Impact Story

Chakdulu Baptist Church is located in the low-income district of Dinajpur. The church participated in the LAMB-Church and Community Transformation (CCT) program and started a Bible study group in early 2020. Through bible study, participants are meeting the needs of spiritual growth and learning to respond to the needs of the church and community to promote spiritual revival among church members. Through the spiritual revival seminars, believers are inspired to take on the challenge of living a life of genuine Christian faith. In the end, about 150 believers who attended the spiritual revival seminar had become more committed to their faith and were more regularly involved in church and community care services and Sunday school than before, building personal, and family prayer lives.
