EDUCATION PROBLEM IN SLUM AREA

Evening free education program for village children is conducted by our tuition centers. These children hail from economically poor background and strife torn families. Brotherhood mission's teachers provide free coaching from 5 to 7 pm every evening in 137 centers with 154 teachers throughout Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka. A total of 6600 children are benefited through this scheme in these two countries.

Our Ministry has been actively visiting the villages and bringing an awareness to child education with free evening school, providing school fees to those in need and equipping them with study materials, uniform, notebooks, school bags and etc.

The people in these villages have never heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ and are predominantly Hindu and worship idols. We are not able to share the Gospel directly and instead initiate social activities with evening school and slowly present the Gospel to them. Once a month and during holidays and summer vacation, we bring the children to our prayer centre and fellowship with the other children and are taught to worship and pray. The children now have the privilege of learning music and worshipping the Lord.
