In response to the Pentecost story of birthing a new church, Jai ho, in this drawing expresses his vision of a church for today, picking the verse from Acts 2:17, "...your young people will see visions." Jai ho says, "My dream of a church today is a church in an open space where it does not need to be contained in a building but is open to every one in the entire creation. Church for me is a place of healing, feeding, fun, friendship and listening. In the open hands of Holy Spirit church happens, where Jesus rides the boat."
The Pattas, our family name reminds me of our roots,our strong and proud Dalit Christian roots, for once we were no people, but God called us and made us God's people,sustains us to journey with God towards liberation and inspires us to be the channels of life. All those who share such experiences as ours are most welcome to join this blog and join hands in making liberation and freedom a reality to all those that are oppressed.
