During my visits in October, 2002;
and
April 2003 we had lots of fun,
which the following photo collages show nicely.
I am sure you will
enjoy seeing
all the love, and the happy faces.
We saved
Ruby
from the common "poor folks early teenage marriage" (15-16 yrs age);
then at 20 years of age, she
got married in Dec. of 2003 to a fellow named Ganga.
Yes,
this is all an incredible
gift
and uplift in life for a previously homeless and financially poor
family.
For them, god walked
into their lives,
manifesting quite an incredible and wonderful change.
Their
gratefulness, however, was easily
matched by my own, not only for their presence in my life,
but also for the opportunity to
affect and see such changes and wonder in their lives...
to have truly and visibly
made such a difference in life for an entire family.
The
English Medium School
costs
approximately $1000 per year for Jyoti and Sagar,
which includes transportation and a private tutor.
This expense the Samadhi
Hermitage
will continue to bear until they graduate.
We
are still supporting the family, altho currently (2010) we are engaged
in a small business project
which we hope will enable them to be self-sufficient.
It is
important to do so, for they as well as ourselves.
Rentable rooms, with private kitchen and bath are being constructed on
a small piece of land;
however we lack funds to complete this work.
Any
and all donations will
surely be appreciated to help with these expenses.
Thank you very much for your kind consideration of this matter.
