Her husband had died since 1992 and her 17 years old daughter is also a disciple in the Teens Ministry.Mrs. Ria is a joyful, faithful and committed person. Through her, both her parents have become Christians. Her father had died 2 years ago. Her sister and sister-in-law have also been won over for Christ. Mrs. Ria actively involved in the Praying Ministry, visiting the sick, discipling partnership and helping others to study the Word of God.
The commitment as a disciple of Jesus is very clearly seen in her life. Even when she got an accident on 21th July last year, she did not loose heart. Her left leg was hit by a collapsing wall struck by a truck in her working place, breaking it and causing her to be hospitalized for about 3 (three) month.
Mrs. Ria is such a good example as a disciple who always appreciate the Church and the fellowship. You will not see any burden on her face, instead there is always a smile and shining joy. “If you are sick physically, you must not let your heart get sick too”, she said when we asked her what makes her so strong and happy living as a disciple.
