Sharing the Love of Christ Through Ministry to Children, Widows, and Communities in India
Sanctuary Ministries is a Christian ministry helping children, widows, and families in need in southeastern India through Christ-centered care, education, evangelism, and partnership with local churches. Through ministries including caring for orphans and other children, providing Bibles, feeding the hungry, drilling water wells, and supporting preachers and evangelists, we seek to share the love of Christ and His message of salvation while meeting both spiritual and physical needs.
Current Initiative: Bible Drive
Through our Bibles for India ministry, we are responding to a request for 6,000 native-language Bibles.
$4.50 provides one Bible.
International Sanctuary Ministries, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Many of our longtime supporters know us by our former name, Sanctuary Home for Children. Today, most people just refer to us as Sanctuary Ministries. While our name has evolved, our mission remains the same: we aim to show God's love in southeastern India.
Through our leadership team in India, we work among children and families who are often overlooked and forgotten. At our core, we help children and widows, share the love of Christ, and spread the gospel to those who are lost. This mission is expressed in many different ways, but the overriding objective is always the same: to bring glory to God, as He shows us how and as He gives us opportunity.
How You Can Help
Our work is centered in southeastern India, primarily in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where we strive to follow God's direction to care for others and bring souls to Christ through showing His love and His truth.
We would be extremely honored and blessed if you would partner with us in this work. You can join us as we help orphans, widows, and people with leprosy; support local evangelists and ministers; and assist congregations in need. You can join us as we teach and feed children in the slum and as we provide fresh water to poor villages. In doing so, you can extend the blessings that God has given to you, passing them on to many who are less fortunate, but equally our Christian family.
