Ammal passes into glory

Ammal spent her last days in the house of her grand daughter Eunice Clara Esther who was a nurse in Pondicherry, South India. Eunice is the daughter of Daisy Kohilam, the eldest daughter of Ammal. In her old age, since Ammal had lost her eyesight, she asked her grand children to read the Bible for her. In 1994, she wanted to see her beloved son Samuel in Christia Nagaram, Thiruneveli District, Tamil Nadu.  As soon as she reached Christia Nagaram, the news spread like a wild fire.  Many people made a beeline to the house of Rev.Samuel.  People loved her from their heart. When people called on her in her last days, she did not discuss with them on worldly matters but on spiritual matters. She used to intercede for others by mentioning their names in prayers.   Whenever any food was offered to her, she did not relish it and used to say that she would meet the Lord in the heaven very soon and said that her dying body did not require nutritious food. 

She became very weak since the morning of 14th November 1994. Though she was very weak and sick unto death, she did not lose her consciousness. Though she gasped for breath in the last hours, she was praying fervently, surrounded by her children and grandchildren. At 10 p.m., there was a family prayer.  She sang a hymn in a loud voice.  Then all of them knelt down and recited Psalm 23. As soon as the prayer ended, she said Amen in a loud voice.  She ended the prayer, saying, Bless the Lord, Oh my soul.  She inquired about the time.  They told her that it was 11 p.m. Then she advised them to go to bed.  She called her children, prayed for them individually, and prophesied to her son, The Lord will lead you.  He will use you mightily.  Do not worry about anything.  At about 11.10 P.M. on 14-11-1994, she commended her spirit into the hands of the Lord.

"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints" (Ps.116:15)
