"In India we find the oldest continually operating pilgrimage tradition in the entire world. The practice of pilgrimage in India is so deeply embedded in the cultural psyche and the number of pilgrimage sites is so large that the entire subcontinent may actually be regarded as one grand and continuous sacred space."
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has organized the Ghar Waapasi program in several Villages in Tirupati Mandalams and Renugunta Mandalam near Tirupati. Our Associates K. Reddappa, K. Subbanna and Rosaiah have been actively involved in visiting several villages in various villages and Mandalas in Chittoor District. They talked to the Hindus in the village about our efforts to welcome back to the Hindu field those who converted to Christianity and sought input from Hindu activists. Our mission is twofold: one is how to stop the conversion and the second is how to bring those Christians back to Hinduism. They distributed a 4-page document containing the rights of Hindus to encounter Christians and how to stop the construction of illegal churches.
Our Pracharaks talked about the deceptive tactics they use to convert Hindus into Christianity. Christian pastors are like leeches who want to suck the Hindu customs and try to digest and pretend that Hindu customs and traditions are from Christianity. Innocent Hindus who do not have any knowledge about the longevity of our customs, how long Christianity is in existence, they tend believe the Pastors since they cannot question them.
GHHF Helped Build Gram Devata Temple near Tirupati
The Grama Devata temple  consisting of  Sri Kavamma Maarayya was located in Saptagiri Kalani in Mangalam , Tirupati Rural Zone.  As this Temple was in a dilapidated condition, they demolished by the villagers in an attempt to rebuild a new Hindu Temple.  But the village secretariat employees, who were Christians , prevented the temple from being built . They have been asking them to the reason for not granting permission to build a new Temple, the villagers have been approached them several times with no hope of getting permission. As soon as our GHHF Pracharaks, Sri Reddappa and Sri Subbanna, found out about this,  they to the Panchayat Office about three  3 months ago and stood by the villagers , talked to the staff of the secretariat , and threatened to file a case against the Church which was built without permission.  They said they will file a case to  dismantle the structure of the adjoining Christian church. Suddenly, the Christians agreed to the construction of Sri Kavamma Maarayya.
Villagers were happy to contribute their labor and with the contribution of about ONE LAKH rupees by GHHF, the construction was completed, and the Temple was opened ceremonially by installing the deities and performing all required pujas.
February 11, 2022, was a special and auspicious day for all the villagers. Finally, with the guidance, and financial support from GHHF, they are able to go to their Grama Devata Temple and fulfill their dream of building this Temple. 
Sri K Reddappa, Coordinator of our activities and who helped them to build the Temple spoke about the mission of GHHF. In order to preserve our heritage and encourage our Hindus to practice their faith, GHHF helps different projects. The villagers are fortunate that they were able to build this temple. He encouraged them to attend the Temple regularly and encounter the Christian missionaries. 
The Villagers expressed their gratitude to GHHF for standing with them and assisting in all possible ways . 
 The Visited other Villages
    They explained the reservations accorded to SCs and BCs as per constitution and how they lose those privileges if they decide to embrace Christianity. There are some cases where people are converting to Christianity from Hinduism but still they take benefits of reservation which is punishable by act as it is against the constitution for example their name and surname will be Hindus but religion would be Christianity.
                They told many Christians and Hindus about the deceptive tactics the Christian missionaries use to convert Hindus into Christianity.   One can see all over the internet that many staged miracles are shown, where somebody who had mental problem get cured; a disabled person miraculously walks and stomach problems get cured. All these miracles are staged and show people with a mission to convert them to Christianity. One can see a video where Brother Anil Kumar, brother-in-law of CM Jaganmohan Reddy, says that he can cure any ailments, and can stop the rain. He has cured several people with his prayer powers, stopped rain and thunder with power of Jesus. Anil Kumar escaped from a major accident near Jaggaiah  Peta in Krishna district. His car was badly damaged in the incident. The injured Brother Anil Kumar was immediately rushed to the MJ Naidu Hospital in Vijayawada where he was given initial treatment. YCP leaders arrived at the hospital after coming to know about the accident. There is no major injury to the CM relative. Anil Kumar has been an active Christian missionary and evangelist. He is holding gospel meetings all across for several decades. The YCP leaders had a big relief after they found out that Anil didn’t suffer serious injuries. Dr MJ Naidu held necessary tests and later discharged Anil.
Then the question is why did he not ask Jesus to stop the car? Why did he go to the Hospital to get treatment? Why did he ask Jesus to cure the injuries? Does it mean that he is faking all these cures and stopping rains are mere deceptive tactics to make money and live-in palaces? Has the Christianity become a billion-dollar business enterprise?
They distributed a 52-page small book and explained the most immoral and indecent statements from the Bible. In Bible, Jesus says that one should not love the world. If they love the world, they do not love the father. 
Tirupati is targeted by Christians
As many of you are aware that the Christians are moving into the sacred city of Tirupati and its periphery in the Chittoor District. They are planning to start converting within a radius of 50 kilometers. Christians are moving into this area to convert as many people as possible to make Tirupati a sacrilegious place instead of keeping it as a sacred place.
Although many Hindu activists are doing many things, their efforts have not infiltrated into the villages where the conversion is taking place on a large scale. As Hindus concentrate on their intellectual endeavors, Christians are concentrating on conversion. It is time for all the intellectuals and activists to pause for a few minutes and look at the ground realities. Our intellectual endeavors and activists’ protests are not reaching the villages where conversion is rampant. We cannot ignore or turn away from what is happening on the ground.
