"We Shall Overcome!"
On top of a mountain, after the trek at Vagamon
Children’s Village kids celebrated Christmas with the Gabriel's at a hill station at Vagamon this year. This was the first time they were getting out of the campus since the lockdown started in March.The two day trip in the cold weather was a wonderful experience for the young and old alike. The kids sang and danced all the way down and back during the two hour trip. The trek they did was the highlight of the trip. The sense of accomplishment each one experienced is indescribable. Christmas was celebrated with fireworks, camp fire, lots of games, singing, dancing and good food.
Help Request for a Prosthetic Limb
Bro. Matthai K. T (61) is a member of Christ Church Puthuveli and attending Church services regularly for more than 10 years. He was working as wood cutter and few years back one of His legs was amputated due to wound infection. Since then he was not able to work and his wife meets their daily expenses by a small income that she earns from working as a maid servant in nearby houses.
He was using a prosthetic limb he received from a charitable organisation for last many years and presently it is in a broken and in an unusable condition. A new limb costs around $700/-. Since he is not able to meet the expense, church decided to raise a fund for this cause and was able to raise about $300/-.
Please pray that God will open hearts to contribute to the cause. If any one feels to donate towards this cause, please send it to G.M.I John Gabriel India Fund. Thank you for your partnership and prayers.
