God in a Box - Rathna's Story

My name is Rathna and I am 10 years old. I am in grade 4. Because my parents are Hindus I had never been to a church or Christian program in my life. That is until this last May.

Last May I was told by one of my friends that there is a place where they give crayons for free. She showed me a box of crayons and a book with lots of Bible story pictures and coloring pages in it that she got at camp. My parents never bought me crayons in my life, so I really wanted to get a box of crayons. That's how first I went to a summer Bible camp in Puram (Tamil Nadu, India).

I had a such a great time that first day that I went for the whole week of day camp. There I learned stories from the Bible, actions songs, games and coloring. I also met many good friends and loving camp counselors at the camp. At first I went to the camp to get a box of crayons, but at the end of the week I got even bigger gift than crayons. I received eternal life in Jesus Christ, which I think is best of all. At the camp I committed myself to follow Jesus in my life, I accepted Him as my personal Saviour.

I learned many things at camp and met many wonderful people. My parents are also happy and they allow me to attend the weekly follow up that happens at the church on Sunday evenings.

Thanks to everyone for my crayons. They where a great gift. They led me to Jesus Christ.
