About us . . .

Dear Friend,

Thank you for visiting this website today.  We are glad you were able to spend a few minutes of your time with us.

Please do not assume that we are very well to do and do not have anything to worry about or be concerned about.  Nothing can be further than the truth.  We are an average middle class couple and yes, we do have our problems and difficulties.

However, the difference is in our believing that we have a God in whom we can depend on in times of trouble.  Psalm 23 says 'Though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil for His Rod and His Staff will comfort me.  God is our refuge and our fortress and in Him we can trust.

Now a little about ourselves.  We were both born in the western part of India, city of Pune to be more precise.  Jaya is a nurse by profession and through this God opened doors for us to come to the city of Manchester, England in the year 2001.  I work full time in a hospital and God is blessing us each day and every day we wake up to find out how He is going to bless us today.

While we were in India, we were blessed with a wonderful Church (The New India Church of God (NICOG) based in Pune.  God blessed us with a powerful man of God - Pastor Thomas Lincoln.  He was a source of great inspiration and strength, almost like a father to us.  He passed away on 9th July, 2007 and since then his wife Usha Lincoln has taken on this responsibility.

In Manchester, we are members of the 'Wythenshawe Community Church' led by Pastor Mike O'Connor and his wife Mary O'Connor.  They have an amazing testimony and have been a source of great teaching and encouragement to us both.  If you are based in Manchester, England we encourage you to pay our church a visit.

We have two sons Glenn and Myles.  Jaya's father is a Pastor in India and a wonderful servant of God.  If you can understand the Marathi Language, you can listen to his radio ministry online by clicking here.

In obedience of God's command we now keep our doors open for anyone who is in need of prayer each Saturday morning between 10 am and 12 noon.  You are most welcome to come and share your needs so we can stand with you in prayer.

Please feel free to send us your prayer requests and we will consider ourselves fortunate to pray along with you.  Do also send us your testimonies about how God is helping and blessing you in your life.  With your permission, we will also publish them on this website so others can be encouraged too.

Our mission is to give God Glory for everything that happens in our lives and the lives of others.  This is not about us but about Him and Him alone.

Be encouraged today and learn to depend upon Him for everything, He will never fail you.

God bless and keep in touch.

Yours truly,

Fabian and Jaya Swamy
