We are getting ready to go to India and we definitely need your prayers. Unfortunately, due to a health issue, Michele will not be joining us for this trip. We are all disappointed that she will miss this opportunity and sad that we will be missing her there – teaching and ministering with us.Please pray that the Lord will bring her healing and encouragement.
Tonight is our big annual fundraiser and we are excited about what the Lord will do as we share our hearts for this ministry with those who come.
We are continuing to study to be prepared with lessons from God’s word and we will fill every minute between now and the time we get on the plane! Many of us will use the travel time to continue to study and prepare (and perhaps sleep). Check this blog as often as you can and we will do our best to keep it updated and even upload some pictures as we can.
Blessings,
Susan
Ryder Kumar is serving as our International Director. As one of the founding members of Shepherding the Nations, it was Ryder's vision to see pastors trained and equipped for ministry that became the foundation of Shepherding the Nations.
Shepherding the Nations has identified qualified and called men who are already working in unreached areas of India and Nepal. We are providing the training to better equip them and the financial resources to support them in their ministries.
Our directors have been equipped to teach our ten-volume training curriculum. These key men are training indigenous pastors and church planters while also providing accountability, resources materials, and support. 
During our training program, we provide our ten volume set of curriculum from the Biblical Training Centre for Pastors (BTCP) in their local language. We also provide essentials resources such as Bible Concordance and Study Bible. We have been able to provide these books to all of our pastors through the generous donations of our donors. These books can be purchased for about $10 each or an entire set for $100.
