Baptist Missionary Society of England illegally Sale Baptist Church property to Non-Christian Land Mafias. Sub: Unfortunate sale of Baptist Church and area to a Non Christian Land Mafia at Sambalpur of Orissa, India by the Baptist Missionary Society of England. Dear Sir/Madam, with profound grief in heart I wish to share a few facts with you for your information & kind prayer. History says in the Orissa province of India, Sambalpur district was a lower caste tribal area where mainly Munda tribals were living. On 1879 The British missionaries came to this area for propagation and preaching of real Christian truth and message of salvation as a result of which many Munda believers received Jesus Christ as their Savior and got new light of life. We got Bible through them and got worldly as well as spiritual education by their noble effort so we are greatly indebted to them. The Baptist Missionary Society who worked in this dark area did yeomen service for the Church and Christian Society. In their memory we wish to build a theology college and a hospital in this area. A beautiful Church is already being constructed in the mission compound area which was established in the year 1881 by the Baptist missionary society of England. But recently the present India Manager of B.M.S Mr.Franklin John Qureshi has illegally sold this mission area to a non Christian big land mafia businessman for his own selfish interest. The question arise that did BMS became so poor that it tried to sell the religious property to a non Christian at a throw away price, where a church is standing and missionary activities are going on. When we have tried our best to keep the last commandment of Jesus and as a result of which 19 numbers of Munda Baptist Churches have grown up in Sambalpur district and this mission compound area has acted as a head quarter for the Church activities, the present B.M.S India Manager acted as a traitor to sell the property of the Christian Community which needs immediate prevention and condemnation. Many international preachers like Dr. Larry Walker and Dr. David Airland from USA have spoken from this mission Compound preaching platform. Though we are poor, we are happy in Christ and the same happiness should not be taken away from us. We very much request our brothers of England and whole world to pray for us, our lives are very much attached to our church and for that we may have to sacrifice our lives also. May Lord Jesus help us and save this Church and the mission compound landed property. Kindly pray for us and pass on this message to other Christian brothers. I request all our fellow brothers of England and rest of the world to help us in this crucial moment. Yours in Christ Munda Baptist Church Sambalpur, Orissa India.
