Earlier this year plans were in the making for Leena to visit the United States this fall.  The ServeTrust Board of Directors and Leena have determined that Leena’s planned visit to the US must be cancelled due to the risks and limitations of the pandemic. In these precarious economic times, we especially thank you for […]

Thanks to two generous donations designated for the microloan ministry, Leena was able to expand that ministry in 2020. Each January, the participating women meet with Leena in the fishing village of Chirala to receive their loans for the coming year. This past January, Leena increased loans to 66 women from INR 3,000 to INR […]

In late 2019 and early 2020, Leena identified several villages which were in need of clean drinking water.  She then proceeded to research and coordinate the drilling of bore wells in the following villages: Bodipalem, Malapadu, Koppukonda, Nagarjuna, Mooduthumula, Perlapadu and Lakshmipuram. We are extremely grateful that ServeTrust is meeting the needs of the poorest […]

One of the many ministries that receives monthly funds provided by donors is a nutrition program in several tribal villages, providing families a monthly supply of rice and lentils to feed 500 children.  This is necessary because these villagers live secluded from typical Indian society and find it difficult to obtain and keep day labor […]

Leena returned to India on June the 4th after spending 39 days in the United States, her longest trip abroad to date. She was kept very busy visiting churches and nonprofit organizations throughout the Washington, DC area, South Carolina, southern Virginia, North Carolina and Texas. It was a marvelously fruitful trip as she enjoyed visits […]
