congregation thought that he will not recover from that disease because of his severe condition. I helped him and assisted him and my wife too. Now he is better and able to attend the services.
I toured to Rythunagar congregation several times in the month of December. It is a congregation started by me. Due to some unavoidable circumstances I did not attend any of the services for this congregation although I started it. Last month some of the leader visited me requested my visits to them and their plans for prayer shed. And in the past I arranged one of the brother who got some training in Living Stone preachers Training School. You I stopped the school in the middle of the curse. But they asked my occasional visit. I said I will try and made visits. If I did not go there evil might rule it. Now there are two people wished to donate some 5 cents of land for the Church in Rythunagar.(one acre land is equal to 100 cents)One of the donor is available but other one was in another place. We are trying to get together both of them to make papers.
There are some other congregations started by me in the past. I am sorry I neglected them. I troubled them. I hope I will go and strengthen them with the word of Lord in this new year 2006.
I used to distribute the Truth for Today Telugu books Kreestu Jeevitham-3 .(these books are from www.biblecourses.com in English these books known as The life of Christ5&6.) I distribute 36 books to the local leaders, preachers and Christian here in my area.
We had a naming ceremony in the Ramanjaneyapuram congregation. I named a girl as Priscilla. This girl is the age of 6 months. Her father’s name is Nagesu ,mother’s name Ruthumma. They very glad for the name to have it for her daughter.
I need your prayers, encouragement, help to continue the work of Lord in India. Please greet all the brothers and sisters in Christ there with you.
In the Love of the Lord.

I am able to conduct the worship services in 3 congregations. Church of Christ in Makkenavaripalem, Church of Christ in Ramanjaneyapuram and church of Christ in Subbaiahpalem Church of Christ. We have good growth in the congregations spiritually.
New work in another District: These above congregations are located in two districts Prakasam and Guntur districts. But in this month we have to opportunity to extend the work to another districts Krishna(in the state of Andhra Pradesh). The name of the village is Bahubalendram Gudem, Gannavaram mandal ,Krishna district. He it is big village have 3 of other denominations has been working. The other denominations are Pentecostal, New Apostolic Church and Metropolitan Church. But some of the people of village is interested to hear of the truth. I talked to them by phone several times and met one time personally. I need to visit them soon.
In all of the work I find that the private teaching has been effects the people and interested more than the public teaching in India , I don’t know about the other countries. But we have to work in both ways. Acts 20:20.It is very common for me to visit all of the Christian’s homes when I have the time But I visited other 54 families and trying to teach Gospel. Here we have some bad name on the Church of Christ people. They always baptizing the people but no follow up work. I know they are true. I too did the same mistake in the past. Because I have started several congregations but not able to visit at least one time in the yes 2005. These are some of the questions when I made personnel visits to the new people. And some are talking about the unfinished buildings. Expressed that if we have a place together for the work it will be good. It too a problem. When we conducting the services in one’s house the other don’t like to come to the place. So that the people prefer to come to a particular place to come and worship together. When we are in thinking, the other denominational people trying to deceive the Christian and trying to attract the people by showing the Church building. Fore example we lost a congregation Boggaram Church of Christ, It is located in Guntur districts. Recently some of the leaders of the congregation visited me in this month discussed on this matter.
I conduct 2 family prayer meetings. I conducted a family prayer in the house of Manda Anjaneyulu of Ramanjaneyapuram congregation. Her wife is name is Padma. They have a little girl age of 1 year. On her birth day all of the congregation gathered at his house and conducted small meeting and he offered some sweets for all of the congregations and share his joy with the congregation.
And conducted a family prayer meeting in the house of Dupati Veeraiah of Makkenavaripalem congregation. This brother Veeraiah is elder of the Makkenavaripalem village Madiga cast community. He asked me to conduct a prayer meeting in his house and I conducted.
In the month of December I visited several people who are in sic. We have a brother in Ramanjaneyapuram congregation who is suffering with diabetics .his name is Chinna Nageswarao. When has become sic due to his diabetic and asthma I assisted him to bring to the hospital in Narasaraopet. He is better now and diabetics is in control.
And there are some children in Ramanjaneyapuram who was suffered with chickenpox. Due to the chickenpox children troubled with high fever and also painful. When the parents were feared about their children I was there with him and conducted prayers and strengthen them.
And one brother named as Nagipogu Sreenu suffered with Jaundice. In the past he had taken some black sugar. We called it Nallamandu in Telugu language. Due to the Jaundice and the problem of weakness due to black sugar he has become very ill and suffered much. All of the congregation thought that he will not recover from that disease because of his severe condition. I helped him and assisted him and my wife too. Now he is better and able to attend the services.
I toured to Rythunagar congregation several times in the month of December. It is a congregation started by me. Due to some unavoidable circumstances I did not attend any of the services for this congregation although I started it. Last month some of the leader visited me requested my visits to them and their plans for prayer shed. And in the past I arranged one of the brother who got some training in Living Stone preachers Training School. You I stopped the school in the middle of the curse. But they asked my occasional visit. I said I will try and made visits. If I did not go there evil might rule it. Now there are two people wished to donate some 5 cents of land for the Church in Rythunagar.(one acre land is equal to 100 cents)One of the donor is available but other one was in another place. We are trying to get together both of them to make papers.
There are some other congregations started by me in the past. I am sorry I neglected them. I troubled them. I hope I will go and strengthen them with the word of Lord in this new year 2006.
I used to distribute the Truth for Today Telugu books Kreestu Jeevitham-3 .(these books are from www.biblecourses.com in English these books known as The life of Christ5&6.) I distribute 36 books to the local leaders, preachers and Christian here in my area.
We had a naming ceremony in the Ramanjaneyapuram congregation. I named a girl as Priscilla. This girl is the age of 6 months. Her father’s name is Nagesu ,mother’s name Ruthumma. They very glad for the name to have it for her daughter.
I need your prayers, encouragement, help to continue the work of Lord in India. Please greet all the brothers and sisters in Christ there with you.
In the Love of the Lord.
Yours brother in Christ
