In the middle of Kottayam, the Women's Fellowship of the Diocese of Madhaya Kerala runs an incredible outreach center to help the city's poor and elderly.
The Jewel Box restaurant serves tea, raising money for a variety of causes. One of the most interesting details is a painting of Jesus as a teen-ager that hangs over a table near the entrance. "I've never seen Jesus as a teen-ager," Heather, Trinity Cathedral's youth ministry leader, said. "I've never even thought about what he might look like then."
The diocese employes seven women who earn earn about $1,500 Rupes (or roughly $32) a month. The profits go toward medical, education and children's ministries.
