“Mercy ministries and education - relationships are pivotal to lasting change. Through meeting both practical and tangible needs, trust is built and communication begun. Hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children have been impacted through our mercy ministries which include, but are not limited to fresh water well installation, weekly food distribution, medical camps & hospitals, disaster relief, emergency care and shelter, hospice care for those afflicted with hiv/aids, elderly homes, red light district ministry & restoration, and monthly food & medical aid to those afflicted with leprosy. In a nation plagued by the caste system as well as a 40% literacy rate, we acknowledge that true freedom will only come through the ability to make choices, gain willful employment, and pass this invaluable gift onto future generations. Education is the key. We continue to make a growing investment in the future of india through education in these ways; 2 elementary schools for dalit children, 2 junior colleges, 1 technical college, 5 nursing colleges, and 10 bible colleges.”
