I live in Kanpur, a city buzzing with life, industry, and the constant rhythm of trains and trucks. As I walk through its busy streets, I see a mix of factories, marketplaces, and neighborhoods filled with people from every walk of life. Kanpur is one of the largest cities in Uttar Pradesh, and the hum of commerce reminds me of the many opportunities to serve and shine God’s light here.

India is a land of astonishing diversity. Thousands of ethnic groups, hundreds of languages, and an intricate caste system shape every part of daily life. Even here in Kanpur, I see contrasts that weigh on my heart: wealth and poverty, devotion and skepticism, tradition and modernity.

What burdens me most are the children—the countless little ones across India with no home, no safety, and no one to care for them. Walking past train stations and crowded streets, I feel the weight of this brokenness, but I also see God stirring hearts. I believe He is raising up His people here in Kanpur to bring hope, healing, and His truth to every neighborhood.

I am here to pray, to serve, and to follow Jesus’ lead. I long to see Kanpur transformed—not by human effort, but by His Spirit, touching families, schools, and marketplaces, restoring broken hearts, and showing everyone that true hope and peace are found in Him alone.

- Pray for the children of Kanpur, especially those without homes or families, that they would find safety, care, and the hope of Jesus in their lives.
- Pray and ask God to soften the hearts of the people around me, across every caste, community, and neighborhood, so they might encounter His love and truth.
- Pray for boldness and wisdom for myself and other followers of Jesus in Kanpur, that we may share the Gospel in our homes, markets, and workplaces, bringing His light to dark places.
- Omba na uwainue viongozi na watenda kazi katika makanisa na mienendo yetu, ukimwomba Mungu awaimarishe kwa ujasiri, utambuzi, na ulinzi usio wa kawaida wanapowafunza wengine na kupanda jumuiya za imani.
- Pray for a fresh wave of prayer and revival to sweep through Kanpur, touching every street, neighborhood, and heart, so that God’s Kingdom would advance in power, love, and truth.
