Tuinuk Gong village and its neighboring village are located along the boundary between India and Burma (Myanmar). The people there are Naga indigenous people. They live in extreme poverty—no electricity, no water supply, no school, nothing. The only help they can expect is from the Christian community. By God’s grace, the Gospel has reached them, and they are grateful for it. But their living conditions are still among the worst anyone can imagine. They are in dire need of our help and support, especially the children who lack proper care, enough food, adequate hygiene, and clothing.

This mission trip will be our first contact with them. We will be a team of six people, and the trip will last five days. We will travel about 12–13 hours by vehicle to reach the last point accessible by road, then trek another 4–5 hours on foot to reach the village.

We have a minimum budget of ₹1.5 lakh (about $1,700 USD) needed for the trip. This amount will cover both our travel expenses and supplies for the children and villagers.

With the funds we receive, we will be providing items such as:

• Food

• Baby food

• General and feminine hygiene products

• Solar lighting

• School supplies

• Gifts for the village children

They are also in dire need of a church building, a simple place with a roof and walls where they can gather and worship. For our future ministry project, we request your prayers and support that God will answer prayers regarding this need.

Our Christmas Message

This Christmas, we’ve decided our Christmas will be different, it won’t be about expensive gifts, fancy clothes, or rich food, but about reaching out to the poor, the forgotten, and the needy. As the world celebrates the birth of Christ under bright lights and decorations, we also want to shine the light of the Gospel and the light of love in action to the poor.

It won’t be the kind of Christmas found in big fancy parties, but one found in the smiles of hungry children, in the joy of those receiving the Gospel, and in the hearts of people realizing that they are not forgotten.

If God leads you, we invite you to be part of this mission through your PRAYERS, GIVING generously, or words of ENCOURAGEMENT. Together, we can make this Christmas truly meaningful, a celebration of love, hope, and faith that reaches beyond borders.
