Biak Vaiphei

Ministry Overview

Biak Vaiphei serves as a dedicated missionary with International Partnership Ministries (IPM), focusing on reaching the Deaf community in India through gospel-centered ministry. Working within a context that requires careful attention to security and cultural sensitivity, Biak ministers to one of the most underserved and often isolated communities in the nation.

Field of Service

India is a nation of over 1.4 billion people with significant economic and social challenges. The Deaf community in India faces particular challenges including limited access to education, employment opportunities, and spiritual resources. Many Deaf individuals remain isolated from mainstream society and have limited exposure to the Gospel message.

This facility will serve as a gathering place for Deaf believers and a base for continued ministry expansion.
