“Jesus was calling me”
Seven years ago , Ishoori Senchuri, then 15, became the answer to her question of how to protect children from traffickers. Living in a Hindu village in the beautiful Himalayan foothills of Nepal, she’d never heard of Jesus-until he appeared to her in a dream.
‘My health was in a very critical situation,’ she explains. ‘I dreamt a white-clothed man was calling me and he told me “I will give you life”. Jesus was calling me to Him.In my dream I also saw a church. So the next day I tried to find the church-and I did so I went there. I heard lots of things about Jesus Christ and salvation. I was completely healed and there was no problem in my stomach after that.’
Ishoori then rented a room and started a church in her own community.(the first) & with the help of Tear Fund began confronting trafficking .

CARE FOR FAMILY EVENT
The problem with parenting is that normally by the time we get the hang of it – we’re redundant! Parenting is a mixture of highs and lows … and everything in between. It can bring some of life’s biggest joys, but also its greatest challenges. For most of us, a bit of encouragement and a reminder that we’re not alone can make a real difference.
During this event, we’ll look at key issues such as communication with our children, setting boundaries, helping them grow in independence while keeping them safe and, above all, building strong bonds with them that will help us weather those teenage storms. We’ll share practical tips that you can take away and put into action at home straightaway. It certainly won’t be dull – there will be lots of humour and you may even shed a tear or two. The aim of this event is to have you leaving inspired and empowered as a mum or dad.
