Friends Meet

On Wednesday 17th I went to a small
get together in my aunt 's place
held in honor of Bina and John,
old friends and church members
now settled in the US.
Bina was a science teacher in the High School my mom taught in.
She was instrumental in introducing us
to a Bible study and discipleship group
and student ministry mission.
John an ex OMer married Bina while a seminary student.
My elder sister Anjali was one of their bridesmaids.
They both were members of our church before they moved out of town. John preaching from the Psalms.
On his left is Arun who was saved in our church.
L-R Mala, Bina, Ruth, (Ruth' s parents
Rev Joseph and his wife)
Ruth is a special needs girl (actually a woman in her 30s)
she has the mind of an innocent sweet child.
She loves children and goes everyday
to help out in a pre-nursery school.


L-R Alisha aka Nishu
with her parents
my cousin Manju and her hubby Daniel.
There were many more people at the get together
unfortunately the photos did not show up.

Mala and her hubby ,my cousin Deepak.
They teach Hindi to foreigners from all
over the world.
Deepak is a thinker, author
and a very good preacher.
Both Daniel and Deepak have
a wonderful sense of humor.
Bina and John came to visit us on Thursday.


Here they are with Mom.
At the meeting they shared how the Lord healed
their marriage problems, lives
and bodies.
They don 't have health insurance in the US
and John had to go through major surgeries
which was a terrible strain on them.
Last year Bina was found with breast cancer,
she flew down to India with her (only) grown up
son and had it done.
This year' s examination showed that she is cancer free.
We rejoice with them.
This couple has been through
a lot of heartache and trouble
but today they can truly
say the Lord
put them back together.
