My name is Premdas Ponaganti, I was born and brought up in a remote village (Vennampalli) of Karimnagar District.

I completed my BA, English and am presently working on my B.Th.

I have been working with Shining Stars since June 2000.

I have been married since 2002 and have three children SP Desiree is 13 years old, SP Blessie, 10 years and SP Jasper, 9 years. My role in Shining Stars is Office manager and overseeing two other holistic developmental centres.

My personal vision for my role in Shining Stars is to develop the young leaders that they may walk with Jesus and lead many to Him and give their help back to Shining Stars.
