Pipalpada - a church plant

One of the church plants out of Parsari church is Pipalpada. This is a story of the first couple who came from that village. For ages, this lady was never well. She was being tormented by evil spirits. She experienced pains and aches all over her body. She took medical treatment and went to several places seeking help but suffered without much relief.

People living nearby, who believed in Jesus Christ, brought her to the church at Parsari and we all prayed together. God touched her the very moment and that was the end of her misery. She went back and began to tell other people the great things God did in her life.

The news of her healing spread across the village and within a year, over 40 people were walking to this church in Pipalpada.

After initial hiccups, this couple began a church service in the village and today they have over 150 people in the congregation! The pastor comes and teaches the Word, but we pray for the people and visit them.

Now we are praying to build a building to accommodate the people. Please pray that God would give us space and building so that we can safely accommodate more people.
