You cannot avoid seeing and hearing about the tragedy that hit many countries on Boxing Day 2004.
One of the countries that is also badly affected is India. Revival Ministries UK has a ministry office in Chennai India called Revival Ministries India. Our office is situated about 15 km from the area that was tragically affected.
The update from our office in India is that there are many aid organisations already working in the area.
There is a need however for clothing, especially women's saries. Most of their possessions especially their clothes have been washed away.
Many organisations are sending aid of various kinds.
We do not want to duplicate our aid and so we have embarked on a campaign to raise money to purchase saries for the women that have been affected.
You can make your contribution by calling our office:

In July 2004 Pastor Dia Moodley was invited to Chennai India to host his first International Crusade and Pastor's and Leader's Conference.
It was Pastor Dia's first trip to India and it was made possible by the generous financial and prayer contribution of his church.
Pastor Dia never thought that he would be preaching in India but through God's divine intervention, a door was opened for him to go to India and host a crusade and conference.
Thousands attended nightly and during the crusade approx. 500 people accepted Jesus as their Saviour and many more were healed of physical conditions.
Amongst those who were healed was a lady who was healed of menstrual problem. She was on her way to the doctor and was walking past the crusade. She was healed on the roadside after hearing the preaching of the Word.
A Muslim man was healed of a leg condition and gave his heart to the Lord.
A lady who could not bend her knees ended up running after Pastor Dia had prayed for her. Probably one of the greatest miracles as well was that through this crusade local churches and denominations were able to come together for this crusade. It was something that had not been achieved before. We give God all the glory.
As result of the success of this crusade, the Lord instructed Pastor Dia to open an office in India and to continue to host crusades and conferences.
In August 2004, Revival Ministries India was opened to organize, set up and administrate all our crusades and conferences in India. The crusades are aimed at the unbeliever and the conferences are aimed at sharpening the believer.
Our next crusade in India is in December 2005 in Marina Beach Chennai. It is called the "Festival of Prosperity and Success." This will be a three day crusade.
Pastor Dia is believing for a minimum of 5000 souls over the three days of the crusade.
You can be a part of this awesome event.
We are looking for people to be a part of the team that travels to India in December 2005.
*We need people to be a part of the prayer and intercession team, counsellors, preparation and set up for the crusade, worship team, musicians, camera and audio work, etc.
*You can also help by contributing financially to this crusade. You can help us in erecting an altar for someone in India to be healed, delivered and set free.
Your seed is important and therefore we ask that you prayerfully consider sowing into this crusade. Call our office for more details or obtain our bank details from the covenant partner section of this website.

Praise God that even at the sound of the title, there is excitement! When the Lord planted Revival Ministries UK in July 2001, part of the vision that the Lord gave Pastor Dia was that of a multicultural church. A congregation made up of people from around the world, worshipping and praising God together. As we look at our congregation today we can see this vision rapidly coming to pass. Our church family is made up of people from South Africa, India, Malaysia, United Kingdom, China, Philippines, Zambia, Nigeria, Ghana, Zimbabwe and the Caribbean Island of St. Kitts. To celebrate this unity we held a special service in December 2002 to celebrate out Lord and Saviour together, All Nations under One God!
Powerful testimonies were given, each in that nation's mother tongue. Translations of parts of their testimonies are shown below.
