We are a partnership of Christians in Abilene, Texas, and Tenali, India. Together, we support and operate a children's home located in Tenali. On the Indian side, the director is Isaac Palaparthi. Isaac is a devoted minister who has long had a desire to help the needy children in his area. On the American side, the main contacts are Ray and Amanda Pettit, who have supported Isaac's work for over a decade.

Sanctuary Home was just getting started in March 2006, and we are so pleased to announce our opening day on June 1, 2006. Currently we have seventy-eight children with sponsors who have moved into Sanctuary Home. God has provided for all of these children in an amazing way, and continues to touch the hearts of many who hear about this mission. At Sanctuary Home, the children have shelter, beds, clothes, food, protection, medical care, mentoring, and education. Is there a way you could help us?

Note: the numbers quoted on this page are current as of January 30, 2008. To see exactly how many are sponsored, visit The Children.

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.  James 1:27
