Gospel for Asia, American Family Radio team up for Christmas campaign

Two Christian ministries are joining forces in an effort to help the lowest and poorest caste of people in India.Gospel for Asia (GFA) and American Family Radio (AFR) recently kicked off an initiative that allows people to provide items for the poorest of the poor in India.In that country, people known as the Dalits-or untouchables-are considered subhuman by many.The shunned caste group has a population of over 300 million.The Christmas campaign initiated by the two ministries will allow donors to reach out to this group by purchasing practical gifts for families such as chickens, sewing machines, and water buffaloes. GFA's Chris Brewer says the initiative can have an eternal impact."There's such abject poverty in that country, hundreds of millions of people are subject to that poverty," he points out. "So the opportunity that we have to get involved in their lives through this program we're going to be doing is a tremendous open door to share the gospel and make a difference, not only in their lives now, but to make a difference for eternity."Currently, GFA has more than 16,000 native missionaries working throughout Asia.
