Gospel for Asia founded by Dr. K.P. Yohannan: Discussing the hunger & needs amid the COVID 19 lockdown, the GFA pastor and congregation used by God to bring relief through grocery distribution.

When the COVID-19 lockdown first went into place, Pastor Bhaskar urged his congregation to look for any ways to help needy families around them. The majority of villagers farm for a living; whether or not they went to bed hungry depended on if they could sell their crops at the market—but the lockdown kept them home. Food was in major demand; rice, tomatoes, potatoes and bottle gourds would be perfect items to distribute.

Pastor Bhaskar and his congregation helped 25 families by providing groceries.

Mohisha, a 48-year-old mother, received a bag of the much-needed groceries.

“I was thinking to whom I shall share my agony that I and my family members are going through,” she said.

“We do not have money to purchase anything that we need. … But today, in the right time, the church provided us vegetables and some other food items. As a family we are deeply grateful to the church pastor and believers for their love and care that they have shown us.”
