What's a Rangoli? Many will ask such a simple question. Actually its basically a (1)traditional decorative folk art of India. These are decorative designs made on floors of living rooms and courtyards during Hindu festivals and are meant as sacred welcoming areas for the Hindu deities.(1)Today I went to find the elderly of St John's Home for the elderly to help them out to make rangolis for the Elderly there. It was behind wantho avenue but we took such a long time to find it. I managed to have a good chat with the taxi drive and now I have his number;)When I reached there, I realised, it was quite big:) I went into the lounge to help. I did translation job when elderly chinese ask the indian volunteers how to do? I helped them translate. It was great helping them too. I helped a “水仙”uncle and used calligraphy and wrote God loves you and my name and my phone number so he can contact me anytime. Such opportunities are so rare.
St John's Home for the elderly started as 3/4 missions coming together to do christ's kingdom work.
