Pastor Samuel’s Testimony:
God touched and called me when I was 19; immediately I went to bible collage for four years. At Bible College, God filled me with the Holy Spirit. In 1986, I graduated and got married. God called my wife and I into the full time ministry. God has put in our heart to reach the lost for Jesus Christ and tell the world that He is the only one true and living God. Soon after our marriage in February 1986, while we were seeking God where He wants us to go, God placed three cities on our heart; Chennai, Bangalore, and Pondicherry. On the third day God showed a vision to my wife in Isaiah 45:1-6, “This is what the Lord says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him and to strip kings of their armor, to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut: 2 I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron. 3 I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord the God of Israel, who summons you by name. 4 For the sake of Jacob my servant, of Israel my chosen, I summon you by name and bestow on you a title of honor, though you do not acknowledge me. 5 I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me, 6 so that from the rising of the sun to the place of its setting people may know there is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is no other.” The reference of this scripture was in golden Letters in her vision, and God told us to go to Pondicherry. We obeyed God’s voice and arrived in Pondicherry as Missionaries on February of 1987. During that time my son, Blesson, was 40 days old. We did a lot of street ministry and door-to-door evangelizing going to very poor and dangerous places, suffered a lot, times going without food for weeks, having one pair of clothing, no toilet, and no electricity, etc. But God is so faithful to his people. In 1988, we got the land and planted a church in Pondicherry where we now live, have a mission, a church, and do ministry by the grace of God. In 1994, God blessed us with a daughter, Fairen Angelin. When I think all these years how God did everything and is doing and going to do, it’s amazing me. All I want to say is I THANK YOU, LORD!
Pastor Samuel’s vision:
God has called me to pray, preach the Gospel, proclaim Jesus is Lord, and be lead by the Holy Spirit to prove by signs and wonders that God is the only one true God.
Our vision is to see India washed by the blood of the Lamb. I want to reach every part of India, the whole nation, for Jesus.
Equip and disciple all the believers to be soul winners.
Start care cells in every village, town, and city.
How God used New Beginning Fellowship:
In 1998 God gave a vision to Sister Daisy on the house of worship that He wanted them to build to reach the lost and disciple believers. In the vision God showed her how it was to be built and how He would do it. In the vision God showed her that the house would have 18 pillars and three floors. The Lord gave the verse in Zachariah 6:15 “And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the Lord, and ye shall know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you. And this shall come to pass, if ye will diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God.”
Nine years later in 2007, God provided a way to start the house and when the contractor came with the design it had 18 pillars. Sister Daisy’s father laid the foundation of the house of worship.
Five years later in 2012, the pastor of New Beginning Fellowship Church felt God leading him to go to India. During that time Pastor Samuel and Sister Daisy where very discouraged and felt like giving up, join anther ministry, and sell the land where they lived. However, God encouraged them and put on the pastor’s heart to go to Indian instead of going to Africa as he had planned. He saw the vision the Lord gave to Pastor Samuel and Sister Daisy. Through NBFC, a small independent church, God has blessed this ministry beyond their wildest dreams. God has shown that when two like-minded churches come together to reach the world for Jesus, God will do mighty thing to bring it to pass. We thank God for joining us together, and we know that together we will shake the world for Jesus Christ.
June 8, 2013 the mission house’s first floor was completed. This house serves as a temporary church, house for orphans and our family. We see the mission house as a place of refuge for the lost and equip believers to go reach the world. We know our God will provide to complete the house of worship that He has told us to build.
Pastor Blesson Daniel’s Testimony:
Blesson first encounter with the Lord is when he was two years old. He remembers being sick with the chicken pox and asking his mother to teach him to play the keyboard. His mother told him to ask God to teach him. So, Blesson prayed and asked God to teach him. God healed him from chicken pox and taught him how to play the keyboard.
Blesson has been involved in ministry since a young child. He saw all that his parents suffered and went through, so even though he loved God and wanted to serve Him, he didn’t want to do ministry, he just wanted to help them out financially. While in college, God kept tugging on his heart so he obeyed God to all He was calling him to be. Blesson knows that God has called him to preach the gospel under the power of the Holy Spirit to reach India for Jesus, to make and raise up disciples, and plant churches, not only in India but the world. He wants to reach the lost souls until his last breath.
