TRANSCRIPT
Dear Friend,
Warm greetings to you in the matchless name of Jesus Christ! It has been some time since I sent a report of our ministry activities. God has been truly good to us. As I write this letter, my heart is overflowing with thanksgiving for His goodness and faithfulness.
Trip to Iceland and NorwayI have just returned from a ten-day trip to Iceland and Norway. Several years ago, I came in contact with a pioneer of Christian television, Erik Erikson of Iceland. He is broadcasting the gospel to Norway, Sweden, Iceland and the United Kingdom. Upon receiving an invitation from Erik, Nations for Jesus made a trip to Norway and Iceland.
In Iceland, I had the privilege of ministering God’s Word at Omega Church. The response was very encouraging. The state religion of Iceland is Lutheran. However, in practice, people have turned away from the Lord and are practicing rituals that have no power. I had the sense that our ministry was very impactful as people watched the service on television throughout Iceland. Erik and I also travelled to Oslo, the capital city of Norway. I had the privilege of sharing the Word of God on Gospel TV’s live broadcasts for four nights. The broadcasts were viewed throughout Scandinavia. People responded to the gospel. We received a number of text messages, phone calls and e-mails requesting prayer for salvation, healing and restoration. A lady who suffered with asthma for 40 years received the healing touch from the Lord. I believe the Lord delivered many people from sin, depression and many physical illnesses.
India Church ConstructionI also want to give you an update on the church construction project by our ministry partner in India. Nations for Jesus has been an instrument of God’s kingdom in building a church in India that will hold over 1,000 people. Construction costs have skyrocketed due to inflation; however, the project is still underway. The local government has discontinued making sand available for all construction projects in the state where the construction is taking place. We are praying this issue will soon be resolved. Please continue to pray that we will receive favor from the local government.
Unprecedented Opportunity to Reach Masses The population of India is 1.2 billion people. Although 83% of the people are Hindu, India also is the home of more than 120 million Muslims, one of the world’s largest Muslim populations. The population also includes Christians, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists. However, less than 2% of the population is Christian. I am burdened for the people of India as most do not know the true God and are worshipping idols.

Lately, television has become a dominant communication medium in India. Of all popular media, television illustrates the power of mass communication to inform, educate and influence the public. It has also played a significant role in the distribution of the gospel around the world. It is still an effective medium to reach masses quickly. It transcends geography, time and space. According to research reports, 50% of the households in India own a TV set and it costs about $3.00 per month to subscribe to 150 channels. One of my immediate goals is to communicate the gospel to the people of the Indian subcontinent. We want to set up TV production facilities in India to produce messages in various languages. We will have to start from scratch. It takes video cameras, a switcher, control units and other production equipment to begin the process. The estimated expense associated with this project is $50,000. I am looking for 500 people who can contribute $100 each towards this project. By His grace, the impact will be enormous. You will share the rewards of winning souls for His kingdom. We cannot put a price tag on each soul.
We live in a revolutionary time of astonishing advances in technology and religious, economic and political upheaval worldwide. Times like this present significant opportunities for the spread of the gospel. The Great Commission is a God-given task for Christians to carry on, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20)
At Nations for Jesus, we are committed to take the whole gospel to the whole world. Will you partner with us to make this happen? I appreciate your prayers and financial support. Yours for the unreached,
Ratna K. Sajja, D. Min. President
