Praise God, greetings to everyone!
The Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex encompasses 13 counties with in the state of Texas, USA. Residents of the area also refer to it as DFW, or the Metroplex. It is the economic and cultural hub of the region of North (North Central) Texas, and it is the largest inland metropolitan area in the United States. It has been more than 30 years India Pentecostal Assembly serving the Lord in the DFW area. The church had gone through several transitions in its course of time, but always committed to what God has called to fulfill through the church for His Kingdom. I am considering it as a privilege to serve His church in the role of the lead pastor along with other servant-leaders in the church. I am blessed with the presence and prayers of previous pastors as I took over the responsibility in the year 2019. We begin this year with the theme, “Grow in Christ and bear fruit for Him” based on John 15: 4-7, “Abide in Me, and I in you……and it shall be done for you.” We are focusing more on the growth in our own spiritual life as well as in our community, and to bear fruit to bring glory to God. To achieve this goal we pray together and seek the face of the Lord in fasting to lead us through planning and preparation. With the guidance and the help of the Holy Spirit we are able to select our leaders to lead Sunday school, Youth ministry, Sisters fellowship and outreach missions. Our community outreach involves: volunteer help with homeless community, distributing goodies and tracts to the families and praying with them, sending missionaries to various parts of the world, VBS ministry.. .and so forth. We set a goal to reach out to 200 people with the Gospel this year. We are thankful to God who enabled us to reach out to 20/30 people within this few months, we are looking forward and depending on God to touch many more lives with the love of God. We are equipping our teens and youths to see the world through the Word by doing Bible studies and seminars and also through monthly youth programs. As the church is located in Irving, we are planning to do the community outreach in partnership with the Fire and Police department and also with the Faith-Health service to serve the community better.
