Dutch Foundation for Ladakhi Nuns

Then there's Josje. A lady in her nineties who decided to include the DFLN in her will. We don't call her by her full name, but want to thank her for her generous gift. Her last words about her decision: "Now I can watch over the nuns enjoying what I gave them from above." In the future, her name will be shown on a prayer wheel to be built, so that every time when it is rotated, she will be remembered.

Despite the recession, the tip jar for Gephel monastery in Ladakh again well filled.

The guests throughout the season gave the large amount of € 980, -. This is a welcome addition to the study projects of the young convent. The nuns are all studying and learning this year as the first group of nuns in Ladakh, making sand mandalas.

Henk and Ada Knol also decided to increase their sponsorship to € 400, - because the cost of living in Ladakh have increased seriously.

We are grateful for their annual support.

Years ago was a thriving contact the campsite "les Matherons' in southern France, run by Henk Knol and Ada.

Les Matherons is a camp in the French Alpes de Haute Provence in southeast France near the town Puimichel. Henk and Ada Knol, the owners of the site, people want a holiday experience surrounded by calm, with space for reflection and choices for a number of activities.
