Global Connections
At Corner Fringe, we’ve been guided by God to form purposeful bonds with organizations that champion our neighbors here and around the world who are less fortunate than we are. We support these compassionate partners and encourage you, as you are led by God, to use your gifts and talents to help them as well. (Due to location, several of our partners are not disclosed on our website.)
Corner Fringe Ministries - India
CFM India is being built upon our relationship with Kumar “Vijay” Yamarthi and the leading of the Holy Spirit. Since 2018, Vijay has been involved with our Online Fellow Fringers, prayer meetings, Bible studies, and mentoring relationships. He is serves in ministry alongside his family: Joshna (wife), Pastor Purushotum (dad), Martha (mom), Vikram and Marharshi (brothers).
The heartbeat of their ministry is to share the gospel of Messiah, no matter the cost. They do this through three areas of ministry: a children’s orphanage, street evangelism, and church planting.

Orphanage
A dozen or more children live with the Yamarthi family and additional children are periodically blessed by the family with food and clothing. The cost to care for each child averages about $200 per month. This includes food, clothing, lodging, education, transportation, medical care, and more.
Street Gospel
The Yamarthi family have spent years using very simplistic means of transportation and technology to communicate their hope in Messiah to whoever will listen. As a result of this obedience, poor and destitute families began to ask them to take orphaned children into their home, thus the birth of the orphanage.
Church Planting
As the street gospel ministry continues, and people are called out of the fire and into God’s mercy, the need for discipleship and accountability happens. The natural and biblical response to this is community. The ministry is working with pastors in different villages to establish Sabbath keeping churches.
Orphanage donations directly benefit the children.
General needs include street gospel and church planting.

CFM-India experienced a fire in their original orphanage home the beginning of July. Shortly after the fire, a Hindu neighbor of the Yamarthi family provided them with a land deed (free of charge!) for a piece of land adjacent to their existing orphanage. She told Martha she would like to see them construct a concrete building to be used for cooking, so they never have to worry about another building being destroyed by fire. Our God is so good!!
This has been a vision of the Yamarthi family for several years. They foresee a concrete block building that will serve as a multi-purpose facility. The ground level will be a kitchen and room for children’s activities. Future additions for second and third stories will provide for a church facility and more housing for children yet to come.
A “New Building Fund” ($50,000 goal) has been organized to complete Phase 1: A single-story building with footings to support two more stories in the future. To date, $42,000 has been raised. Please prayerfully consider supporting this vision.

Chosen People Ministries
Chosen People Ministries exists to pray for, evangelize, disciple, and serve Jewish people everywhere and to help fellow believers do the same.
Corner Fringe actively supports Trevor & Kelssee Rubenstein, branch leaders in Minneapolis. Trevor was raised in a nominal conservative Jewish home and received his Bar Mitzvah at age 13 but later embraced atheism. He struggled with depression and constant thoughts of suicide until he accepted Yeshua as his Savior after being introduced to the words of Yeshua in the New Testament at a Bible study. He has since given his life to reaching the broken hearts of the lost – specifically the depressed, addicts, those involved in cults and the Jewish people.
Not only does Corner Fringe actively support Trevor, but he is often a guest speaker at our Shabbat services. His sermons can be found on our YouTube channel
