Amazing Ministry in India



Introduction: I met Pastor Shravan this summer when he was visiting with Rex Schrolluke and Ron Peake. He has a church, a children's home and a school but no curriculum. I asked if he had electricity and a computer. Yes to electricity and wi fi but no computers.  I introduced him to Bernie Stevens, founder of Power Net Global and Abydos Innovation line of Android Tablets. Now read the letter from Pastor Shravan.

Family and friends,

Greetings!
Look at the boy in the picture. His name is Pradeep. He came from a dysfunctional family. His father is a chronic alcoholic and his mom a very sick person. 
Since his Parents could not take care of him they admitted him in our Miracle Children's home. 
He never saw an a-pad in his life let alone uses it. (Home, School and Church)
Bernie Stevens (Abydos Innovations) has donated (2) a-pads (Android Tablets) to our home children.  Here is an example to show what a difference these a-pads are making.  

One day, early morning Pradeep came to my wife and asked her, "Mom, give me a tablet."
At first my wife did not understand what he meant. She thought he was asking for medicine.  
Then he rephrased it and used the word "Tab." Then she understood that he was asking for -a-pads. 
He loves to play with a-pads. 
Though the children came from a very poor background, never had access to these gadgets, they are clever enough to figure out to use them. Using the wi fi,  they are downloading new apps.
To my amazement, today one of the boys downloaded Telugu Bible free and reading the Bible in his a-pad. 

Isn’t it amazing?

I thank God for this blessing,

Pastor Shravan, India
