A class of girls in the doicese of Kurnool A.P., India.

Say yes! And light a lamp in the life of a child in the diocese of Kurnool, A.P. India. The missionary diocese of Kurnool is comprised of two civil districts of Kurnool and Ananthapur, which are the drought prone areas of Andhra Pradesh State in South India. Christianity is growing in spite of the persecutions. 98% of the Catholics in this diocese are called “dalits” (Which means the oppressed untouchables of the Indian Society that is based on Caste system). When they become Christians though their social status remains the same as the Hindus but they lose the benefits such as scholarships for their children’s education and job reservations from the state. If they remain as Hindu dalits then the State Government gives them those benefits. So the Church in Kurnool diocese is trying its best to educate these dalit children by accommodating as many Catholic children as possible with your suport. At present we are able to provide ten months (School Year) of room and board for over 2,452 children by giving them food, clothing, education, and a solid foundation in the Catholic faith. Still there are 2,400 and above who wait for help. A young girl or boy is neglected in Indian Society waiting. So your help, love, and support would make a big difference in their life and in the future of the Church in Kurnool, India. On behalf of these little children, I kindly appeal to you and your friends in the USA to Sponsor a child and give them Christian hope for a bright future. Your $20 a month will provide a child: A chance to attend a Catholic school, food, clothing, and medical care. A good Catholic education and formation. For one year (and more) commitment, you will receive. *A photograph of your sponsored child *Two personal letters from your sponsored child per year. *The joy of knowing you helped a child that really needs it. ***If you wish, kindly mail your address to the contact person in the USA (To do this please look at the "Contact Us" page and we will get back to you very quickly).?
