Karuna Leprosy Ministries

Another financial year has ended and we want to thank and praise Almighty God for sustaining the Karuna Charitable Trust and all the work we are doing here in Gulbarga.
 We Also want to thank all of you who are involved with Karuna and are praying for us.
 As you all know The Karuna Charitable Trust now has 2 projects. One is the Karuna(compassion) project in the Gandhi leprosy colony and the other is the  Abundance project(an agricultural project) to help the leprosy affected.

A small update on the Abundance Project.

1. A few trees have been planted along with some seeds for vegetables.
Please pray that this will be fruitful.
2.Please pray for the health of the goats. 4 goats are pregnant.
Please pray that they will grow well and bring us much profits.

3.A cement tank which can hold 2500 litres of water has been erected

and will now make it easy to irrigate the land.
4. The rabbits are doing well.
5. Please pray for the 2 families (Devendrappa & his wife, Pandurang & his wife) working on the land, that the Lord would protect them at all times and bless them.

6. Pray for the Jatropha plantation that the plants will grow well and give us an abundance of seeds. We thank God for the first fruits that have already apeared on a couple of trees.

3. 3 patients admitted in the Karuna Hospital, 2 were discharged after been treated. Please pray for Sathappa who has been admitted with an amputed foot. Also pray for Sathappa as we take him to Jaipur to fit him with a Jaipur foot.

4. On an average 65 children were given nutrition daily.
Pray that God would continue to provide for these children.

5. The groundwork has been done to put at least 15 children in good residential Christian schools. Please pray that God would provide sponsors who would come forward with sponsorship so that more childrencould be put in Christian schools.

6. A monthly meeting has now been started with a group coming to the colony singing Christian bhajans (country songs) and praying.
 Around 35 people from the colony attended this month’s  meeting. Please pray that we will see breakthroughs and many people saved.

Also pray that God would continue to meet all the needs of the project.
