INCOR's involvement in India
India is the second most populous country in the world, which includes some of the most educated and wealthy persons on earth but also the largest numbers of very poor and illiterate persons. A republic in government, the constitution grants freedom of religion, but many states have restricted those freedoms by passing local laws forbidding any activity that would lead to changing religious affiliation.
The Christian community in India is also often confronted by fanatical opponents from Muslim or Hindu background. Well-documented cases of physical abuse, murder, destruction of property such as burning down churches, and other violence against Christians are known, and sometimes appear to be ignored by the justice system.
INCOR’s efforts to help in India include support of humanitarian programs such as schools for children, orphanages, medical clinics, inpatient addiction treatment program and feeding assistance, as well as encouragement of local Christians and their work.
