The Good Shepherd : a painting

Title: The Good Shepherd

Medium: Watercolor on Handmade paper

It is said that you come to Christ alone but you can only grow along with others. I understand this well. I was nurtured in MMC students’ fellowship during my undergraduate days. I maintain contact with my UG fellowship friends. I am sure I would look to them in times of trouble.

During my PG days a couple of friends in CMC started the “Sheep Fellowship”. I was part of it for a short while at the time of inception. I had to leave as I had completed my course. I was touched by the hospitality of Dr Julie Hephziibah, in whose house we used to meet for fellowship. Fellowship is not just a place where you sing songs, pray and study the Bible. It is a place where we share our lives.

I gifted this painting to Julie akka* as a token of love for all that she does for us.
