WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

TRANSFORMING LIVES
I have visited TellAsia’s work in India three times in the last three years. I am beyond impressed with this incarnational ministry model among the most underprivileged in the world. I participated firsthand in TellAsia’s holistic ministries to children, women and the marginalized in the society with an aim to see lives transformed in India and beyond.
~ Pastor John Kuo, Wu-Chang Conservative Baptist Church, Taiwan
DEFENDING THE WEAK
“TellAsia Ministries has been known to us since their beginnings in 1997. They are doing an incredible work in some of the most difficult areas of Asia. Several of our staff members have personally visited them in India and one also served on their Board of Directors. VOM partners with TellAsia to obtain justice for the persecuted and provide ministry equipment to native leaders.”
~ VOM
LOCAL LEADERS
“Each year, through their hard work and dedication, TellAsia assists thousands of the desperate and needy. I am particularly struck with how many of the native people have been raised up as leaders, the amount of training happening, the explosive growth, and the high level of integrity of this ministry in general. We wish to highly recommend TellAsia Ministries.”
~ Dr. Mark Tubbs, Harvest International Ministries, Pasadena, CA
EFFECTIVE ** POWERFUL
“TellAsia’s field work is led by the indigenous people themselves. The goal of helping people spiritually as well as physically and economically adds to the effectiveness and power of this organization. I am so thankful for the opportunity I have to work with this creative, energetic and effective team in raising up an ever-increasing harvest. It is my privilege to partner with them and I would encourage any other group to do the same.”
~ Pastor Kelly Walter, Rock Brook Church, Kansas City, MO

OUR HISTORY

Guided by detailed dreams, in 1996 TellAsia’s founder Leanna Cinquanta gave up a budding equestrian career. She set off for one of the most needy and populous areas of the world – the Ganges River region of north India. Living directly with the native people, she discovered key strategies for bringing transformation to communities. In 1997, with assistance back home from her mother, TellAsia Ministries was founded.
