Baby Girl Home - Home Page Russal, Kamari, and Staff South India The Hindu government still has our girls we saved from infanticide. The Covid19 lockdown brought our fight in the high court to a complete halt. As you can read throughout our other blog posts, people in our State wanted one child. The Eastern slogan: “We two, but we are one.” This means the government only wanted us to have one child. Because of customs in India, girls are very expensive to care for and to raise, so everyone wants a boy. In villages, some people were killing their infants when they discovered they had a girl. We worked in these villages to literally rescue our girls from death. The parents of these girls didn’t want to get caught by the police so most of the details on the paperwork is incorrect. Now, we are in a big battle to make our government return our girls to us. We have made some headway, but it is an ongoing battle we can never give up. Our cost to keep the house for the girls so we can maintain our non-government status is very high. Now, the court is prohibiting us from discussing the Baby Girls Home situation with others. Please email tommy@equipthenations.org for our current information. This past month we have been busy doing personal evangelism. A new resource we have is a book written by a Hindu priest who accepted Christ. He is now in ministry here locally. His testimony is exciting and thousands of people have come to Christ after they have read his book. I met...

Baby Girl Home Russal, Kamari, and Staff Courthouse Battle For Right To Keep Girls – I am standing outside the courthouse house with Karmari. It seems as though we have been living here the past year struggling with the go government with the rights to keep the girls. As you can read throughout the blog, people in our State wanted one child. The Eastern slogan: “We two, but we are one.” This means the government only wanted us to have one child. Because of customs in India, girls are very expensive to care for and raise, so everyone wants a boy. In villages, some people were killing the infant girls and we rescued them from death. These people didn’t want to get caught by the police so their paperwork they gave us was incorrect. Now, we are in a big battle to keep the girls out of “bad orphanages.” Thus far we have spent $15,000 in legal fees. We are expecting to spend another $6000. We need 21 churches to raise $1,000 each of our children so we can finish this epic struggle. Baby Grace is Momma Grace- She is just nine-years-old, she is the Little-House-Mom: Grace talks about how she loves all her sisters and feels a responsibility to care for them. She participates in the school game; she played well so she got a certificate in the school annual day. New Requirement, New Opportunity! This academic year nine of our girls are going to the same school, our school system in our district makes it mandatory that all parents move their child every step to a school with...

Baby Girls Home Ministry Russal & Kumari Greetings: I am Russal Raj and my wife Kumari Russal, while working with the Bitner’s church planting team in an organization called Youth With A Mission we started visiting many remote villages where the people were rejecting their baby girls. We were not able to have children and when we were praying about this, God spoke to us using Gen. 17:4. “As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shall be a father of many nations” (Our Tamil Bible says: “you shall be a father of many Children”). We realized that God had a plan for us and He was going to fulfill it. After this, I had a dream that ‘many small fish were dying because they were out of water. People were stepping on the fish. Some of them were already dead while others were still dying. However, no one cared about any of the fish at all. In the dream, Kumari and I took all the fish and put them back into the water safely. After I woke-up I shared the dream with my wife. She told me that she had the same dream! This confirmed Genesis 17:4 in us, and we accepted that God wanted us to save the baby girls from the horrid death that awaited them. Getting Started We started saving lives. We didn’t care much about who cared; these girls were being killed and we were going to try to stop as many as possible. In some districts the people believe that baby girls are not well and a curse to their...
