馨香娜(Sinchana Anthony)是菲莉西亞育幼院的主任, 也是她丈夫蕭安東尼(Shyam Anthony)所牧養 “城
市教會”的牧師. 自從她成為牧師的妻子並參與教會的牧養工作後, 她幫助了許多弟兄姊妹,尤其是菲莉西亞育幼院的孩子們。
The Kids in “Felicia Orphanage India” have gone through rough and tough situation and have been through much hurts, pain, rejection and loneliness. Sister Sinchana insists the importance is to bring these kids up in character, in Christ likeness, beside good food, clothes and a home.
菲莉西亞育幼院的孩子來自於艱難與困苦的環境, 經歷許多傷害、痛苦、排斥和孤獨。這些破碎的生命,需要在愛與牧養中才能得到醫治。馨香娜堅持除了提供好的飲食、穿著和居住環境外, 她更看重孩子的生命品格,她要讓這些孩子的生命有基督的樣式!
She comes from a similar background. She was abandoned by her parents in the hospital when she was born and grew up as an orphan. She went through a dark time in her experience, growing up as an orphan. Then she met with Jesus Christ when she was 15 years old and the love of Christ changed her life.
馨香娜來自一個類似的背景。她一出生就被她的父母遺棄在醫院。身為孤兒,她經歷黑暗的成長歲月。然而,在她15歲時遇見了耶穌基督,基督的愛改變了她的生命!
Sister Sinchana Anthony is familiar to these kids and all by the name Minnie. She was born in a poor Hindu family. As per the astrologer, she was a bad omen child for the family. And so, the day she was born she was abandoned by her parents, with no one to care for a day old infant. A day later, a nurse in the same hospital; 58 years old, a mother of nine kids, took pity on this child who was about to be thrown in the garbage.
眾人以及孤兒們都習慣稱呼馨香娜為Minnie。她出生在一個貧窮的印度教家庭。按照占星學家的說法,她是一個會帶給家庭咒詛的孩子。於是,在她出生的那一天,她就被父母所遺棄。只有一天大的她,被遺棄在醫院裡。出生一天後,在醫院裡的一位58歲的護士,同時也是9個孩子的母親,領養了這位可憐且即將被拋棄在垃圾堆的孤兒。
This is how Lord took this child from nowhere to somewhere. Even though she was the adopted daughter, she didn’t receive any kind of love and affection from the family. She grew up taking care of others and by doing the household chores just like a slave.
主用祂的方式帶領馨香娜,將一個原本沒人要的孩子引導成為一個很重要的女士。雖然她是養女,但她並沒有從家庭中得到任何的愛。她從小就要照顧別人、做家務,就像是一個奴隸一樣。
At the age of 6, her mother suffered a paralytic stroke. Nobody was there to take care of this old mother even though she had 6 daughters and 3 sons, very well to do financially, except this 6 year old adopted child. She cared her mother as if she was meant to do that only.
在6歲時,她的養母中風癱瘓。這位癱瘓的養母,即便她有6個親生女兒和3個親生兒子,並且在經濟上不虞匱乏,但除了這位6歲的養女外,沒有人可以照顧她。馨香娜視照顧她的養母為她的本分。
She sensed the vision the Lord wanted her to do for Him at this young age. She faced lots of trials but overcame all those trails in a very dramatic way. She was in her teenage without any protection, yet remained pure. This is how Lord protects His Chosen Vessel.
馨香娜在這麼年輕時,就明白神對她的心意。她經歷了許多試煉,但戲劇性地突破所有的困難。在沒有任何保護之下,她仍然在青少年時期,保守聖潔!主真是保護祂所揀選的器皿!
Now God has strengthened her in a very miraculous way where she is not looking for a love for her but is to share the God’s love with the unloved; and has given her a ministry of healing other people, given her a testimony, drawn her closer to Him and to the people.
現在,神以奇妙的方式堅固她,她不是在為自己尋找愛,她是和那些需要愛的人分享上帝的愛;神將醫治事工放在她的手中,神讓她做美好的見證,神也使她與人們與神自己更親近。
