From the first meeting of Pastor William K.
“Russ” Lee and Pastor Mekala Devadas and their wives in the summer of 1997 a
deep bond was formed. The relationship between the two ministries, The Spirit
of Christ Community Church in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, USA, and Christ the
King of Kings Ministries in Gajuwaka, India, began and has grown over the
years.
Situated in the remote village of Ava Somavaram, which is 45 kms from Visakhapatnam
City, "Two Worlds Children's Home" is the abode for abandoned or
orphaned children. These children are clothed, fed, educated, and loved and are
the future of India. It is joy and delight to Christ the King of Kings
Ministries to serve these kids, who come from various religious faiths and
economic background.
SCHOOL
Christ
the King of Kings Ministries is dedicated in educating the future generation of
India. There has been a Considerable change in the literacy rate and is just
because of Christian voluntary organizations which are working in different
states of India. The literacy rate grew from 18.33 per cent in 1951, to 28.30
per cent in 1961, 34.45 per cent in 1971, 43.57 per cent in 1981, 52.21 per
cent in 1991, 64.84 per cent in 2001 and 74.04 per cent in 2011. During the
same period, the population grew from 361 million to 1,210 million. Two Worlds
Public School which is part of Christ the King of Kings Ministries is serving
the local community through the school program. In
addition to being clearly taught God's plan of salvation, local children have a
chance to learn to read and write English, which will greatly expand their
opportunities for the future.
WIDOWS & ELDERLY
There are older people today than ever
before and their number is on the increase. The welfare of the aged has been a
low priority for the present generation and so the old aged have nowhere to
turn. They are left disillusioned, shattered and lonely. Today there are 77
million old people in India. This number is likely to rise to 177 million by
2025.
90% of the older people are from unorganized sector with no social security.
40% of the old live below poverty line. 75% of the old are from the rural areas.
55% of the women 60+ in age [a staggering 19 million] are widows.
73% of the old are illiterate.

Following
the Biblical mandate of James 1:27, Christ the King of Kings Ministries
supports these women, as well as needy elderly couples by providing a home for
them. Join
hands with Christ the King of Kings Ministries to help them live with
confidence and dignity.
TRIBAL OUTREACH
India has more than 470 tribal
groups, each with their distinct dwellings in villages and forests.
Christ the King of Kings Ministries is
a Voluntary organization working for the welfare and development of Scheduled
Tribes. Efforts comprise schemes for educational, economic and social
development including protective measures under the SC/ST (Prevention of
Atrocities) Act, and the policy of positive discrimination in public employment
and education.
Reaching the unreached tribal regions of India
is a vision of Devedas and Sarojini Mekala, who have traveled frequently to
these parts to preach the Gospel to the illiterate and poor tribal people who
live in the border of the states of Andhra Pradesh and Orissa. Now the baton
has been passed onto the next generation of evangelists: their sons, who have taken the challenge of reaching the
people who live deep in the mountains, as well as the young people ready to take
the Gospel to their own people.
MEDICAL
With the rampant diseases, difficult living conditions, and poor sanitation,
medical care in the rural parts of India is always a big concern.
Government-run clinics and hospitals in this area are unreliable and often a
great distance away. With Pastor Mekala Devadas and Sarojini's medical background, they
have a special vision for a Christian medical clinic that would meet both
physical and spiritual needs.
