This is Elsy Benny writing letter to you. Firstly I convey thanks and love in the name of my family and myself. I always remember you in my prayers. Wish you a merry Christmas and A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

This December 15th was the second death anniversary of my husband Benny. I took care of my two daughters Akshya, Akshara and my father. We lived in a small shed covered with a plastic sheet. During rainy season our house filled with rain water and we suffered a lot.

But now we have a good house with 3 rooms, a kitchen and a sit out. Now we have all basic facilities within our house itself. We are extremely thankful for giving us all these which helped us to improve our quality of life.

We always pray for your good health and good life to God. Once again I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

With lots of love

Loving Deb & Tom,

Hope you all are keeping fine. By the grace of God we are also keeping well. In many years my wife and four children are living with my elder brother’s family. I didn’t have enough money to build a house. My children can’t study well in that atmosphere. Now we are grateful to you for understanding our situations and gave enough money for the construction of my new house.

I am glad to inform you, by the grace of God the house construction is finished beautifully. Today, 27th November blessing and house warming is arranged. This CHRISTMAS will be very special for us. Our great dream come true. We are very happy for your CHRISTMAS GIFT. We are sending this letter along with your gift ie, photo of the new house.

We are very much grateful to the Almighty and you, for the help, that more than we have desired. We thank our good God that HE changed our sorrow in to joy. We pray for you and your family every day. May the Infant in the manger grant peace and joy abundantly.

With much love and prayers,
Vilson Peter

Dear Mary,

Hope you all are keeping fine. We are writing this letter with many many thanks. We don’t know how to express our thanks. We are grateful to you because you helped us to make a house through Weshare & VSSS. We are remembering you with gratitude and also praying for you. We got a good house with your good mind. We have desire and ask to God but HE gives more than that we ask. May the Good God bless you abundantly from his treasury.

The house warming was over . It was blessed by the parish priest. Now we are very happy. My children can study nicely now in this house. Now myself and children are very happy. I can’t make a house by me alone. If you were not there to give your help, I could not have made a house like this. Now we are happy to get a good house as our own. Hope you all keeping fine. Is your jobs are going nicely? Pray for us in your prayer. We are praying for you everyday. Once again myself and my children are grateful to you for your kind help.

Wilson Peter and his family are living with his brother in a very small house. His brother has his wife and a son who is married recently. These 4 members and Wilson’s 6 members, all together 10 members are living in a old small house and 4 cents of land . they are very poor. Wilson met with an accident at his work field and is unable to walk straight and do heavy work.

They are not able to find some space to sleep safe and unable to study calmly. If we can help them during this Lenten season they will be so happy. (Wilson’s brother’s son and wife are not in the photo so I have added an extra photo of them)

She is a mother of two children: one girl and one boy. Her husband left her and the children six years back. He never came back and his where about is not known. The only source of income for the family is the meager earning the mother makes from house hold works she does in neighboring houses.

Mrs Beena has 3 cents of land in which there is a shanty house. The present shelter is not at all safe and it may collapse at any time. She earnestly aspires to have a secure house for herself and her children. She is seeking the assistance of generous people to help her with this.

I  am  Baisil, the  parishioner of St. Peter’s church Kumarakom. My family consists of my mother, wife and 3 children. I am a casual labor. My wife is working as an animator in VSSS.

We did  not have a good  house.  In this  situation  God  has  sent  you  as a messenger  to me through VSSS with your help. We thank you for, granting  us  financial help for the construction of our house through VSSS.

While this construction was going on, we can’t  forget the flood disaster it had  destroyed everything in  many places in Kerala . Even though  the construction was not finished, we did not go to any  refugee camps, by the grace of God our  new house  was  not sunk in the flood.  We could being in our own house.

So we are very grateful to you for granting us  new and good  house. We have no words to say  thanks . We wish and pray  that,  may good  God bless you all.

With gratitude’s  and prayerful  wishes.

Baisil & family.
