At Good Shepherd Compassion Ministries, we believe that strong churches are built by strong leaders. The Gospel can only spread and thrive when pastors, evangelists, and young men of God are trained, equipped, and sent into the harvest field.
In many tribal regions of India, passionate men and women are serving Christ without any formal training in the Word of God. Seminaries are expensive, and there are no Bible schools accessible in these rural areas. Recognizing this urgent need, Pastor Sudarsanam Samuel Chatla—a theologian with a Master’s degree in Theology—was led by God to begin a Bible school program in 2011.
The purpose of our Bible school is simple yet powerful: to equip committed young men, tribal pastors, and evangelists with solid biblical teaching, foundational theology, and practical church-planting skills. With these tools, they can become effective witnesses of Christ, building healthy churches and transforming communities for God’s glory.
Over the years, we have seen the fruit of this vision. Forty students successfully graduated from our program and are now faithfully serving in the mission field, bringing countless souls to Christ.
Currently, the Bible school is not in operation due to financial limitations. However, the vision remains alive and burning in our hearts. If God opens the door of provision, we are prepared to relaunch the school with a strong curriculum, foundational church-planting courses, and essential Bible subjects.
Pastor Samuel’s network of theologian friends and ministry partners also stand ready to join this vision by teaching and mentoring future leaders. With the right support, we can once again raise a new generation of pastors and evangelists who will take the Gospel into the most unreached regions of India.
We invite you to pray and partner with us in this mission. Your support can make it possible to equip leaders, train evangelists, and send out faithful men and women to fulfill the Great Commission.
“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field.” (Luke 10:2)
By standing together, we can prepare these workers and send them out with power, knowledge, and passion to transform lives with the Gospel.
As we continue this growing work, we earnestly seek your prayers, encouragement, and partnership. The fields are ripe for harvest, and the time is urgent. We invite you to stand with us as we proclaim Christ to the multitudes and prepare a generation for His Kingdom.
"Lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest." (John 4:35)
