    I love Tamojit Ray

    He blew me away with his amazing acting and he inspired me to be a actor in the future. I have one complaint which is that he specks very slow and he reminds me of Santa Claus. I have not even watched one minute of this movie but i dont care because Tamojit Ray is in it.

    10/10 would recommend to my grandmother so se can sleep.

    Mission,Church history,pioneers

    One man called by God,finding His gifts and calling. Making a better life for many,by ending the tradition of sati...people working together for hope joy and the kingdom of God. Giving the good news of Christ Jesus to people who never knew about the Love of God by translating the Word of God to many languages.

    Sacrifices and dedication in spite of difficulties,opposition and greed. The eternal kingdom of Christ Jesus keep Growing ,giving hope and encouragement to those who struggles today. To rescue and guide many to salvation and discipleship here and now and beyond the graves,Jesus died for us.
