Visit from the CCI President
Greetings!
We praise God for the CCI ministry during the month of May. We had a wonderful time with Dr. David Nelson, who was visiting India from May 12-17, 2022. While in India, he led a God's Financial Principles (GFP) seminar on May 13, 2022 for 13 teachers in Hyderabad. All the teachers were blessed by the seminar and made the decision to teach the GFP seminar to pastors in India. All the teachers had good fellowship with Dr. David Nelson.

We also held the Cross Before the Crown Seminar for a total of 40 participants, including pastors & leaders in Achampet, Telangana. Also during his visit, we arranged for the alumni to meet with Dr. David Nelson. Nearly 15 graduates attended and were motivated to pray for and support CCI.

With God’s help, I was able to visit the Rayagada District in Odisha state last month to conduct the first Teacher Training Workshop (TTW) there. The TTW was conducted in Rayagada with seven participants. We have identified three teachers who are willing to start three classes in Rayagada.

While in Odisha state, I met with Brother Ajit Sen, the Odiya translator who is doing an excellent job of translating the CCI training materials into the Odiya language.
Praise God for Brother Ajit
I also had the privilege of conducting an online TTW for two teachers, who are now excited to work with the CCI India Ministry. Please pray for these two teachers and that new CCI classes will be started as we aspire to glorify God by equipping Christ-followers with comprehensive training.
Our team of new CCI teachers are teaching their assigned classes effectively and training disciples for effective ministry. Continue to pray for the CCI India ministry, for financial support and expansion. We are thankful to you for your prayers and support.
