As Jesus was ascended into heaven, he left his disciples saying, "You shall be my witnesses" (Acts 1:8), so that we continue his mission and ministry with the collaboration of the Holy Spirit. Jai ho here depicts what does it mean to be witnesses of Jesus today. Having heard about "Your Local Pantry" project of the Church Action of Poverty, which is striving to unlock food poverty, by offering food to those people on lower incomes, Jai ho places such an initiative as witnessing Jesus today. We see Jesus in the Pantry joining with others in addressing food poverty. For more details on the Pantry scheme visit: https://www.yourlocalpantry.co.uk/. Also join and support Church Action on Poverty in addressing issues of poverty, for they have been on the mission of justice, and for more details visit: https://www.church-poverty.org.uk/.
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.
