God has gifted me an incredible journey, being born in Hyderabad, moving to the US at an early age, being raised in a God-loving house, studying at Temple University, working as a software engineer, and now answering the calling to full-time missions.
My Vision: I want students to experience the richness of the gospel on a personal level daily, to share that richness with others around them, in Philly and across the globe, transforming their lives, their friends' lives, and even their churches and communities so that the whole body of Christ continues to grow in size, unity, and real grace-filled vulnerability as the next generation of leaders impact this nation.
We all want to be seen, to be known, and to be loved. Students enter college eager to learn, but also eager to find themselves.
We all wrestle with identity, values, truth, community, and even spirituality.
Christ has the answers to all those questions, but God uses His people to proclaim that message.
Cru and Design Movement were transformative in my understanding of living a life wholly surrendered to God, both as a student and even post-graduation, and how I can reach the world with the gospel as a South Asian American.
In Design Movement, we start on an individual level. We want students to believe the gospel more deeply, to mobilize students to impact the world, and to welcome people to the community of faith.
The ministry is two-fold. One to share the gospel with not-yet Christians, and two to build up current believers to be able to create lifelong multiplying disciples of God wherever they go after college.
It would be an honor to connect with you more to share more about myself, but also to meet you and hear how God is continuing to impact your life, wherever you may be!
