[GHHF] Ghar Waapasi in East Godavari District. Welcomed 11 Families
Thomas Paine
The obscene and vulgar stories in the Bible are as repugnant to our ideas of the purity of a Divine Being, as the horrid cruelties and murders it ascribes to Him are repugnant to our ideas of His justice”
As many of you are aware that in East Godavari District, many fisherman families have been converted to Christianity. Many of them are realizing that they have made a wrong decision. Mr. Kollu Srinivas Raju who has been working in the fisherman community for a number of years, who have challenged the construction of new Churches and who has written letters to MRO, DRO and District Collector to stop the Sunday Christian sermons on the loudspeakers as per the Pollution Act which specifies restrictions on the noise pollution. Now the Christian sermons were confined to their four walls in the area.
Since Srinivasa Raju is from the same area, he and his family members slowly start going to Christian families and talking about Hinduism and how it compares with Bible. You can see that he has distributed Kumkum Bharanis to the ladies who returned to Hinduism. And they have taken an oath that they will protect Hinduism, they will remain Hindus for the rest of their lives, and encounter Christian deceptive practices.
He and his associates visited three villages and talked about Hinduism and Christianity. In their dialogue, some of the Christians accepted the fact that they were duped into accepting Christianity. Even since they changed to Christianity, they never felt that it was their religion. They felt strange to sit in the church and listen to the Pastor which did not make any sense. In those communities, applying Tilak on their forehead is a mark of their identity with Hinduism. Thus, they distributed Kumkum Bharanis (Boxes) welcoming them to Hinduism.
Mr. Srinivasa Raju is distributing 4-page flyer and explaining the legal rights of Hindus to protect themselves from Christian aggression and has formed a WOMEN VOLUNTEER GROUP and asking them to go to the Christian families in the Villages to talk about the virtues of Hinduism and hateful passages from the Bible.
