About the Founder

Home » About the Founder

Rev. M.P shajan is the founder and president of EMFI Ministries.

He’s a man who’s passionate for God and his people in India.

In 1989, Shajan met Jesus Christ and accepted Him as his personal Savior. Shajan was the first person in his remote village to get saved. Soon after his salvation he started to share his joy with the people in his village, but he was met with only negative responses.

People mocked him and separated themselves from him. In 1992, Shajan went to seminary and got his Bachelors in Theology. In 1993, Shajan started his first church in his own village. With only three believers and much prayer God started bringing more people to the church. Many of the new believers were called by God for missions so they were given training and sent out to other villages. The continued growth of this ministry led to the formation of EMFI, the Evangelical Mission for India, led by Rev. Shajan & Dede M.
