Beginning of the Jubilee Celebrations

We kick off the final Jubilee celebration of the Nav Jivan Hospital from Monday as we gather together for a time of introspection and attempt towards renewal. Dr. Sam Thomas, Development Associates Initiative (DAI), India - Team Leader along with his wife Mrs Shashi Thomas would be leading us through sessions of Bible studies and prayers.

We would like your prayers during the special sessions. Kindly pray for the following specifics -

1. Help for families to find freedom in Christ.

2. Freedom for families from the bondage of debt and alcohol abuse.

3. Spirit filled lives of families.

4. Dedication in the area of work by staff.

5. Staff especially at the leadership level will be free enough to meditate and pray.

6. Developing a vision for the future.

7. Health and travel of Dr Sam and Mrs Shashi Thomas.

8. Favourable weather.

9. For the maximum number of people to benefit from the messages.

10. Strengthening of the local churches.

Dr Sam Thomas is going to expound on

1. Who can celebrate the Jubilee?

2. What is Jubilee? What does it mean to us?

3. How does Jubilee change us and affect our lifestyle?

I firmly believe that the next one week starting Monday is going to be quite crucial in the future of NJH. We've had a good beginning to our celebrations last year. We had planned quite a lot of things. Due to lots of reasons, we could not achieve many things which we planned.


The significant events has been the finalising of the NJH logo along with the mission and vision of the unit. Kindly cover us in prayers.
