Who We Are

In 2006 through the influence of his father Rev. Mindi Esau, Pastor M. Jessy Ratna Kumar founded The Harvest Mission Trust. It is a nonprofit organization established and directed by Jessy Mindi and his family serving the poor and needy of Visakhapatnam and its neighboring villages.

Since 2006 HMT has developed a campus on a two acre site and has constructed a home for children and a home for widows. COVID had forced their shutdown but recently they have been given the freedom to reopen. They now provide a home for 72 children and hope to provide a permanent home for some widows.

Recently they opened a nonprofit dental clinic operated by Jessy’s daughter and husband, a dentist, and a medical doctor.

They continue support the development of village communities.
