Introduction:-
Dr. S. John David during his visits to Chilakaluripet, Kakinada, Peddapuram and nearby villages, saw that some old women are on the streets, with a bowl for begging. He was moved with compassion and enquired the background of the old age women.  They informed that they were very happy in the past days.  They became and remain as beggars, because of negligence by their kith and kin.  Some died in the corners of the street for lack of proper food, shelter and clothing.  The compassion and love of Jesus Christ constrained Dr. John David and he started oldage homes for giving food, shelter, medicine, affection in their sunset years. Oldage women dwelling in the oldage homes are getting total care and expressing their gratitude to the donors, Wort und Tat, Germany and AMG India. Some of them are determined not to go to their native places but to stay, live and die here only.
