Paul writes concerning the Ephesians that he has “not stopped giving thanks” for them in prayer. This weekend visiting pastor Samuel Stephens of the India Gospel League will testify to the role that prayer plays in the growth of the kingdom, in the first as well as the twenty-first century. About IGL and Rev. Stephens The story of the India Gospel League begins with one man’s conversion to the Christian faith through faithful missionaries nearly 150 years ago. Today the ministry stands firmly on the same vision and calling, to bring the Gospel and the love of Jesus Christ to unreached peoples and through effective discipleship extend God’s reign over the nations. Rev. Stephens is the third generation leader of the India Gospel League, which was founded in 1948 by Samuel’s grandfather, Rev. Devaprasad Stephens. He passed the ministry to Samuel’s father Rajah, who in 1971 established the ministry as a Registered Society. Samuel D. Stephens served as a barefoot pastor until his father’s death in 1988, when he assumed leadership of the ministry.
