The
"Seekers", a group of youth searching for what to make of their lives,
celebrated their Diwali with the Tribals of Ashaghad and Manor.
We
were twelve at Ashaghad and nine at Manor.
The
stay enriched our life and gave a new direction to our thoughts and
feelings.
Come and See...
Life

The joy
of being together
One of the
seekers expresses himself through these words:
"It was a learning
experience with regard to how the Jesuits work with the poor.
We had an opportunity
to stay, interact and work (harvesting) with the people,
whereby we
learnt about their occupation and lifestyle, their joys and sorrows.
Our
experience of harvesting the
rice crops made us realize the hard work the
farmers put in to provide us with food in the cities. We also realized
that
even though India has progressed economically, yet the villages which
provide
us with the raw materials are still
in poverty.
We are very happy
with this mission exposure which made us realize,
“The harvest is plenty but
the labourers are few.” Joyson Lewis
