The life of the people
of Nepal worsened due powerful earthquakes which hit
some parts of the country. The poor were affected the most. Many lost their
near and dear ones and their belongings, some were left handicapped
for life without hands and legs. Many people were traumatized by
this incident. Volunteers came from all over India, also different countries
like China, Korea and USA to lend a helping hand. CHAI (Secunderabad)
had organized medical camps and sent volunteers to reach out to the victims.
With the help of Jesuit fathers, myself a Carmelite Missionary and other Congregations
like the Daughters’ of the cross and St. Anne’s' of Charity rendered our
service. We were mostly sent to remote and lonely areas, with bad roads
and huge mountains where government help had not reached. We helped
the people by giving medical care as well as the psychological support. We went
to different districts each day with food kits and medicines to help the
people. I had challenging experience and am grateful to my congregation for
giving me this opportunity of helping my people.
