Holy Spirit at Work: Equip India Training Empowers Church Growth in Kerala

KOCHI, KERALA, INDIA - Despite global challenges, the work of the Holy Spirit is evident in the growth of churches through ministries like Equip India. Pastor Paulson Stephen from Kochi, Kerala, praises Equip India for enabling him to train his congregation in evangelism through their Witness Without Fear (WwF) workshops.

With 15 years of church ministry experience, Pastor Stephen attests to the WwF method's effectiveness in reaching diverse age groups and religious backgrounds, leading to significant church growth. Within three years of implementing the training, his local church added 52 new members, all due to the effective witnessing of his trained believers. He anticipates even more growth in the current year.

As an example of this impact, Pastor Stephen shared the story of Jerome, a fisherman who, after hearing the Gospel from a trained church member, committed his life and that of his four family members to the Lord. Jerome has become an evangelist in his community, truly a "fisher of men." This testimony underscores the power of effectively equipping church members to share their faith.
