Celebrating Our Freedom

By

As we approach Veteran’s Day, all of us here at RIMI want to say THANK YOU to all the men and women who have given themselves to protect our country from those who would seek to harm us.  You sacrifice of time is greatly appreciated and we salute you.

As we celebrate those who have given us the freedom to freely worship, let us also celebrate the one whose ultimate sacrifice gives us not just freedom here on Earth, but freedom to enjoy eternity with the all-mighty Creator.  Jesus’ one-time sacrifice on the cross has paid the price for our sins and allows us to call God, “Abba, Father”.

Our goal as a ministry is to bring this message to all parts of this earth, especially those areas of South Asia with little or no Gospel work.  We are encouraged daily by the fact that you are praying and supporting on a regular basis to meet the ongoing needs of the ministry.  We are asking God to work through His people to give special gifts of $500,000 before December 31st to meet various pressing needs of the ministry such as Nursing school project, completion of church halls, major repair works on various buildings, an upgraded sound system for the seminary conference hall, completion of the seminary married students’ housing, purchase of land for Bible colleges, and continued service of the poor through various community development programs. I am asking all of you to be generous with a special gift. Also share the ministry of RIMI with your families-children and grandchildren. I am also asking all of our board members and ambassadors to be generous and mobilize friends to donate for ministry.

Any gift would be a great blessing. Thank you.

In Christ,

Saji Lukos
Founder and President

PS. Please continue to pray for Mony and me and we travel throughout India over the next month and a half, returning home just before Christmas.

Injustice against women is increasing in South Asia.  In addition to the increasing rate of rape, 2011 records show kidnappings and abductions of women were up 19.4%, women being killed in disputes over dowry payments by 2.7%, torture by 5.4%, molestation by 5.8% and trafficking by an alarming 122% over the previous year.  With the compassion of Christ, RIMI is empowering women.
