Mission Focus: Ricky Valphei

This our mission focus for September-October 2025 is supporting Ricky Vaiphei and his family.

We have a personal connection with Ricky, as he stayed with a Church family in 2009/10 when he was ministering at St Peter's Bexleyheath.

Ricky is from Manipur, India and until 2023 he ministered there. In 2023 civil war broke out in the region and Ricky was forced to flee with his wife, Venus and daughters Becky and Gloria are off their mission field. We are looking to support him with his living expenses as he currently has no other financial support. Ricky is just now recovering from a Typhoid attack.

He's reaching out to other exiles, and hopes to return home when possible. As a family they may have to choose to leave their daughters behind for their safety. Please pray for them as they navigate this difficult situation. 

If you would like to give to Ricky, you can do this via the yellow envelopes, giving using the Church bank details (please use "Ricky V" as the reference), or giving to our missions fund here.
