Our State Coordinator and Associate State Coordinator for Gujrat Geo Varghese and Rajan Samuel were clearly guided by the Lord to conduct extensive Promotional/evangelical meeting and musical programme in various cities of Gujarat to evangelize the student community of these centers besides creating an awareness among believers on the need of student ministry in general and ICPF in particular.

The first of such meeting was held in the Catholic Church Community Hall in Nadiad. Despite unfavourable weather over 75 people gathered and God enabled to give a strong message through Jacob Mathew.

Many participants gave their lives to Jesus. Pastor Abraham T. G. and Titus Joseph (staff) organized the meeting.

The second meeting was at Anand on the 16t". Anand is an education center with over 30,000 students hailing from all parts of India as well as few foreign countries. The meeting was held in the town hall and over 350 students participated. Our Lord used Jacob Mathew in a mighty way despite his physical illness and over 70 students stood up and dedicated/rededicated for the Lord.

The next meeting was held at the Methodist Church at Baroda with a student community of over 40,000 of the M.S. University. Over 1300 participated. 36 young people committed their lives to the Lord for the first time in their lives. In all these meetings C. V. Mathai spoke about the ministry of ICPF Jacob Mathew ministered from the word of God. Angelos III (Delhi) team consisting of Finny, Sunny, Denny, James Padavath and Moncy together with two talented singer brothers Jerrin and Jebin from Ahemedabad led songs and worship.
