Equip India Training Empowers Layperson to Lead Police Officer to Christ

FEROZPUR, PUNJAB, INDIA—Manik Fazal, a Christian from Ferozpur, Punjab, North India, credits an Equip India workshop with empowering him to share his faith for the first time. Attending the training, Manik learned how to share the Gospel effectively and overcome his fear of witnessing. Inspired by the training, Manik felt led to share his faith with his neighbor, a policeman named Lal Bahadur. Despite initial hesitation due to the sensitive political climate in India, Manik took the initiative and, with the support of Pastor George Masih, shared the Gospel with Lal Bahadur.

 Lal Bahadur listened intently and ultimately accepted Christ, promising to attend church and follow Him. According to Manik, Lal Bahadur's life has since been transformed, and he is now sharing his newfound faith with fellow police officers and his staff. Manik and Pastor Masih provided him with a Bible. Manik expressed his gratitude to God for this impactful work and Equip India's role in delivering the training that enabled him to share his faith.
