Tree of Life Church, Mumbai is a member of Newfrontiers which is an international movement of over 500 churches with a vision to change the expression of Christianity.

People have been sent out from Tree of Life to churches countries including Turkey, Nepal, Pakistan, etc. Our ongoing involvement in their lives, both as people and churches, is of great importance to us as we strive to be an authentic New Testament church.

Vinu Paul and Franco share their experience in Turkey at the Izmir Light House Church Annual Camp:

Before we could leave for Turkey we met together to pray and wait on God. While praying we felt the assurance from God that it was going to be wonderful time. The 40 days of fasting by Vinu & Living Hope Church as also the prayer from Tree of Life Church helped us a lot in preaching and ministering to the people over there. The camp began with 70 adults and 20 children and it steadily increased to 130 adults & 25 children as the camp progressed. 6 days of being together in one place which is 80kms away and living in tents was challenging and yet refreshing. 16 nationalities worshiping together gave us a glimpse of what heaven would be like.

 
Although this church is one of the biggest church in terms of numbers they have faced many hardships in the last 3 years. Helmut who is the pastor of the church was very much encouraged by what happened there. The Youth was mightily touched as well as the little children. The climax was to see 9 Muslims get baptized and their testimonies.

After the camp we had the outreach in the evening in Izmir town in an Anglican church building. This was attended by at least 150 people with 20 visitors. 6 souls responded to the gospel and there were few healings. One man who got to know about this meeting was also healed from a shoulder pain and gave his life to the Lord.
 
Seeing the ancient city of Ephesus was a memorable experience. We enjoyed ministering together as friends who have been friends for last 38 years.

Franco is the pastor of Tree of Life Church and Vinu leads the Living Hope Church in Borivili also part of Newfrontiers.
