The people in and around prakasam district A.P, India have still vivid memories of late sri Gona Moses, the founder President of St.Pauls Educational Institutions.

Late sri G.Moses was born on 15th July 1925 and bought up in Anumalpalle, Giddalur Mandal Prakasam Dist. Andhra Pradesh, India. He was barely 22 and in the prime of life, he joined army with a fond hope that he would be able to serve the country thinking that servicing the country was serving the people.

He joined the army but having witnessed the Indian soldiers being subjected to ill treatmentby the Britishers who were in higher cadre, he felt frustrated and resigned the job and came home.

He thought of an alternate way to serve the people especially those backward educationally and culturally. It dawned on him that he could make illiterates literate by providing them educational facilities. He started an elementary school in Oddulavagupalle, Giddalur mandal in 1945 with three teachers. He strived hard and developed the school. Feeling encouraged by the success of his efforts he upgraded the elementary school into high elementary school in 1950 with eighth class. During the years several hundred of students passed eighth class and qualified to appear for higher grade teacher Training. Most of the students of eighth class of the school got smaller jobs and they could educate their children with that awareness. Sri G.Moses was soft spoken and silent worker.

Inspired by the success he could achieve he wanted to cater the educational needs of the children of the poor communities in the Giddalur town and surrounding villages, he started an elementary school in Giddalur in 1970. with in a short time it flourished. He worked hard and got the higher elementary school upgraded to high school in 1982. From then, St.Pauls Educational Group has grown and today it has 18 different Educational Institutions at different levels which includes Primary, Secondary, Higher Secondary to P.G. College Education under the able management of Sri Gona Aseervadam the Secretary and Correspondent of the Educational Group.
