Ganga heard about Jesus for the first time when she attended a Gospel for Asia Vacation Bible School held by Pastor Jeeraj. "I enjoyed every bit of it," Ganga said. "I liked the action songs they taught us very much. I sang them to my mom when I came home."
Every night, she also shared the stories with her family, and at the end of the VBS, she received Jesus in her heart. The stories about Jesus didn't impact her family until one night two months later when Ganga's mother was in unbearable pain from a prolonged illness. Ganga's father said, "She asked me to take her to the doctor, but there was some sort of urge within me to take her to the pastor for prayer."
Ganga's parents came to Pastor Jeeraj in the middle of the night, and he prayed for several hours until the Lord miraculously healed her. "I was relieved of pain immediately, and peace filled my heart," Ganga's mother said. "Right away, I received Him as my Lord."
Now Ganga's family and several of their relatives have given their lives to Christ and attend the church Pastor Jeeraj pastors. "I want to come to VBS next year too, and take all my brothers and sisters with me," Ganga said.
"In the future if we continue having VBS programs like this," said Pastor Jeeraj, "definitely we will be able to reach several hundred families with the Gospel."
