Tell us about the work God has called you to
Pastoral ministry and church planting. To help create more spaces for 2nd generation South Asian Americans to be discipled and know the Lord. 

What is your best ministry moment?
My favorite ministry moments are seeing the ‘ah ha’ moment on a person’s face when they learn something new about God and the gospel.  

What are your hopes for Advance?
My hope for Advance is that it would continue to unify and inspire South Asians across the globe for the sake of the gospel. That many more leaders would step up and join the call to discipleship, evangelism and church planting.

What would you say to someone considering ministry?
Take an honest inventory of your life experiences, your convictions and desires and lay them at the Lord’s feet. We are all called to do ministry, the question is when and how will we participate in his plan to save the lost. It’s not an easy endeavor but it is his work so he will provide.
