Reaching Out to "India's Shining"

			India is a country of 1.2 billion. It is greatly divided in to poor and rich classes. Let's call them 'Suffering India' and 'Shining India. Most of the evangelistic efforts have been done among the 'Suffering India' only and none for 'Shining India'. David and Sheelah Lall are long time missionaries born and raised in India. Their focus in 2012 is to reach out to  'Shining India'. As a first step they have started working among the 'privileged youth'. A Youth Center is opened in Chandigarh, a major business city in  North India. These young people are either students in the professional colleges or new entrepreneurs. These definitely are the future leaders of India. We want to reach them while they are young, train them to be Christian leaders. A great start has been establishing a weekly youth-friendly worship service. Their next step is to start Business English and Leadership Development classes involving Christian teachers and businessmen from India and United States. This will not only reach the ‘Shining India’ but also empower the today’s privileged youth, which in turn will strengthen the Kingdom. Check out the video… Not much different from youth groups here in the US.
