Dear Friends,
Imagine having your sleep disturbed in the early hours of the morning
by people queuing for water. Those living on your right cannot accept
that, that the newly laid water line by the municipality was going to
supply water first to the “Low Caste” people on your left and then to
themselves.
Did you know that the little child with the pail of water on her head is

not out to play but that she is a child laborer employed to do an adult’s
work? This and much more is the lifestyle or customs of India.
It is our privilege to introduce you to our ministry in Andhra Pradesh,
India. Mercy Love Ministries is a faith ministry that was born with the

intention of reaching the needy and under– privileged.
Much of our effort is in reaching the needy in the slums and the
railway children (Street children).
Our teams enjoy effective ministry
via drama, music, video, stories, puppets, etc


Our outreach through street evangelism, children’s clubs, V.B.S,
free education to the needy in the slums, bible studies, youth
counseling and conferences are also fruitful.

Our orphanage serves to develop and nurture the undisciplined
street/railway and slum kids in the ways of the Lord thus leading
to their salvation and betterment of life.


Our community development programs
We conduct free tailoring classes for needy women and girls
who have not been to school. Pattern making, dress making,

machine operation and embroidery are taught.
We also have a regular feeding/cloth distribution scheme
to the homeless who search the dumps for their meals
when India is asleep at nights.

Our ministries include scripture and New Testament distribution
in schools, collages and in the slums and street corners
In recent times, we were asked to take in orphans whose
parents died of HIV/AIDS.
Please pray for this very costly ministry and if you can advise
us urther in this issue, or be willing to conduct HIV/AIDS training.
We would be grateful for such assistance.
We would like to extend an invitation to you to visit India and if possible,
to partner with us to be better acquainted with what
The Lord is doing in this great land that is bound by idol worship and
where the “Caste” system dictates who should prosper and who
shouldn’t. If you share a vision with us for the needy in India, then we
would like to know how best we can work together to accomplish this great work.


How can you be part of this ministry?
a) Accept our invitation to see for yourself what the Lord is doing in India.

b) Prayerfully consider sponsoring:

A Starter Pack for only $200-consisting of a new machine, cloth and
toolbox of thread, needles etc.
