   The word of the Lord came to me saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you  as a prophet to the nation….See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, destroy and overthrow, to build and to  plant.”   (Jeremiah 1:4-5, 10).

  

 

 

 

 

It was a chilly winter morning in January 1980 when I walked down the streets two miles from home to buy charcoal to keep us warm from the cold winter. I was only 12 years old, then. As I stood, by the road side, I saw a woman, who is young, in her mid thirties, carrying a big basket of Charcoal, coming towards me; and as she came along, holding her 6 or 7 year old boy with one hand, and drew closer, I noticed that both the mother and her son were bare-footed, heels bleeding, due to frostbite, their bodies shivering and trembling with cold. They were wearing just old, thin Tee-shirts; the mother put on a short-skirt and the boy was wearing shorts. This is not the first time that I see poor people suffering like this, for I live among them and I am like anyone of them.. But that wintry morning, something strange and surprising happened to me. Seeing their misery made me cry and I prayed quietly to God asking him to make me someone who will be of some help to the poor and needy when I grow up. And I strongly believed that it was God's call to His ministry.

As time goes on, I remembered my prayer that cold, wintry morning. Throughout my High School years I desired to become a doctor so that I WOULD BE OF HELP TO THE POOR AND THE NEEDY. But it never happened. Because it was not what God had intended for me. 

Again, at College I plan to pursue Law degree to be ABLE TO HELP THE POOR AND THE NEEDY, who were being victimized by the cruel money lenders. But this never happened as it is just my own agenda and mission. But after 20 years God let it happen by making me both the physical and spiritual doctor and lawyer of the poor people of North-east India through serving  Him as a church planting pastor and through the ministry of Covenant Children's Home.

 

The Home has grown from those above to those below between 2002 and 2011.


In January 2002 the long dreamt orphanage called “COVENANT CHILDREN’S HOME" was started taking into its care 14 children orphaned by ethnic clashes, drug addiction, and AIDS. Presently, the Home is taking care of 490 orphans. Besides, there are more than 70 orphans who are in need of care but are held back due to lack of financial support for them.

 If you are willing, you can be part of this great challenge in transforming the lives of these innocent children in giving them a better world to live in.  

                Theme song of Covenant Children's Home

He is the Lord of Hope for all  the destitute,
   
             His grace is sufficient for all people;
                He gives joy to all those who draw near Him,
                His goodness is more than tongue can tell.
   
         
   
             I will never be able to tell of the grace of my Lord,
                His goodness for me, I would not describe.
                I will know more of His mercy as I grow up,
   
            
A refuge, for me, He is, now, and forever!

             Mother to the motherless, and Father to the fatherless,
             He gives love to those who has no one to love them;
            He is the Comforter of all those who need comfort, 
            He is the Lord and giver of life to all mankind.
