Soon God stirred his heart to start a church in the midst of poverty stricken area and called it Bethel Gospel Church which is on the bank of river Musi in the city of Hyderabad.
Having been faced and lived in poverty himself pastor Sudhakar in his own ways tries to bring about a ray of hope In destitute lives through the grace of Jesus Christ.
