Chennamma’s Story: From Silent Sorrow to Sewing Hope

Chennamma’s life was weighed down by sorrow and exhaustion. The death of her beloved daughter shattered her world. Her grief deepened when her son-in-law abandoned their two small children to remarry, leaving the toddlers without the warmth and love of a mother.

Too young to understand the finality of death, the children cried endlessly—for their mother’s milk, for her embrace, for a comfort that would never return. Chennamma, elderly and frail, did everything she could to soothe them. But her husband’s meager farming income barely covered their needs, and the emotional toll was immense.

💔 “At night, I cried as they cried. I asked Jesus, 'How will I carry this burden?'”

In the stillness of those nights, Chennamma poured out her soul in prayer—asking Jesus for strength, mercy, and a path forward. And in His boundless compassion, God answered her cries.

Through the grace-filled outreach of Helping Arms, Chennamma was offered a sewing job—a gift that brought not only financial stability but also healing to her heart. With every stitch, she began to weave love back into their lives, whispering silent prayers of thanks with every thread.


✨ Love Sewn into Every Stitch

The pain once etched in her grandchildren’s eyes is slowly being replaced by hope-filled smiles. Their days are now shaped by education, dreams, and the warmth of their grandmother’s unwavering love.

💬 “Every morning, I thank Jesus for Helping Arms,” she says.
“He sent them to carry us through our sorrow—and now, we are sewing our way to a brighter future.”
