NARRATOR: Pastor Belkar worked
part time on a dairy farm
in northern India.
But he barely made
enough money to provide
for his wife and two sons.
Many times they had
to beg for food.
His 9-year-old son Arpan knew
they desperately needed help.
[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
INTERPRETER: We couldn't
pay our school fees.
We would borrow clothes for
others and wear them to school.
And we never had
enough food to eat.
[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
INTERPRETER: We used to
sit down and pray together.
We had hope that
one day God will
deliver us from our struggles
and answer our prayers.
NARRATOR: A local minister
who partners with CBN
told us about Belkar's need.
Since Belkar had the
skills to run a dairy farm,
we gave him 10
cows and a stable.
[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
INTERPRETER: When I saw the
cows for the first time,
I was very happy.
I ran to the stable
where the cows were.
I couldn't control my joy.
NARRATOR: Arpan loved that
the farm was named after him.
Today, it produces 400
gallons of milk each month.
Belkar hired workers
from his community.
And he's using
some of the profits
to build a bigger church and
support other local pastors.
[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
INTERPRETER: Now I'm
able to feed my family
and take care of
all their needs.
My sons are able to
pay their school fees
and buy their school
books and supplies.
[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
INTERPRETER: This is really
a miracle from Jesus.
We are very happy.
We are able to drink two or
three gasses of milk every day.
It's so yummy and sweet.
I really thank God and
all of you who helped us
by giving us the cows.
