Blessings in Jesus Name.

Today we had been to two villages of the nearby district of Thoothukudi.

We distributed in two local churches asking the people to come over there.
Almost in one church we gave to 19 widows and one person had not come, so that church pastor will give it tomorrow. We also provided morning breakfast to these 20 widows.
In the next church we gave it to 15 poor people.
These people who received it were so thankful. To all the sponsors of GNF ministries.

This time we provided for these 35 people groceries and 10kg of rice each but because they are all single we provided one month groceries for one person a head.

Please continue to pray for us and India especially this week number of cases of covid19 in Palayamkottai is increasing. Only our Lord should protect each one of us.

Love and regards to all the sponsors.
God bless

We reached back home by 3pm and God was so good in leading us through the travel and to give to the right family.
Please continue to pray for us.

Our love and prayers to all GNFMinistries sponsors.

Greetings to you in Jesus name.

Today we had been to Kallidaikurichi, to two villages which are 60km far off, to distribute the grocery items. 30 poor families belonging to that local church and few Hindu families received the package.

For other 10 families they were not able to come because of lockdown no transport facility so we went door to door to give them the grocery package and 10kg rice bag.
So totally today we had given to 40 poor families.

Thanks for the special prayer and prayers made it possible for us to go safely and come back in spite of lockdown. Monday planning to go to the next village so please continue to pray.

God bless
Daniel and Victoria.

Today we had sent our assistant pastor Mahibalan to the village called Ukarankottai which is quite far from our place to a local church and only 12 poor families attend that church. As they are below poverty they had asked groceries plus 10kg rice to run their families so today regular groceries and rice were provided for them.

In Ukarankottai the pastor of the church and his mother in the photo was one of the child of the Good News Mission orphanage and he was in the home for nearly 10 years. After these years he went to his work and received the call of God came to this place and started the church.
Our hearts are filled with joy because one of the orphanage home child now a pastor is being supported with groceries for a month.

We thank our Lord and sponsors of GNFM that everyday poor families are able to eat.

Continue to pray for his church also as it is quite hard to do ministry in that area, and thanks to all the sponsors

Hope and trust our gracious Lord has been good for the past days and the situation is getting better there.
Here they have started relaxing a little by opening small shops and the timing has been changed to 6am to 5 pm. But only now the situation is becoming bad in India. The virus is spreading fast, as no social distancing is maintained.

Today we had been to a nearby place and 30 poor pastors doing village ministries had come. They are totally in struggle because of this lockdown as no tithes but they have to pay their house rent, electricity etc. because they usually get offering from their believers in the form of rice or vegetables and very few give them tithes. But last month nothing was possible but Lord had led them in spite of their worst difficulties.
These pastors had asked us instead of grocery items it would be good if they are provided as cash of 2500/- each to overcome their difficulties.
So today they all had come to a local church and they belong to pastors care cell.
We provided them each Rs2500/- they were very happy and blessed and they all conveyed their gratitude of thanks to Good News Friend Ministries.

This weekend and next week we will distribute grocery parcels in three other villages which is quite far from our place.
Once we distribute we would send you all the details.
Please keep us in prayer as only now corona has started spreading fast in Tamilnadu.

Our love and prayers to all the sponsors of GNF ministries.

Blessings
Daniel and Victoria.

Greetings in the sweet Name of Jesus Christ.

Today morning we went to nearby small church where we distributed the grocery parcel to 9 poor families and 1 to the local church pastor Peter.
Indeed people had no words except praised the name of the Lord for the timely help extended to them.

Later today 20 grocery parcels were distributed in a village called Rediarpuram. In the video I introduce church pastor Mahibalan whom we asked to help us in distributing these 20 parcels because there was tight police curfew and outsiders other than those belonging to that village are not allowed to go inside the village. He had distributed all the 20 parcels and the photos are attached.

Once again we thank you for the burdened heart that you and the sponsors of Good News Friends Ministries had for the poor needy people of south India.
Every day many more people in the surrounding villages come and ask the local pastor for help because a lots more people are suffering without food and labor. Government provides 15kgs rice for very poor families per month but just that is not sufficient for a family of even 3 for the entire month.
Please do pray that the Lord should show His mercy to our people and many more families to be helped out so that they could at least one proper meal every day.

Brother and sister regarding helping the poor 30 pastors we will be able to give them after the lockdown because only then we could ask them to come to the church share the word of God, give them the gift (money) and provide them good meal.

I myself and Victoria have permission to go out on Tuesday and Friday from 9am to 1pm so I think on those days we will be able to help the poor people and in places of strict curfew I will make a video introducing the local pastor so that he could distribute it.
Once again we thank you and all the sponsors of GNFM for the love and gratitude extended towards our people of south India. Praying for you and GNFM sponsors. Please pray for us that the Lord should protect us as we go and do the ministry of helping the needy people during this period of crisis and COVID19.

Thank you very much too all supporters in Netherlands

Greetings in Jesus Name!
Yesterday morning 6.30am we travelled to a village called Keelapaatam to a small church run by pastor Joshua and we had asked 42 poor families to come one by one and get the grocery items. These 42 people came from surrounding 3 villages of Keelapaatam, Manapadu and Sivanthipatti.
In each church where we went one parcel was given to that pastor’s family.

Truly it’s a great ministry feeding and helping the needy in the time of need especially this lockdown period.

Blessings
Daniel and Victoria
