The 12 Days of Christmas are traditionally observed from December 25th to January 6th. This marks the period of time between Christ’s birth and the day of Epiphany (or Three Kings’ Day), when the wise men visited and celebrated God incarnate.
In 2015, we began training Lok, who lives in Siliguri. Since then, we have watched God transform him into a movement leader with a Great Commission and Great Commandment mindset. In the early years, Lok was so excited about what he was learning that he could not keep himself from sharing our training with others, even before he had finished learning all five phases himself. Lok’s practice was to gather leaders wherever he could in India and train them. But as Lok studied Jesus’ Pathway to Multiplication, he discovered that it is more effective to raise up a team of trainers. Soon he had teams of trainers in different areas of India, Nepal, and now Bangladesh. He has brought together men and women from these regions who have a heart to see the gospel shared with the unreached peoples throughout the world.
Now Lok’s focus is on strengthening these teams and identifying new areas that will benefit from the KR training. He has a heart for people groups like the Santali, Nepali, Rajbongshi, and Musahar people. He wants to see churches planted and to see them reaching across cultural and language barriers to share Christ. He has incorporated outreaches with each of his trainings and encourages people to share Christ with unbelievers they know.
Praise God for the amazing work he is doing through Lok’s teams of trainers. In 2024, they trained: Phases 1–3 in Itahari, Nepal; Phases 2–3 in Taplejung, Nepal; and Phases 2–3 in all eight divisions of Bangladesh.
