    My witness:

    My name is Kondepaga Benjiman belonged to Jaggapuram village. I lived
    in the sins in my youth and unaware of God. Beloved god servant
    Bethapudi Devadanam who had been to my village in the year 1982, Nov
    10th to preach the Gospel. That made me to attend the prayer meeting.
    He spoke that the wages of the sin was death and told about salvation
    and added that Jesus Christ was died on the cross for me .and also
    explained about external life. As he referred Romans 8:1,”No
    condemnation to those who are in JESUS CHRIST. Then I confessed my
    sins by this word of God .Then I was baptized and strengthened by his
    leading according to Ephe 6:7 .Then, there was a clear call from JESUS
    to do the ministry. I thank God for saving me. I have been doing His
    ministry by having great burden towards many souls. Everyday I train
    and send many people for His service.

    My request:

    As we have the great burden towards the earning souls to do the
    ministry earnestly, for our team members (35-40). Pray and extend your
    Co-operation towards lending missionary tools like ……. Bibles,
    Pamphlets, Sound system and one Gospel Bus.
    I request you humbly to come to my place and preach among us and see
    the harvest in our area .I pray for you and your ministry.

    Thanking you with prayers,
    Benjiman ministries,
    Edlapadu mandal,
    Guntur dist-522233.
    Andhraprdesh.
