_ open the door ministry and rural development society started in 2003 when God talked to Pastor M.Paul to go to a place called Balusulapalem before marriage and make Him a living church. He was a Prayer group Pastor at Balusulapalem. Open the door ministry and rural development society started in a widow's house in Balusulapalem in her living room with about 11 people. We later increased in number and moved outside in the compound.
From the house we moved into a hall which we rented, this was the most difficult time, we had only one day in a week for fellowship that was a Sunday. We then requested for a Wednesday but we could not raise enough money to pay for the hall. We were sharing the hall with the circular artists, sometimes while we were still in the Sunday service, they were already on the entrance with all their instruments, most times on Sunday morning as we were preparing for the service, we could find condoms used in the night of Saturday, we swept them and had a service in the same place but we still saw the hand of God moving.
We later hired to an open land which was just in front of the hall where we put up a temporary structure. This was a miracle because we started having freedom of worship and this helped the church grow. We informed the people and some of the people helped us to do service the money which was required. After a few months of toiling, praying and believing God started we glorified the name of the living.
We are in the process of building in 5 places and service of god is going in those 5 places. we need to complete those constructions.
