Transform Lives Through Your Support

Dear Friends and Supporters,

At Christ Gospel Ministries, Inc., in partnership with the Council of Reformed Churches of India, we are committed to raising up a generation of godly pastors and leaders who will proclaim the Gospel and shepherd God’s people with wisdom, integrity, and compassion. Our Pastoral Training and Leadership Program equips untrained pastors and aspiring leaders with the biblical foundation, practical skills, and spiritual formation needed to become certified, legal clergies. Your generous support makes this transformative work possible.

URGENT NEED IN INDIA

 

In India, there are over 150,000 full-time Christian workers, with approximately 100,000 pastoring local churches. However, 90% of these pastors lack access to adequate theological training, Many Indian pastors come from humble backgrounds with little formal education—often no more than high school level or less and no seminary training. This educational gap leaves them ill-equipped to handle the complexities of ministry, leading to challenges in teaching sound doctrine, providing pastoral care, and leading churches effectively. Your support addresses this critical need by providing accessible, high-quality training that empowers these leaders to serve with confidence and biblical fidelity.

Through our program, we bridge this divide, ensuring that church leaders receive the theological education and practical skills necessary to build healthy, reproducing congregations.

            Our Mission:

                        Through our Pastoral Training and Leadership Program, we empower men and women to answer God’s call to ministry. By providing rigorous                                      theological education, hands-on ministry training, and spiritual mentorship, we prepare leaders to serve churches, plant ministries, and reach                                      communities with the love of Christ. In collaboration with the Council of Reformed Churches of India, our graduates receive certification as                                        ordained clergy, recognized for official ministry roles in India and beyond.

                        Your donations directly impact:

  •         Training untrained pastors to lead with biblical faithfulness.
  •         Equipping leaders to plant churches and share the Gospel in underserved areas.
  •         Providing resources for spiritual growth and practical ministry skills.
  •         Ensuring graduates are certified as legal clergies, ready to serve with authority and integrity.
 

              Why Your Support Matters

                       The rapid growth of the Church in India outpaces the availability of trained leaders. With 90% of pastors lacking theological education and many                               having only basic high school-level schooling or less, there is a pressing need for programs like ours. Your contributions help bridge this gap by                                 funding:

  •         Theological Education: Courses in Scripture, Reformed theology, and hermeneutics to ground leaders in God’s Word (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
  •         Practical Training: Workshops in preaching, counseling, church administration, and evangelism to prepare leaders for real-world ministry.
  •         Spiritual Formation: Mentorship and spiritual disciplines to foster Christ-like character and humility (Philippians 2:5-8).
  •         Certification Process: Assessments and ordination endorsements through the Council of Reformed Churches of India, ensuring legal clergy status.
  •         Accessible Resources: Scholarships, study materials, and online learning platforms to make training available to all.

            Your gift empowers leaders to transform lives, strengthen churches, and advance the Kingdom of God

"An untrained pastor in a rural Indian village, struggled to lead his small congregation without formal training. Through your support, he completed our program, gained a deep understanding of Scripture, and earned his clergy certification. Today, Sanjay leads a thriving church and mentors other aspiring pastors."
