About Life of Light Mission: Rayed Redemption Ministry’s Light of Life Mission will respond to the needs of the people in India, and will serve people through local outreach, medical care, disaster relief, training and discipleship.
Most of the over 400 million people in India live on less than $1 per day. And almost half of the children suffer from malnourishment – the highest rate in the world. Daily over 5000 children under the age of five years old die from preventable diseases. While progress is visible in parts of India much of the country still suffers extreme poverty, malnutrition, disease and illiteracy.
The Mission will focus on the following Ministries;
1. CHILDREN’S MINISTRY
The number of homeless and hungry children in India reaches into the millions. Children’s Ministries will be a vital part of Rayed Redemption Light of Life Mission’s outreach program. The children’s ministry will help feed the hungry, clothe the naked, care for the sick, bring hope to the hopeless and free those that are in bondage. Above all, we will be educating the children about the glory and love of God.
The children’s ministry will provide assistance to orphans and at risk children through our sponsor program which we have a goal of caring for more than 5,000 children in need. Moneys received for the children’s ministry will be sent directly to India for these children to receive food, shelter and an education. A recurring gift of $35 per month will supports a child. In addition to child sponsorships, one-time contributions provide children with useful gifts such as personal care items, immunizations, clothing and mosquito nets. Mr. Akrura Naik will also ministers to 150 children through a weekly food distribution program where we will distribute rice, lentils and vitamins to each child and teach them Bible stories, to demonstrate how God’s love will help change and structure, as well reach out to the parents and attempt to soften their hearts.
The goal of the children’s ministries is to provide effective Christian mentoring and Biblical teachings in their lives for the next generation. Your gifts and prayers for the children cared for by Light of Life Mission will be magnified as they learn about Christ and share His gospel with their families and communities.
2. CHURCH PLANTING
While the Children’s Ministry is a vital part of our program, we will also focus on church planting and sharing the Gospel with the unreached people in India, where more than 80% of the people have never heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We will establish a team of dedicated church planters who will be starting new ministries and reaching out to this group of people in the unreached regions of India sharing the Gospel and helping provide for the needs of people in the villages that they will be serving. The church planters will also help identify at risk children who can be rescued and or sponsored through the Children’s Ministry. They will also involve themselves and help with the Prison Ministry, preaching and corresponding with those that have a need to learn about Jesus Christ as well teach and minister to prisoners family members.
You will be able to help support and grow this ministry by supporting a church planter with a gift of $200 a month.
3. LEADERSHIP AND COUNSELING TRAINING
Training effective leaders and counselors is vital to the continued outreach of any ministry. In ministry Leaders and Counselors are a necessity to teach and shepherd as well beginning ministries in new areas.
Rayed Redemption Ministry has a counseling and leadership training program which all Leaders are required to participate in. New Christian Leaders will be trained through this program in order to properly go out and spread the name of Jesus to un-reached areas.
