 At Preethi Nivas Trust, we believe that serving those in need is a sacred responsibility. Our journey has been guided by compassion, humility, and the conviction that every person carries inherent dignity. By creating a home of care and gentleness, we have:

Restored hope, dignity, and belonging to those facing vulnerability

Offered comfort for the body and solace for the heart

Provided steadfast companionship where there might otherwise be loneliness

Inspired a spirit of giving within the community

Each act of service—however small—has been an offering: a step toward healing, wholeness, and shared humanity for the last 25 years in Bangalore.

Guanellian mission is desired for most abandoned people in the society. Guanellian vocation is apostolic in nature, which assimilates the mission of the founder as his/ her own, partaking in the life of Christ and in communion with the entire church.

In the words of our founder “a Christian heart, which believes and is sensitive, cannot witness the needs of the poor without relieving them.” Our founder urges us to be disciples who consecrate themselves to god for the poor. The Guanellian families share a common mission and are jointly responsible according to the richness of the gift received from God.

Missionary invitation: “Come and follow me”

Apostolic zeal: I want to be a fiery sword in the holy ministry.

Demands of Guanellian mission: Faith, Charity and Competence
