Inside the church

It's been nearly three months since I left India, carrying the memories of the villages, the nice people and children. My scribbling pad (which I used to hurriedly jot down things that I observed, heard and felt in these places) brings a smile to my face. I find many "to write about" story hints and quotes, scribbled all over the pages. But, I never did, because of (lack of) time and energy. Instead, I captured those moments and stories with my camera. Here is one such photo, taken in a nice, old church, that reminds me of the Bhajanai Mandalis of villages.

Things to notice - the clay tiled roof, the cross on the wall, the drums under the altar, Hindu style designs on the floor.

Father Yesu Antony (CRDS Director) is the one wearing the white shirt and talking to the people.
