| What a Difference--Six Years After the Tsunami
On December 26, 2004, the people of South Asia from Indonesia to India saw their world turn upside down, first by violent tremors and then by cataclysmic waves. Whole families, homes, schools, farms, fisheries and entire communities vanished.

Featured Pastor
Name: Baburao Beernidi
City: Santamaguluru Addar
Church: Santamaguluru Addar
Pastor Baburao Beernidi is one of Mission of Joy’s favorite stories. He came to our orphanage as a small child, abandoned by family and relatives. He studied hard and when he came of age, committed his life to Jesus Christ and serving Him. We sent him to Bible College in Tamil Nadu and several years later he returned to Pastor a small church in Santamaguluru Addar. He has brought ten Hindus in this village to Jesus Christ in his short time of ministry. He has a wife, Mary Kumar, and they have one son, Benny, now 5 years of age. He has a heart for the lost and serves tirelessly among the poor. Perhaps you might like to sponsor this missionary family for $50 a month and help bring the Gospel to the people of this poor village.
