We were blessed as
a church when, five years ago, we were joined by the George family, as Mariam
came to Leicester to train as a Terminal Care Doctor. All four have entered
into every part of our church life – Mariam even preached at our day of
Pentecost service. Their enthusiasm, and that of their children, has been
infectious. Their presence has also taught us more about the life of the church
in South India, where they came from.
At our service
on Sunday, the parents were briefly interviewed about their future in Salford.
The children received gifts from their groups and we prayed for the whole family
as it resettles.
After the
service, they treated the congregation to samosas and cakes.
