DR. SAMUEL RAI
Dr. Samuel Sangram Rai
Samuel Sangram Rai is the son and grandson of Gurkha fighters. A Maoist revolutionary fighter from the age of 14, seeking to overthrow the royal family of Nepal, he was introduced to the Savior as a young man by a poor Christian couple while recovering from wounds received in combat. Subsequently called to the gospel ministry and trained by Dr. Peter Masters at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, his pioneering evangelistic and church planting efforts among the Nepali people in and around Nepal have resulted in him founding 350+ Baptist churches, with approximately a thousand Baptist churches founded by the churches he planted. His commitment to the Great Commission to make disciples is central to his efforts to reach the lost, with more than 1,775 congregations involved in his discipleship network on four continents and several island nations.
