(Assam State, India)—A missionary named Elian, trained through Mission India, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was working on spreading the Gospel in an Indian village, through a Bible-based adult literacy class.

However, Elian was met with slammed doors, and cold responses, even after offering to pray with people in the village. Not giving up, the missionary noticed the children in the village were often left unattended by their parents, so Elian began a Children's Bible Club.

A report by Mission India states that Elian started the club by singing, as he stood along the side of the road where the children would pass by. Before long a crowd of children had gathered around him, and they began singing and dancing to the worship songs he taught them.

Through the children singing the songs and telling the Bible stories to their parents at night, at least 10 families are now following Jesus, according to the MNN report.
