I am Pastor Sridhar [Sri], I came to Christ at the age of 17 in 1996 and went to Bible School in 1998 to learn about God; from there, the mission began. I have spent the last 25 years in ministry teaching in Bible schools, working alongside a senior pastor, evangelizing, and pastoring. When life appeared to be settled, God roused it once more to begin the new path of Church Planting ministry. To prepare myself, I attended Liberty School of Divinity for an M.Div., and when the time came, the Lord sent me to India to start the Church. In 2017, I returned to my birthplace of Vijayawada after graduating. I ve been preparing for the pioneering work with my wife, Ramya, ever since. After nearly five years of trying, we have chosen to acquire the land and build a church to do our church-planting work. Finally, on December 25th, 2022, Ramya and I will be able to open the Maranatha Faith Temple. We began ministering to Telugu-speaking folks with just me and my wife and have grown to about 30 attendants. The Maranatha Faith Temple at Mangalagiri, is a part of Amaravathi, New Capital Region of Andhra Pradesh, India. We intend to reach out to many people in the near future through Gospel meetings, social and community activities. Like-mindedness can be a part of the Lord s work, and you can work together to carry out the Great Commission. Prayers are much appreciated.
