Gospel for Asia Helps 200,000 Families in Asia Defy COVID-19 Starvation

WILLS POINT, TX – Gospel for Asia (GFA World and affiliates like Gospel for Asia Canada, founded by Dr. K.P. Yohannan) helps to distribute food kits to more than 200,000 utterly desperate families to defy COVID19 starvation.

With the number of COVID19 cases in India surging past eight million and deaths climbing rapidly, ongoing hunger relief efforts continue to stave off starvation across pandemic-ravaged Asia.

In some areas, hunger is forcing people to take the most extreme measures. One man was captured on video apparently eating a dead dog off the road.

“The situation on-the-ground right now is utterly desperate,” said K.P. Yohannan, founder of mission agency Gospel for Asia (GFA World). “We’re doing all we can to bring relief and as difficult as it is, compassion will triumph in the end.”

Partnering with Believers Eastern Church in Asia and local officials, the Texas-based ministry — one of the biggest faith-based organizations alleviating poverty in Asia — is distributing food kits to more than 200,000 families on the edge of starvation.

With the recent COVID19 surge catapulting India into second place behind the U.S. in confirmed cases, parents in the world’s second-most populous nation and across Asia face the near-impossible task of feeding their children, amid total loss of income.
