AlongSide Hindustan Institiute of Missions in Orissa, India

Over the past 18 months we have become well acquainted with Nicolas Christ Das, his wife Bandana and their son, Abishek, as they have embarked on a great venture of faith. God spared Nicolas’ life one traumatic evening when a group of radicals beat him unconscious and threw him into the forest thinking he was dead. That was 12 years ago. Nicolas knows God had a reason for sparing his life. In February 2007 I had the privilege of attending the inauguration of the Hindustan Institute of Missions (HIM) in Cuttack, Orissa founded by Nicolas in the very same neighborhood I had visited several times back in the early 70’s with Operation Mobilization.
