The journey towards making the change.....



Girl Power - Anoushka, Gargi, Swati,
Shilpi, Pallavi.
I was a naive girl, who had just completed her graduation and was looking for a break from my reckless and monotonous life. I was a completely metropolitan girl who was born and raised in Delhi and was totally Sehari. I had never thought that I will come across Zoe Mission through my manager in an organization that was far away from all this spiritual and fair deeds. But even though I was in Delhi's best college and had my friends who the coolest people in Delhi, I still wanted to be a part of a project that will give me an opportunity to do something for the poor and socially neglected people. My ex-manager Shalom Sir was a good friend to me and he introduced me to Zoe Mission. I was so happy to be associated with Zoe. Zoe gave me a way to connect with people and know them closely and help them through their miseries. It gave me a way to connect to God and know Him better. Zoe introduced me to a world of spiritual thoughts and beliefs. I was totally taken aback and my thought process changed and I was completely a changed person. I was felt closer to God.
Through Zoe I got an opportunity to work with and connect with so many people who from so many different backgrounds and different cultures.

I had never thought that working for people will be so satisfying and peaceful. Zoe had mission fields in Madhya Pradesh and Delhi NCR. Through Zoe I worked in different projects for children, in medical camps, in clothing camps and even with the darkest side of the society the prostitutes. Zoe had made my mind so broad and so humble that I treat everyone same and with same respect and honor. Initially I was interested to work with the young children who are our country's future. But then I got the toughest and the  most interesting project that I could have ever thought of working on, Project Rehai. Project Rehai was a Spiritual in nature and at the same time it was bold in approach. My parent and even my friends have always treated this project useless. They never gave their yes for this project and always thought of it as pervert mind thinking.

But it was way more satisfying for me. I could connect with the with a smile on my face and talk to them to know their minds. It had taught me treat every person equal and with same respect no matter what their profession was. Project Rehau involves spiritually effecting the minds and teaching them a better way of living not forcibly but through love, affection and prayers. To flag off Project Rehai in Delhi we took up a sub project, Project Red Light at G.B.Road in Old Delhi.
