Slum Ministry in India

Mumbai, India contains one of the largest slums in the world - about 6 million people. Many of the 16,500 Gospel for Asia missionaries minister to those dwelling in these places across Asia. Though they have found despair in the broken dreams of large cities, they can have victory in Christ! The native missionaries live at a low economic level themselves. Their cost of living expense is only about $700 a year, so they are not seen as rich foreign hypocrites who preach equality, but do not live it. Please consider donating toward this ministry.

Preaching your brand of supersition to those in desperate situations is very underhanded.

@DocUnsane How so? Most people would neglect these people, or worse, abuse them and enslave their children, but these missionaries are giving them hope and even helping them out physically too with school and medical clinics, etc.

This is pure bullshit, these guys are there to make money. India does nto need Jesus, they need clean water, food, shelter, and support of the government.

Missonary go to poor countries, one hand they give them water, and say jesus gave it to them. They are there to convert not to care, and provide means for them to survive on their own.

Why don't you help them without coercing them to believe in your particular religion.

It is very opportunistic. People in this situation would believe anything you told them.

Doesn't that just look fun? I bet they have all the fun in the world

Why dont you want the poor to be free from poverty, disease and death. Jesus is a far greater gift to the poor than food. As christians should, I give away 10% of my monthly income and I have had no financial trouble even during recession. I even got a job that pays well when others were losing theirs. It is not about following any popular religion . It is a relationship with Jesus who is alive today.

this is light and hope to the slum dweller. it is good news not an agenda. that God loves the poor and remembers them.

[demotee]

Gods love for the poor is not a conspiracy. It is a fact. Suffering is in this world because of our sinfulness and rebelliousness against God. God will not interfere with our free will- our right to choose between right and wrong. This law is imprinted on our conscience. sin brings death. Christ sets us free from death, the price of sin, through his death on the cross.

@kingofthenight.. hunger of the body is fed by bread or chappathi.. hunger of the spirit, only by Gods love. JESUS is the way out of the misery and poverty that slum dwellers and all people experience. He gives hope and courage to outcastes to face their suffering. If you can fill the slum dwellers hearts with peace and hope - go ahead. Once you have done that come and share it with us. If not it is wise to keep silent.

Why can they not just help ? why tell them about Jesus, true as a christian you are required to teach of jesus, but are you not doing double talk, on one hand you help them and than you say jesus or god loves you. In essence I belive the missionary are doing good work, and the world do need people like this, but do it straight from the pure heart, not with hidden agenda.
