Maranatha Children Homes – Beginning
I had a great desire to help the orphan, poor, and needy children in India. But I did not have the financial support. My wife and I were praying to God to help us. Then I have received a check for $ 3,000 from a friend in Norway saying that a man walked into his office with an envelope stuffed with 20,000 Norwegian Kroner and said that God spoke to him to send that money to Brother Moses for the Children Home in India. I have taken 22 boys into my house in my native village and started the Children Home in 1982. Not knowing where I’d get the money to raise those boys for the rest of the year, I took them in. My widowed mother did the cooking for two years as we couldn’t afford to hire a cook. The picture on the right is the first Children Home in the native village of Pastor Choudary.
