TESTIMONY

SUHASINI CHAVAN
My daughter Sejal who is two and a half years old, was born physically abnormal. At 8 months, she was unable to move her limbs and her body remained absolutely stiff, periodically going into sudden tremors. My husband Subhash and I took her to a specialist. We had to get a CT scan done and separate tests for sight hearing and speech. She had brain damage, defect in the arteries of the heart and damage to the optical nerve. We could not afford the expensive treatment that was recommended and so decided to just put our faith in God. We began praying and performing pujas at different places. We did this for a long time, but Sejal remained the same.
One day, one of our neighbors offered to take us to Pastor Robin Almeida’s prayer service. There we came to know about Jesus and became regular attendees. Very soon, we found a marked improvement in Sejal. I’ve been attending the services for almost a year, always carrying Sejal with me. She is gradually recovering and is now able to move all her limbs freely, can crawl, sit, hold things in her hands and put food into her mouth. She can also stand with support, understands everything and is a very happy child. Her sight too is improving. Thank you Jesus!
