While he was studying at Calcutta Bible College, Rev. Waimeren received many sponsorships and financial support from well wishers and one of them was a US army Charlie. As he received more than his needs in the college, he spared a sum of INR 50 every month and handed it over to his principal, Rev. Peck to support poor students like him in the college when he left the college after completion of his studies.
As a spiritual legacy of their parents, his children collectively continue a soul winning ministry known as “Wangdangtep Family Mission.”
