Samuel serves as President of both Hopegivers International in the U.S. and Emmanuel Ministries in India. A powerful communicator and the son of Dr. M.A. Thomas, Samuel is an internationally sought after speaker, author, and ministry leader. His articulate and anointed messages, infused with both humor and hope, leave audiences refreshed, inspired, and spiritually moved. Dr. Sam’s passion is for serving those nearest to God’s heart–the fatherless and the widows, and his tireless dedication to the fulfillment of the One Million Arrows Vision, leaves every heart challenged to action. Due to high demand and divided time between India and the U.S., Dr. Sam’s availability is limited.
