All our previous visits are recorded on our website, have a look http://www.seraphim.my/divinemercy/neighbour/index-neighbour.htm

 

In this season of Lent, let us exercise our faith in action for the poorest of the poor. 

Let us convey God’s love to them through our love and compassion.

“We have a heart for God if we have a heart for the needy”. 

What qualifies us for eternal life is love. 

It is when we love that we show we know God, for God is love. 

When we help those in need, we find eternal life. 

 

“ For I desire mercy, not sacrifice,

    and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.   (Hosea 6:6)

 

JESUS I TRUST IN YOU

A penurious mother needs your help

http://www.seraphim.my/divinemercy/neighbour/index-MarinaJindum.htm

 

Marina Jindum aged 43, a housewife tends to her four school going children, 3 boys and one girl and her husband, Francis Mabong who had stroke since 2009.

 

The family is staying at a wooden house built on stilts belonging to Marina’s aunty.  Despite the family’s poverty, the house is kept immaculately clean.  Her husband is unable to talk or move around easily and unable to earn a living for the family.  Marina has sought the help of the government welfare department who has granted her a monthly allowance of RM400 via bank simpanan nasional account.  The RM400 could hardly sustain the family with four school going children.  The family survives on handouts from kind neighbours.  There are also days when the children goes without proper meals.  They have no relatives to rely for help.

 

Marina used to go to the RC church before the husband had stroke.  She used to visit the nuns at the Carmelite.  When she was in dire needs for help, she even turns to the nuns for help.  With no assistance at home, taking care of the children and her sick husband, her burden became overwhelming and a great burden.

 

St Vincent de Paul’s members came to interview the family on 1/3/2014 and they will bring forth her case at their meeting.

 

All of her four children study at SMK/SK Semerah Padi

1.    Putra Sanggar, 13 yrs in Form 1.

2.    Puteri Selekawati, 12 yrs in Pri 6.

3.    Putra Nain, 10 yrs in Pri 4.

4.    Putra Aman, 8 yrs in Pri 2.
