Rev. Shibu Ooomen with Reformed Evangelistic Fellowship
Shibu and Mary Oommen are natives of Kerala in South India where the Apostle Thomas brought the gospel in AD 52. They were brought up in the Mar Thoma Church which is part of the Eastern Reformed Church tradition. After working and living in Saudi Arabia for several years, Shibu became a committed Christian through an underground church there. Sensing, a call to full time gospel ministry, Shibu left his marketing career and returned with Mary to India in 2003 to attend seminary. While in seminary, Shibu founded India Village Mission, a holistic ministry for the underprivileged in Northern India. In 2007, Shibu graduated from the Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Dehradun with an Master’s of.Divinity..They relocated to the United States in 2008 and God miraculously opened the doors for full time gospel ministry and ordination in the Presbyterian Church in America.
Since 2009, they have worked as missionaries with Reformed Evangelistic Fellowship (REF), serving among the ethnic and South Asian communities living in Upper Darby and the Greater Philadelphia area. Shibu has been actively involved with Mary in street and home proclamation of the gospel and discipleship of believers. Shibu started S4(Seek, Share, Serve & Sustain) a weekly evangelistic outreach in Upper Darby with likeminded evangelists working across denominational and ethnic lines. Now this ministry has extended to Lancaster and Kutztown university. In January 2020 Shibu began working with EE which has been described as "perhaps the best known and most widely used evangelistic training curriculum in church history.” As the EE Tristate Coordinator for Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, Shibu is focusing on training churches and groups in evangelism to aid them in carrying out the Great Commission. Shibu and Mary are living in Lancaster Pa.
