Dear Lathika,
I thank God for the care you and Fr. James showered on us at Peradeniya. We all so looked forward to coming up to Church each sunday, and Fr. James' hall visits which he never missed. Because of your love church was the best part of Peradeniya for me. He spoke beautifully. I was so happy to hear him mention the Jesus prayer which l was able to experience later when I was teaching at Peradeniya and living in Upper Hantana. He taught us to sing the liturgy, bit fancy for a Methodist. The campfire and freshers' welcome under him in those mountains were so ethereal. Your home was always open to us and you both kept us all together as one family.
Fr. James was known to four generations of my family. My uncle Gnany and he were roommates in London. And you are the most gracious lady I have seen. Thank you both always. Father James served the church so well. All praise to God.
