I am grateful to God and to the sisters of Roha community who gave me this opportunity to have my community experience at Snehavardhini Roha. It was really a beautiful experience in this community living the life and mission of the institute reaching out to the poor people of this area. I am happy because I experience love and care from each sister. I am very grateful to Srs. Janet, Kitty and Suvarna because they have helped me a lot to integrate my life, prayer and apostolic activities. I have learnt many good things from them.

It was a great joy for me to be with the hostel girls helping them in their studies teaching them Hindi and English. I enjoyed so much teaching the small ones. Being with them I came to know and understand them and slowly our relationship with each other grew. They felt free with me to share and I too felt free and could correct them nicely.. I have noticed that the children are interested in studies and can do well in the future.

I went for supervision of supplementary classes to different villages along with the sisters and the animators. It was a different experience for me . As I visited the villages, I felt sad to see their living conditions. Once I had gone for Bal sansad with our social worker Mrs. Ashwini to Bhuneshwar. I will never forget that expereince in my life. We had taken the children to have bath in the river. when we reached the river, Ashwini started giving them bath happily by putting soap on their body and pouring water over them as if they were her own children. I was moved by her gesture and I followed the same. Yes, I had a wonderful experience – Aruna naci.
