OUR Mission
For many, old age means time to retire and relax. But for many more, old age brings several problems. Their general health and faculties begin to decline slowly. Some are affected by serious health issues which force them to require constant care and support of others to maintain some quality of life. Among those, there are many who are poor, homeless and abandoned. Many of them have no one to take care of their essential needs. Some do not have a house to live in, no proper clothing to wear, no essential food to eat, etc. They feel neglected and overlooked. To that extent, their old age becomes extremely pitiful.
“Hands of Jesus Ministries” is a response to this need in Kerala, a southern state in India, by many good-hearted people in the United States who want to help them.
​
After a great deal of prayer and research, we have decided to step forward and form a charitable non-profit corporation which is registered in the State of Texas named “Hands of Jesus Ministries”. We are inspired to do something for those people in Kerala in the spirit of Christian love. We desire to let Jesus use our hands to extend his love, care and protection. We dream of becoming the conduits of Jesus’s merciful and caring love in that region of the world.
Our Vision
​
“Hands of Jesus Ministry” envisions our hands enabling the deserving people in the state of Kerala to live their lives, especially in their old age, with dignity and self-esteem by providing them a safe and loving environment. Inspired by the words of Jesus recorded in the Gospel according to St. Matthew 25:40, “Whatever you did for one of these little brothers of mine, you did for me,” we look forward to reaching out to the people of Kerala who are in dire need of life’s essentials, especially in their old age because of their poverty and helplessness.
