What Angels Do!

Breaking the sound of silence, a whisper of hope is born. An Angel treads softly seeking the lost and the forlorn. A sign here, a signal there and from across the miles, Loving, Caring people gather to reach out and bring about a smile

Photos

Please do go through our photo album and see the joy that Whispering Hope spreads around from time to time.

All this was made possible with the help of our sponsors from many a land - Australia, Canada, England, India, Oman, Singapore, Thailand, Turkey, UAE and Zimbabwe.

May God bless you and keep you in His loving care.

Whispering Hope goes on Holiday!

Once the 'Summer Holiday in Guntur' program concluded for three batches of people, it is now time for Whispering Hope to go on a much needed break.  We just have to get through some school fee payments, give a helping hand to a polio affected young lady a new pair of calipers, and take care of a couple of needs and then Whispering Hope will shut shop until the next time!

Thank You!

A big thank you goes out to all our sponsors for making it possible for Whispering Hope to reach out to so many people in need.  Whether it be for medicines, little treats, pensions, school fees, WH sponsors are always ready to help.  Some of the sponsors have been with us from the very beginning and some come and go.  We pray for these GEMS and their families that God will bless them abundantly and grace their lives with His loving presence.

We would also like to thank Gillian Chua and her husband Peter Henry from Singapore for their help in distributing little diaries dedicated to our Blessed Mother Mary.  May our Lady continue to inspire them in bringing the faithful closer to our Lord Jesus Christ.

Guntur - Here we come!

As part of our annual holiday plan, Sita and her sons Sagar & Samir, Shoba and her husband Venkatesh and their little daughter Bomi, landed in Guntur to spend a few days with me.  From past posts, one can gather that these children are Whispering Hope's favourites.  From icecream treats to pizzas, from temple tours to chilling out at home, the kids enjoyed themselves thoroughly and it was  a pleasure to bond with them. 

When I ask my sponsor Biju Damodaran to help me out with my plans, he turns out to be a shiny knight in armour and gives me a giant helping hand!  I just cant begin to understand how I could do without him and his lovely wife Sudha.  Thank you so much Biju and Sudha for giving these kids and their parents the best of times - a memory which they will cherish in their young hearts for many a year.

Summer Holidays

It is not always that a warm welcome is extended to the less fortunate people that we get to meet from time to time.  This time Whispering Hope treated a young widow Lizzy and her two little sons, Joshua and Kevin.  They were accompanied by her mother Lourda Mary and came all the way from Mysore to Guntur to spend a few days with me.  From Guntur they moved onto Vizag where they spent some quality time with their relatives.  Lizzy's husband died in a road accident leaving her bereft.  Its heart rending to see her struggle to bring up her two little boys and we hope to have the privilege of giving her a helping hand from time to time.

A huge 'thank you' goes out to the vivacious Vivienne Manuel from Sydney for making this a dream come true for the young Lizzy and her family.
