Navjeevan Seva Mandal (NSM) Students - India

When you sponsor students for theological studies through NSM, they are better equipped to minister God’s Word to those in need. NSM support is part of the Crosslinks BEST programme

NSM is the social arm of FMPB (Friends Missionary Prayer Band) and was born in 1984 when people had the vision to give new life to people who are socially and economically handicapped. Help and training is given to people in India from all different backgrounds. NSM is a voluntary social service organisation. Its head office is in Ranipet and the Director is Rev M Raj. Crosslinks supports students who attend the NSM Bible Training Centre and Bible Seminaries throughout India which are recommended by Dr Chandrasekhar. Most of these students work for NSM when they have completed their studies.
