Thoroughly Christian & Thoroughly Indian: The Life and Message of Rebecca and AC Oommen

<p>Rev A C Oommmen and Mrs Rebecca Oommen or Achen Oommen and Ammini Kochamma as many knew them were unusual people.&nbsp;</p><p>Simple and Deep. Thoroughly Christian and thoroughly Indian at the same time with no contradiction between the two. They walked their talk. And talked their walk. In obedience to the Divine the fulcrum and centre-point of their lives. &nbsp;</p><p>In the Kerala of their growing years. In the refugee camps of the riot-torn partitioned India of 1947. In the British-ruled Uganda of the 1950&rsquo;s. In the struggles of the church in a pluralistic society. In the exploration of hospital chaplaincy in CMC Vellore searching for a theology of pain and suffering or healing and wholeness. And through the senior years ageing with dignity.&nbsp;</p><p>Their lives tell a story that needs to be told a story that we need to hear today.</p><p>&nbsp;We are grateful to God for the privilege of growing up under their wings and we present this book to you to try and share them with you. We are grateful to our dear friends Drs Sara and Suranjan Bhattacharji of CMC Vellore who have written the Foreword. And we hope you will be blessed and challenged inspired and stimulated by the reading of this book.</p>
