Movement

“We define a movement as at least 100 new

churches that have multiplied to the fourth generation”.

• We believe that God is a person who has revealed Himself as a Trinity in unity; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; three Persons and yet but one God, eternally existent.
• We believe in the divine inspiration and entire trustworthiness of the Bible, as originally given, and in its supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
• We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, sinless life, vicarious and atoning death, bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
• We believe in the universal sinfulness and lost condition of all men and in their need of redemption through regeneration by the grace of God through faith in Christ alone.
• We believe in the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the work of regeneration and in His present ministry by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
• We believe in the one holy universal Church which is the Body of Christ and to which all true believers belong and in its mission to witness concerning its Head, Jesus Christ, sharing the gospel to all nations.

I’m Paresh and  I was born and brought up in a traditional Bengali Hindu family. As a Young man, I was living a miserable life and was seeking peace. On 20th July 1998, I heard about Jesus, when I was listening to a radio program. Matthew 11:28 touched my heart where Jesus calls people with heavy heart that he can give peace and rest. I felt rest when I responded to the call. I began to listen more about Jesus on radio. Also I was attending a local church in my area. The pastor of the church encouraged me to go for 6 months Discipleship training in Bihar. I attended discipleship training for six months in 2000. I understood that I am a sinner and I need forgiveness, which only Jesus can provide. According to Acts 4:12, I believed in Jesus and obeyed him in Baptism on 11th August 2002.

I did my Bachelor of Theology (B.Th.) from Allahabad Bible Seminary during 2002 to 2005. I was married in 2006. We began our ministry in Kolkatta area in 2007. We were involved in church planting, and ministry among children. We are blessed with two sons, 11 years and 7 years old.

We were introduced to Disciple Making and Church Planning through one of our mutual friend. We learned and implemented and found this strategy very fruitful. Our ministry grew and the Lord enlarged our territory and helped us form a network, Transform East Alliance (TEA).
