About Nirmala Govardhan Bhil
Nirmala was unable to keep up in school due to age and lack of prior education - note 08//30/2018
Nirmala came to the Mercy Home from an extremely remote tribal community where she lived in a jungle with her parents, two brothers, and three sisters. The people of the tribe are very strong Christians and they focus on righteous living. When they became believers, they were forced out from their region, so they moved together out in a jungle. Nirmala's father is the leader of their tribe, and their family constructed an adjoining room in their hut to use for community worship services. They live in extreme simplicity but have a strong faith in Jesus Christ. They don’t have electricity in their homes and live in great poverty. The tribe members never went to school. However, now they realize that school would give their children a much better future. They came to us requesting that we do something for their children’s education and guide their children to a way of dignity, hope, and a future.
Nirmala and three of her siblings, Rekha, Yakub, and Ashish are happy to be part of the Mercy Home family. She loves the Lord and is very active in church activities. Nirmala wants to become a teacher one day. She enjoys dancing and playing badminton. Her favorite foods are rice, dal (pulses soup), chicken curry, and puri (Indian bread).
Thank you for helping provide Hope, Dignity and a Future to Nirmala!
