“Orphanage-in 2006, the orphanage continued to thrive in a rented house in hubli, karnataka state, india. In may and june of 2006, we took in another four children, so the total from june through the end of 2006 was eighteen children that we took care of. In 2007, latter glory ministries continued our work with the orphanage in hubli, india. In june, we again enrolled the children into their schools to continue their education. We held our annual christmas party in december 2007 and invited any living relatives of the kids, and some poor kids from the area. We provided a christmas meal and gave gifts to all the kids who were present at the party. (see schedule o for ongoing ministry activity) in 2008 we once again focused on our orphanage in hubli, india. A few of the children left our orphanage and returned to family members, who were able to take them back. This left us with 18 children in our care. The kids did well in their studies at school, which ended in march 2008. During their summer vacation (april & may), they took a vacation trip all together to suri's (solomon devaraj) mother's home in naregal. They spent 5 days there with suri and tammy and the family. The new school year began in june 2008. The oldest girl had graduated high school and was placed in a vocational training program for fashion design. Another of the girls was entering her final year of high school. In december we arranged a large christmas party for the kids and any existing family members and for other poor families from the community. They were invited to our orphanage for a celebration where everyone was served a delicious meal and all the kids received presents for christmas. In 2008 latter glory ministries also reached out into the community in hubli, india with a one week childrens' camp attended by 350 kids. Each day the kids were served one hot meal. The kids learned dances, dramas, songs and stories from the bible. On the last night, the kids did all the songs, etc. On a large stage in the school compound, which was attended by about 1,000 people. Also in 2008, our organization promoted the orphanage with seminars and speaking engagements in various churches and small groups, and at our annual conference in pittsburgh, pa in november 2008. Throughout 2009, our orphanage continued to take care of 18 children. The house parents, who live with and take care of the kids, continued on staff with us. They are doing an excelent job with the children during the kids' summer vacation from school, our staff took the children on an all day outing for a picnic and fun games. The staff also conducted a vacation bible school for the kids. All the kids entered into a new school year in june 2009. We have two kids attending an english school, two kids in a college program, and the remaining fourteen in a rotary school; all are receiving a good education. In december 2009 we had a special christmas party; we also invited friends and relatives of our children to attend. Each child received a christmas gift, and a special dinner was prepared for all to enjoy. We continued to support the same 18 children in our orphanage in hubli, india throughout 2010. In february we finally decided on a name for our orphanage: mahima childrens home. Mahima means glory in the indian language. Our children at mahima childrens home did several outreaches in their city in various churches. They did dramas dances and songs during the church services. The people really enjoyed it in may of 2010, the owners of the house we rent wanted to move back into their house, so we started to look for a new house for our orphanage. It was a very slow process, with not much available and ready to move into. The children did really well in school at all levels. At the end of 2010, we had our annual christmas party; we invited many people to come join us. We fed all the people who came to the party and gave out christmas presents to all the children. We had several conferences in pittsburgh, pa,”

“Christian outreach seminars - latter glory ministries began conducting outreach meetings in november 2011. The purpose of the meetings is to reach out to people who need prayer, and to help them reach their full potential. These meetings offer encouraging messages that are practical and which help people in their everyday lives. The meetings are held usually on the first three fridays of each month. Also included are six missions conferences that were conducted during 2012. The focus of these events is the orphanage in hubli. During 2013, we conducted only one missions conference. We have continued holding regular meetings in monroeville pa, to be a support to the community by offering prayer and counseling as well as having meetings for people to come and worship and receive an encouraging word. Many lives have been encouraged and blessed by this outreach of our ministry. In 2013 we started renting a small office space as well as a prayer and counseling room, both located at st. Martin's church. We have had numerous fellowship meals and have fed many people. We have also continued to have conferences with guest speakers to encourage and uplift people. In 2014, our ministry continued holding special prayer meetings at st martin's church near pittsburgh, reaching out to people in need of prayer and counseling. We held two missions conferences as well, in march and november. Latter glory ministries continued reaching out to other countries, raising awareness of our orphanage in india, while ministering to the spiritual needs of people, meeting together in various churches and small groups. In 2015, we continued hosting meetings three fridays each month, to encourage people and reach out to our community. We also conducted two missions conferences, in march and in november to continue to promote the exciting developments at our orphanage in india. 2016 featured a continuation of the outreach meetings for much of the year. These were punctuated by a revival conference in the spring which helped us to reach out to many people. As a result of that conference, many people who attended wanted to continue to have meetings so we could teach and train them in the bible. Because of this, we hosted six weeks of continuous meetings with various guest speakers coming and teaching from the bible. We were able to pray for many people as well as counsel them. 2017 was a very fruitful year. We continued to have our regular outoutreach meetingson fridays in monroeville, pa to encourage people in the bible and prayer. We held a conference in march with guest speakers. During the conferencewe had teaching from the bible and lots of prayer for everyone who attended. We were able to share about mahima children's home in india as well. At the end of april 2017, we held our first women's conference, to encourage and equip women in what they feel god calling them to do. Throughout 2018 we continued with our friday evening weekly "glory encounter meetings". We continue to teach and train people to lead a better life and follow what they are called to do. We kicked off our first youth conference, "generation destiny youth night", on 6/29/18, to reach out to young people in the surrounding region. "releasing the deborahs", our second women's conference on 11/10/18 was sold out, a rousing success both of these events were held at our regular meeting venue, the doubletree hotel in monroeville, pa. In 2019 lgm continued to have our weekly friday meetings to reach out to people in the pittsburgh area by teaching from the bible and praying for those in need. We also had four teaching conferences in pittsburgh. In closing, 2019 was a great year which enabled our ministry to reach out to many people both in india and the united states.”

“Land development-in april of 2015, we decided to try drilling for water once again on our ten acres of land in naregal, where have been wanting to build our own orphanage building. We were led to a particular spot where we felt there would be water. We hired the company to come out to dig, and sure enough, up sprang water for the very first time the entire village rejoiced now that we have water, we can start building on the land in the meantime, the local villagers are blessed to have access to our water for their daily use. We are so excited and are looking forward to all that is in store for our orphanage in the coming years later in the summer we bought a large water storage tank to hold water because of the frequent loss of power in the village. We installed a pump and all the attachments and are so grateful for this progress. We also had an architect draw up revised blueprints for the orphanage building project. During our 2017 visit to india, we did some basic repairs and maintenance on the well project to keep it in good shape. Everything stayed in good condition through 2018 as well. We were blessed with another good year in 2019. Repairs & maintenance were not needed; water continued to flow freely for the community.”
