Overview

"Bhagyam's desire was to bring hope of a better life to the poor children living in utter poverty. Her heart went out to the abused children who were never shown any love. She took pleasure in telling them about how much Jesus loves them and that He is building beautiful mansions for them. It was important for her to have them forget their current circumstance and visualize Jesus and the heavenly mansions He is preparing for them. Hundreds of children were given free education through this vision. The stories in this book are a sampling of the children's lives and what a message of hope, love and a Savior can do for these children. For twenty years, she worked in the villages and experienced the hardship that faced them. She always said, ""There is no greater joy than to bring a poor, sad, and beaten child to experience the love of Jesus."""

"Bhagyam Moses has authored a beautiful book for children, based on real life encounters in India. Her loving spirit of sharing and caring for children living in poverty reminds us that, as followers of Jesus of Nazareth, we too are called to show love. Children here, too, can pray expecting to be heard by God. We, too, can pray for children working on construction sites and sleeping on the cold ground. Noelene Johnsson Children's Ministries Director at North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists, Editor of Mission for the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists These stories are living examples of the Word in our everyday lives. It is so inspiring how Mrs. Moses loved and served the hurting by being the hands and feet of Jesus. We are so happy that she wrote this book by tying each account with the scriptures. It is a great lesson on why we do what we do. This book and the FETCH work truly spurs you to pause, take the situation in, and act on it as we are told in James 1:22-""But be doers of the word, and not hearers only."" The story of Rakesh is especially touching as he is preaching the gospel across the world. He, and many of the other kids, trust in Jesus despite all the odds standing against them; their zeal is inspirational. Mercy Sudhakar Panthulu Founder of MUCH Hope, Chairperson of the Bridges Community Church Deaconess Board Namaste! Meet My Jesus illustrates the intent of our Saviour who extended his gospel of love to children. The author exemplifies this ministry of Jesus in her ongoing relationships with underprivileged children. If you have not experienced the rewards that come from hugging an unloved child, or sharing what you have with kids who have nothing, you must read this book. Gordon Christo President, Save the Orphans Please (India) Secretary, Orphan Relief Society Former Secretary, Southern Asia Division The author's plain-spoken emotive book reflects twenty years listening to East Indian children's pain, struggles, victories and dreams. With authenticity and realism, she shares 13 true stories of how impoverished children's prayers changed circumstances, transformed anger into compassion, healed ruptured familial bonds, and set the foundation for a richer tomorrow. While each story stands in its own uniqueness, taken together they brilliantly unveil the gospel as a powerful transformative agent. Thirteen children internalized one basic message: Jesus, the living King of the Universe, cares deeply for me. What a game changer!! I'm an empowered prayer warrior; not a victim. I can overcome adversities; I can make my dreams a reality. This book's major take away is both simple and profound. When you are feeling overwhelmed by the difficulties of life, be revitalized by remembering the innocent belief of a child who meets Jesus.
