Established on Jan 25 1997, the St Basil Gospel Team is led by priests of the Indian Orthodox Church dedicated to mission work and community development. The team members are of fourteen priests and one deacon. The team objective is to spread the gospel by healing the ill, curing alcoholic adicts, help the needy spiritually and financially. Till now Gospel Teams service touched the heart of thousands of people leading them to divine healing, repentance and submission to God.
It was the first time ever that a programme of this magnitude with the attendance of six priests of Orthodox Church was conducted in Kuwait. Faithful from sister churches also came in large numbers and attended “Divine Feast”. It was a great experience for all those who participated in the Programme. Thousands experienced the divine touch of Almighty in the special services of submission, repentance and healing. Many felt that such services are the need of the time when many our people run after the services of the so called “Reformed Churches” and other charismatic movements.
