Menezes and Sons, Bakers and Confectioners is the first registered bakery in Vadodara started in 1887 and changed owners in 1989. They had a baby Jesus statue that fell and the legs broke but the statue is still with us. I feel sad when I see people living in these pipes and in equally or worse conditions and am amazed how yet they are so happy and positive towards life. Regards Louella Dear Mr. Menezes,

It is amazing how these simple , poor , illiterate, yet more educated than you or me, Hindus, Muslims, Christians know the teachings of their own scriptures and practise it. Why dont you write a piece on Kiran ? George Dear Berna

It is amazing how these simple , poor , illiterate, yet more educated than you or me, Hindus, Muslims, Christians know the teachings of their own scriptures and practise it.

Namrata certainly sounds happy to be a Christian, especially with the majority of christians on St.Pauls rd. This story brings to mind my chat with Kiran, another daily wage worker also from Khandamal, who explained to me the manner in which they pray, fast and observe certain rituals in the true biblical sense. Its remarkable; this woman knows the bible so well without even knowing how to read or write; sometimes catching me unawares by asking me the Gospel reading of the day. Really hope baby Jesus listens to their prayer. Hi George,
