Licence for five years

Today, march 18th 2017

we got the LICENCE
to run our childrenhome Rita for 75 kids  for the next five years.

This licence was given
by the Women and Child Department of the government in Bangalore.

We are very thankful.
So we can plan for the future and invite five generations of kids.

the couple:   Mahesh and Reshma

 

Dr. Arulappa Gerard.

 

Donation for Childrenhome RITA

 Dr Gerard in India recently had one donor cover the costs, for 10 months to a year, at his children’s home. Praise the LORD. Took a few days to gather proper paperwork for the IRS and handle wiring the funds properly. They had fallen behind a month so this was a huge answer to prayer.

After some years they also left him and some one else has recommended to our home and now he is with us.

ASHRAYA Catastrophe

Das bitteren Ende einer zehnjährigen Zusammenarbeit.

Am 21.12.2014 nach Abschluss des festlichen Weihnachtsgottesdienstes
im Kinderheim RITA ereignete sich eine schreckliche Katastrophe.
Dr.Gerard am Steuer des von uns finanzierten roten ASHRAYA-Autos
verunglückte schuldhaft auf der Rückfahrt nach Bangalore.

Pastor Prabhakar, der einen Sonntagsgottesdienst geleitet hatte, verstarb am Unfallort.
Sein junger Sohn erlitt nur leichte Verletzungen, seine Frau Susheela und Dr. Gerard selber schwebten in Lebensgefahr, konnten aber gerettet werden.
Sie erlitten schwerste Knochenbrüche und Kopf und Hirn-Verletzungen.

Dr. Gerard bleibt weiterhin Präsident des ASHRAYA-Trusts, hat die Geschäftsführung jedoch an seine älteste Tochter Sharley (*1990) übergeben.

Schon während meines Besuchs im Sommer 2014 wurden schwere Mängel
und Unregelmäßigkeiten in der Ashraya Administration aufgedeckt.
Dies alles führte nun dazu, daß der Kooperationsvertrag von
GEBENDE HÄNDE gGmbH, Bonn und ASHRAYA-TRUST, Bangalore beendet wird.

Seit zehn Jahren wird das ASHRAYA-Hilfswerk von deutschen Sponsoren getragen,
denen ich für Ihre unermüdliche Unterstützung von Herzen danke.

Es ist nicht verwunderlich, daß sich unsere Hauptsponsoren unter diesen Umständen zurückgezogen haben, sodaß der Zusammenarbeitsvertrag zwischen ASHRAYA und GEBENDE HÄNDE Bonn zum Ende des zweiten Quartals 2015, also zum 30.Juni gekündigt werden mußte.

Das RITA-Kinderheim, der wichtigste Schwerpunkt unserer Arbeit,
wird von AHRAYA-TRUST weiter betrieben und am 1. Juni zu Beginn des neuen Schuljahres wieder geöffnet.

Dr. Peter Heyderhoff.

Neue Gläubige in Alipura

In einem festlichen Gottesdienst am 7. Dezember in der Kreuzweg-Kirche in Alipura
wurden neun neue Gläubige in die Gemeinde aufgenommen. Dr. Gerard leitete diesen Gottesdienst.
