What an awful experience it must be to suffer abandonment at age seven, and then find yourself at an orphanage! That is exactly what happened to Vivek Dindorkar as a child. But because of the Christian mentoring he received in the Junnar Boys Home, Vivek grew up to be a committed Christian who has now become the district superintendent of the Maharashtra District of the Assembly of God denomination in western India.

Vivek warmly received me when he picked me up at my hotel to go to Junnar for our water filter training conference. And we hit it off right from our first meeting! Vivek shared his testimony with me. He had to overcome great difficulties, even resisting his call into the ministry for a time. But the Lord confirmed his calling again and again, and finally Vivek yielded and completed his education at Southwestern India Bible College that shares the same campus where he grew up as an orphan.

Now this brother demonstrates great zeal for the Kingdom of God as he serves the people of his district. He has a wonderful vision to help the poor and to reach the lost. The biosand and Sawyer filter training really impressed him! Now he is developing a strategy to reach many people with this safe water technology.

What a great story of God’s love and grace!
