King of Glory Missions, through various assessment in and around Chennai made initiative to support the families of the underprivileged, who required assistance amid COVID-19.
We came to know about a group of Gypsy families in Mappedu – Chennai, seeking food and healthcare during this hard time. These people have lost their livelihood, due to this lockdown and they were unable to make their living. So we decided to provide immediate relief support, keeping in mind that no one should have to sleep hungry.
As directed by the government, we requested permission from the government authorities for distributing the relief products. The Officials appreciated our initiative and they assisted us by sending police officials to guide the people to stand in queue to receive the relief material. Following the guidelines of Social distancing and safety procedures, we distributed rice and groceries in packages to 91 families.
Another area Agaram Then, near Mappedu, Chennai is also reported to have 30 families of the Snake Charmers suffering the lockdown crisis. Due to this curfew, many people of these families are unable to earn for their living, leading them to starve without food. We reached there and distributed the relief materials package containing rice and groceries.
We received a request to support the 22 families of poor people working on daily wage basis in Old Perungalathur, a Suburb of Chennai. We came to notice that due to this pandemic crisis, the people are starving for few days and there were no relief measures taken to stop the hunger. So, we decided to provide immediate relief to these people by providing them with food materials in packages with rice and groceries. Further we are seeking support from volunteers and public to join hands with us to help the society to overcome this critical situation. |

We are conducting the following
projects:
LITERACY PROJECTS FOR CHILDREN
“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this,
To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to
keep himself unspotted from the world” – James 1:27
“ And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and
when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them, ….
Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name,
receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me,
but him that sent me” – Mark 9: 36, 37.
NECESSITY OF THE CHILDREN LITERACY PROJECT: -
Though modernizations in rapid in India, most of the people are
still living below the poverty line. So that many parents are
not able to send their children to school for the better
education even though they want to do so. Also they are not
having regular jobs for their daily needs.
Due to this cause, their children become mentally affected.
Though the children want to go for education whether better
education or normal education, it is difficult for them to do
so. So, we are having the burden towards the fundamental rights
of children. Finally we would like to conduct the Literacy
programmes in the evening after the school ends for them by
providing the needs of their education such as, Uniforms, Note
Books, School Bags, Foot wears, writing materials and etc.
IMPLEMENTATION OF OUR PROJECTS
The children are gathering in the morning for devotion at the
project centers and then they are go to school. When they come
back from the school in the evening, our teachers will be
present in the camps to receive the children from the school and
assist them in their homework. Since all these community parents
are illiterate and could not help their children in their
studies, we take care of their homework. The Christian teachers
who work in our projects help the children in their studies. We
provide snacks and milk for these children after their study
time. Many of their parents have offered the works that required
children to participate and take-up some small work to earn a
living.
The parents are trying to find some coolie work to get some
money to buy provisions. For most of them it is difficult to get
a job and have began to suffer. We also try to help the parents
to get work
VOCATIONAL BIBLE SCHOOL
“But
when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them,
Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not:
for of such is the kingdom of God” - Mark 10:14
Every year we are conducting Vocational Bible School for
children for 7 to 10 days in different places and in our Church
also. This is a very good opportunity to gather children from
different kinds of background. We are providing snacks and
drinks to the children during the Vocational Bible School
period. In the final day, at the end of our Vocational Bible
School programme, we are issuing gifts to the children. Through
this programme, we are reaching the children for the Kingdom of
God. This is a good opportunity for every child to mingle and
have fellowship with each other and it brings unity among them.
SUNDAY CLASSES
“And
the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the
deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel” - Luke 1:80
Every Sunday at end of the worship Services, we are conducting
Sunday classes for children.
Our sisters and youths are taking care of these classes. We are
using selected Sunday class books for them. The children are
reading the scriptures and doing painting on those books. Every
year we are conducting children programmes in the end of the
year near to Christmas day and distributing the gifts to the
children. |
