Encouragement Through Bicycles?
Today in our lesson we are focusing on encouragement. Some of the greatest encourage-
ments have been positive effects of this global pandemic. We have been able to share the
Gospel of Christ in new ways online. For the past year, each Sunday night (with the excep-
tion of a few) we have conducted a digital fellowship with preachers in Andhra Pradesh,
India.
Our daily Facebook video messages put us in touch with one of the Indian preacher’s sons,
Praveen. Praveen asked me if I could teach his friends the Gospel. I thought this was im-
possible until he sent me a zoom link. This is where I met his whole family, including his
uncle Venkat who, at 25 years old, speaks 5 languages including English. He has translated
for us during every study. As Praveen has gone to college, our studies have shifted to edifi-
cation for his father Abraham and 9 other preachers who gather weekly to take part in our
studies.
Bill and Sue Reed have taken part in helping with these studies and, at present, Bill is
teaching the preachers from the book of Romans. The Indian preachers are now teaching
the group as well, and Venkat translates the lessons for us into English. We have witnessed
the growth of some of the younger preachers. The Indian brethren have requested anyone
interested in joining in the study from Deerfoot to feel free to attend. It is an eye-opening
and faith-building experience (please see Richard for Zoom information). Time difference
means we meet at 9:00 p.m. Sunday evenings, while they meet at 7:30 a.m. Monday.
Recently, the men requested bicycles as they travel on foot to surrounding villages holding
Gospel Meetings. The elders agreed, and we just distributed 10 bicycles to the preachers
on Sunday. We purchased them and had them shipped under budget. Each bicycle, with
shipping and including a bike lock, cost us $140 USD per bicycle. Attached are the pic-
tures of the distribution to the preachers and their wives. They are overjoyed and want us
to thank you all for them!

THANK YOU
Deerfoot's "Second Outdoor Singing"
was a success! Thanks to all the mem-

chilly toward the end, but everyone
seemed to enjoy the singing and fel-
lowship.
Special thanks to our song leaders; the
Allens and Foshees for helping with
the food; JJ and Alex for setting up the
screen and sound system; and Skip for
providing security.
Steve Putnam
