National Evangelists

Each National Evangelist conducts weekly three-day festivals throughout India's most unreached villages to share the Gospel to people who have not heard. Evangelists introduce 5,000-10,000 people to Jesus as Savior each year.

Prabhudas Badugu

Prabhudas was born in a nominal Christian home. In seventh grade, both knees became swollen, and he was unable to walk. Prabhudas went to the hospital for two months, but the doctors could not find a physical cause. In the meantime, his older sister had accepted Christ, and she told him that the Lord is able to heal him.

Prabhudasa's family called the pastor to come and pray over him. His knees swelled up and became painful each time the pastor prayed.

One day the pastor came and prayed over Prabhudas, and a demon-possessed woman said that evil spirits have come to control him. Prabhudas became very fearful and felt someone hitting his knees. It felt like a demonic attack, so the pastor continued to pray for him each day. After 10 days of prayer and fasting by the church believers, Prabhudas could walk.

Prabhudas wanted to serve God, but his bad habits kept leading him away from God. Then he took a serious fall, yet he was not injured. Prabhudas knew that God had protected him and made a commitment to do only God's work from then on.

Prabhudas began with Oasis in February 2009 as a national evangelist. He says it takes a lot of work to arrange four mini-festivals each month, but he can handle it.
