East Meets West
This is their story...
John Roughton met Zhepitoli Zhimomi in the city of Calcutta in 1989 while she was a student in Bible College. He was invited to visit India by a friend he met while in Bible school in America.
After John returned home, they corresponded. And when he returned to Calcutta the following year, they got engaged. They married and settled in John’s home state of Virginia. But after a few years, the Lord began to deal with them about returning to India — especially Zhepi’s home state of Nagaland.
They arrived in Dimapur, Nagaland in 1994 and began ministering as the doors opened. In the fall of the same year, at the Lord’s direction, they started a church.
Spirit of Faith Church began with 8 people in a small rented room. Today, it is a thriving campus that features a 1000-seat auditorium, Bible School, dormitory and other facilities.
For over 25 years John & Zhepitoli Roughton have been taking that same spirit of faith to the nations.
Nagaland India, and the regions beyond.

John & Zhepi have three children: Victoria (“Tori”), “Little” John, and Ryan. All of them grew up in Nagaland but now reside in America. Tori is an aesthetician. Little John is working and finishing up his degree in business with Liberty University. Ryan is working and attending Bible school.
