GVM INTERNATIONAL
OUR MINISTRIES
1.Personal Evangelism
Jesus says in Matthew 28:19-20, "Go therefore and make disciples of
all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things I have
commanded you."Teaching the lost is the work the Lord has commanded
each of us to do. Today we are debtors to every non-Christian because
we have the good news that can save their soul.Paul says in Romans
1:14, "I am a debtor both to the Greeks and to the Barbarians, both to
the wise and to the unwise." This places us under obligation to share
the gospel with the lost so they can be saved.
2. Outreach Ministry
The ministry of Jesus Christ is an outreach ministry. Each of the
four Gospels ends with a commission from Christ to His church to
carry the Gospel message to the ends of the earth (Matt. 28:18-20;
Mark 16:15; Luke 24:46-49; John 20:21-23; and see Acts 1:8). G.V.M
international provides services to the hurting from all walks of life
with kindness and gentleness with respect to your intrinsic dignity
as a human being.
3.Pastors Conference & Leadership Classes
" Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the
LORD thy God which teaches thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the
way that thou shouldest go.? Isaiah 48:17. Leadership Classes are
organized every year to strengthen the preachers as well as the Church
Leaders in south India.
4. Gethsemane Prayer Ministries
We conduct Gethsemane Prayer Ministry in various local churches to
provide a deep understanding about Jesus? teaching on prayer for every
month and gather minimum 100 people from remote villages for training
and equipping to draw them closer to God and show them the power of
the prayer in every day life and create confidence in power of prayer.
Jesus said, " Ask and it shall be given you, seek; and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you" Matt 7:7. Faithful Christians
take prayer requests to the throne of grace always.
5. Campus Ministry
Young people are lost without knowing Jesus Christ, and their future
determines the future of our world They are in need of Christian
relationships and community. GVM Campus Ministry draws university
students into saving, meaningful relationships with God through Jesus
Christ. A typical GVM campus ministry includes small group Bible
studies; leadership training; fellowship, social activities, service
opportunities and missions focus and a weekly Bible study that brings
the whole community together for learning and worship.
6. Church Planting
Church planting is at the very heart of G.V.M ministry as it has been
from the beginning. As people hear the Gospel and respond to it,
churches are planted. Leaders are discipled, trained, and sent out.
Then a chain reaction begins among their own people that reaches
across their nation and out to the world.
7. Vocational Classes
Each individual, being created in the image of God, is of supreme
worth, the dignity and worth of the individual should be respected. We
provide vocational classes to encourage students, men and women to put
their trust in Christ, and to grow toward fullness and maturity in Him
and provide opportunities for citizenship training and character
development for effective participation in the family and society.
These classes lead them to the enrichment of their own life, through
their spiritual, moral, social, intellectual, Physical and aesthetic
development and give them an understanding the changing conditions in
the world from a Christian viewpoint, and to prepare them to think
through their obligations as Christians in new Situations.
