Jerris has been involved with the team that worked to produced all of this. Jerris first teamed up with Ron Clayton in 1987. The autonomous Team meets in Hydrabad to discuss shared goals. They discuss the statistics that are kept on the India Church of Christ and work on common goals.

They have both completed numerous mission journeys to India; by 2008 Jerris had made 51 and Juanita 20 mission trips to India.

NEW DELHI, INDIA - The nimble rickshaw puller squeezes between street vendors on the narrow streets of India’s congested capital.
Peering between the stands selling samosas and chai tea, two American church members glimpse a service at a Hindu temple. Worshipers, on their knees and covered in flowers, wait to get a blessing from the priestess. -
The Dharoor Experience
Read more ...
Every year for the past 85 years or so, the Methodists from Hyderabad and surrounding districts have conducted a huge camp meeting near Dharoor (a small village in Ranga Reddy District of Andhra Pradesh). This camp meeting is always in November, and is held in a big open field. It has grown from 10,000 in the inaugural year to about 10 lakhs today (1 lakh=100,000). [This is one million people in attendance.] I went this year to see what was going on. I will tell you why.

Jerris Returns from India
Jerris and Juanita returned this week from an extended stay in India. More details can follow, but in his short report to the Manassas Church of Christ, he stated that from the more than 23,000 preachers that he spoke with, seeing 400 to 500 of them daily, his most requested thing was "Take me back home with you!" This request was not to escape the place where they live, or the work that they have to do, but it was to "Thank the contributors in person" for all of their prayer an support.
Whom shall we send?
KAKINADA, INDIA - India’s missionaries train here.
They come to the Kakinada School of Preaching from across India — including Bihar and Orissa states, where Christians routinely suffer persecution. Some bear the light skin and Asian features of Mainipur state in India’s far east. A few are from Myanmar, a nation in Southeast Asia where religious gatherings often are restricted or prohibited.

India Report- April 15,1999
Dear Brethren,
Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. God has granted us another safe trip and a successful mission to India. The church continues to grow at an incredibly fast pace. This generation of Indians is open to the same restoration plea that won the hearts of Americans from 1830 to 1860. We are grateful to be a part of history in the making. We praise God for the following statistics:
India Report - December 31,2004
Dear Brethren
Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. On Sunday, December 26, the day after Christmas one of the world’s deadliest natural disasters of all time struck Southeast Asia. Tsunami! We knew the word before December 26th. Now we know the full force of the event. Never again will it be just a word. Now it is a range of terrible emotions. And never again will we view the ocean in the quiet, serene way we once did
India Report - June 29, 1998
Dear Brethren,
Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. India is the news these days. In the milliseconds needed to set off ten test nuclear bombs, India and Pakistan have forced us to focus on our mission work in the post-nuclear subcontinent What will happen now? A nuclear arms race with Iran, Iraq, North Korea, China, Pakistan, and India who can say? Hopefully the peace talks announced on June 17th between India and Pakistan will bear fruit. The fervent prayer for peace on earth, good will towards all people is sorely needed.
