From Trauma to Joy: the transformative power of Go From Trauma to Joy: the transformative power of God’s love for leprosy patients.

Jaipunisha’s story is one filled with heartache, pain, and loneliness. At the young age of 25, she was diagnosed with leprosy, one of the most stigmatized diseases in the world. Her family and community turned their backs on her, leaving her to live in isolation and despair.

Ganesan and his wife Andal are living in a small v Ganesan and his wife Andal are living in a small village near the Kallakurichi district of Tamilnadu. Ganesan contracted leprosy at a very young age and did his treatment in Thiyagadurgam leprosy hospital. His life was one of trial and pain – he is now 73 years old and his only income is a pension from the government. 

All these years Ganesan didn’t want to beg for income or food, so he managed to work on the local farm as a daily laborer. He couldn’t work for long hours because of the physical condition his body was in from leprosy. 

After life took some more tragic turns, Ganesa and his wife were depending solely on the government pension money for their survival. But almost 7 years ago, during one of our visits to a nearby village, the  Embrace a Village team found Ganesan. He still remembers that day very well. He started crying because he couldn’t believe that he received rice and bandages for free.

We began to visit Ganesa at his hut and spend more time with him and got to show the love of Christ to Ganesan and his wife. That really began to transform his life. Ganesan now knows joy in his life, perhaps for the first time.
