In 1988, Pastor B.I. and Jancy Samuel received the call from God to move their young family from the safety of their Christian community in Southern India to the state of Gujarat in the north. With no knowledge of the culture or language, and with just ten dollars in their pockets, they uprooted their lives and took a huge step of faith as they chose to obey Christ and go.
For over three decades, Bless Asia Network has been a beacon of hope and transformation in South Asia. Our journey began with a simple yet profound vision: to raise and equip effective national leaders who would spread the gospel and plant churches among unreached people groups.
Through God’s grace and the unwavering dedication of our team, we have achieved remarkable milestones. We’ve trained, equipped, and sent out hundreds of frontline leaders who are making a lasting impact in their communities. These leaders are serving among diverse unreached people groups, bringing the life-changing message of Jesus Christ to those who have never heard.
Our vision for the future is ambitious yet attainable: to train and send 3,000 church planters and frontline leaders before 2030. This will enable us to reach even more unreached people with the gospel and accelerate the growth of the Church in South Asia.
