Samuel Peter: The Wizard!

You can’t be around Habitat India for very long without being influenced profoundly by this man: Mr. Samuel Peter. He is a giant among men of God here, and his “war record” is immense. He and his wife (Gita) single-handedly initiated micro-credit groups in India several years ago until they were a federation of over 200 small groups working for equality between workers and their employers. He and Gita also under the umbrella of EFICOR (an evangelical, ecumenical organization that works to advance the Kingdom) began numerous HIV/AIDS education and prevention programs in Southern India, and he now works as the India Church Relations component for Habitat for Humanity International. Like all of our TBL brethren, Samuel Peter exemplifies so much of the reason we continue to work in India. He is passionate, compassionate, tireless and radically committed to the Gospel and the advancement of the Kingdom of God. He’s our “brother from another mother”!
