Educating, Equipping & Encouraging India’s Pastors

one conference at a time

Let them know

they’re not alone.

The India Pastors Project hosts pastoral training conferences for the poorest and most isolated of India’s pastors—equipping them with Biblical teachings, spiritual mentorship, and Christian community, all at zero cost to them.

India’s population has reached nearly 1.5 billion.

Less than 3% knows the love of Jesus.

EDUCATE.

ENCOURAGE.

EQUIP.

REPEAT.

Many of India’s pastors have zero access to:

  • Formal Biblical Education

  •  Teaching Resources

  • Spiritual Development & Mentorship

Most face extreme poverty and

extreme loneliness.

Together, 

we’re changing that.

These faithful men are passionate and eager

to know & share the love of Christ.

They just need a bit of help.

Thanks to you, extreme poverty

doesn’t have to be a barrier anymore.

DISCOVER YOUR IMPACT

"'What can I do for Jesus?

Many people told me you have to be

educated and wealthy.

But in these conferences

I have come to realize that

Jesus called all kinds of people,

including the poor and uneducated like myself.

I will preach the gospel to the people.

We’re Built On

Leveraging Every. Single. Dollar.

1

When the difference between an entire village hearing the gospel or not is only $11, you can’t help but treat every dollar with the utmost care.

Local Leadership & Guidance

2

We believe collaborating with local leaders—who know their culture, customs & community better than we ever will—is the best way to empower a nation and create sustainable change.

Real Relationships

3

The India Pastors Project training conferences are so much more than a gathering. They’re the formation of a global family—one we’re endlessly honored to be a part of.

A Whole Lot of Prayer

4

We constantly pray for our Indian brothers & sisters. And we feel the constant prayers of both our Indian family, and donors like you.

Thank you.
