Dear Loved Ones,

Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour – Jesus Christ from Jowai, Meghalaya.  Also, wishing you all a Happy,
Blessed and Health filled New Year 2015. 

The Annual Convention of the Jaintia Hills & Mushai Churches of Christ/Christian Churches, which is being hosted by the Nonglatem Church in Jaintia Hills, is from 30th January to 1st February, 2015.  So, please PRAY for this convention; especially that the Lord will lead and guide each of the speakers so that many souls may be won to Christ and His Church. 

Church Planting & Stablization: Please also PRAY for a New Outreach in Rangthiahang Village (not sure if I am spelling it right) in the Bhoi Area.  Three families from the Amjalong Kerwent Church who have moved there recently and have requested at the last Men’s Fellowship held in November 2014, that they would like their help to have a new congregation planted in this village.  So, several leaders and Christians, including Bana, from the Jaintia Churches have gone there today – 25th January, 2015; to help plant a new congregation.  Please PRAY for this new outreach; that the spirit of God will lead and guide each one who has answered ‘the call’  to go there and help.

All-India Convention of the Churches of Christ/Christian Churches – Mawlai Umthlong, Shillong, East Khasi Hills:  Please PRAY for this Convention which is being hosted by the Mawlai Umtlong Church of Christ, located in one of the suburbs of Shillong City from 17th to 19th April, 2015.  More news on this as we receive from Shillong.

Please email this news to those on the mailing list and we will be sending another one shortly, with pictures and news updates.  There is so much
going on and sometimes, I (Marguerite) am unable to keep up with the correspondence (Must be age!!!).  Please PRAY that the Lord will give both of us, and all our co-workers at JIM, including Richard, good health.  Please also PRAY for more folks to join the full-time ministry.

May the Lord continue to bless each one of you abundantly in this New Year 2015.

Love in Christ,
Bnasan (Bana) & Marguerite Uriah, Helen, Richard & Larisa
