November Newsletter from GSM

Dearly beloved in Christ,

“Grace to you and peace from God our father and the Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Cor 1:3)
“The Lord has done great things for us and we are glad.” (Psalm 126:3)
“O give thanks to the God of Heaven, for his steadfast love endures forever.” (Psalm 136:26)
“Enter His gates with thanks giving and his courts with Praise; be thankful unto him and bless his name. For the Lord is good.” (Psalm 100:4-5)

The Lord gave us the grace to serve the poor people of our area through Good Shepherd Mission, Puttur. It gives me great Joy to share the certain things during the past weeks in the mission.

The Lord wonderfully blessed us during a one-day prayer meeting held at our Ashram on 22-November-2008. All the evangelists of GSM and their family members experienced the mighty power of the Lord and were blessed abundantly. The Lord poured out the special anointing on all of them. The Lord used Bro. Henry mightly in this conference and people were greatly blessed. Praise God with all your heart for us. Please pray fervently for the grace of God to be with us and help us to fulfill his plans in evangelistic programmes.

Our Loving Lord enabled our hospital staff to conduct two eye camps through the Dr. Charles Memorial Eye Foundation on 11-Nov and 17-Nov at two places called Vengalathur and Nindra. Due to these camps, 21 poor people got light by [GSM] giving cataract surgeries to them and many people get treatment and Free Medicine .

There are Number of successful stories happened in this ministry for the past 29 years. I want share two of the stories that the Lord recently did.

One family in our mission by the name of Abraham and Sarah (Christian names) who lost hope in their life and came to the mission 12 years back with their 4 little girls. They had previously lost two of their kids because of starvation. Our hearts melted when they shared about their sufferings. But our loving Lord by his immense grace enabled us to pray for them and keep them in our mission. Two daughters are now married and the others have become Nurses. One is Gowri and other Bhuvana. Recently, Gowri got a job in the country of Malasia. Praise the Lord!!! She started work on 14-Nov. The other got a job in Hyderabad.

One more miracle of the Lord is “Bandi Saroja” who got a nursing degree and who was working in G.S.M. Hospital, Puttur has recently gotten a government job! Praise the Lord!!!

TUMER REMOVED:
On 22-Nov, a patient who came to our Hospital from Erode, 200 Km away from Puttur, had a rare surgery in our hospital. Our guest surgeon Dr. Nagamunaiah performed this surgery along with our doctor in GSM Hospital Dr. Sunitha M.S. O.B.G. Dr. Subramanyam Andesthist and our staff. They found 7.2 Kgs. Of TUMER in her woumb. Priase the Lord! It has been removed. It is the biggest surgery we have ever had.

Previously, Mrs. Nagamani from Erode went to several different hospitals for surgery. Those hospitals required a lot of money for the surgery, but the family could not afford it. At last they came to GSM Hospital in Puttur where we did it with the help of God. Praise God! She is still under ICU at GSM, Puttur. Please pray for her. Thank God for all his mercies shown towards us!

VEDAVATHI HEALED:

One woman from a village called, Narayanavanam came to GSM with horrible arthritis. She had gone to many hospitals for treatment and spent a lot of money, but there was no healing. When all the family members were weeping because of her disease, one gentleman told them “There is an institution in puttur called GSM. If you take this woman to that place, she will be healed!” So they brought her on a Friday, and with fasting prayer we prayed for her. GOD healed her. They came again last Friday and told their witness. Praise GOD!!

PRAYER:

Heavenly father on this thanks giving day we bow our hearts to you and pray. We give you thanks for all you have done especially for the gift of Jesus. Bless us. Amen

Happy Thanks giving day!! With much love,

Brother Henry
