Dimapur, April 8 (EMN): A newly constructed church for believers of Lahing Koilajungle has been dedicated on April 8 by Rev. Dr. Lima Jamir, professor of Eastern Theological College of Jorhat.
A press release from the president of Assam Valley Baptist Mission, Temsu Wathi Ao said the church was constructed by Rohit Tudo and his family who have been worshiping the Lord at Hingbolia Baptist Church for the past 17 years, located 8 km away from his village along with another family from this locality who embraced Christ in the process.
