Healing Hands Gregg Brekke

Nancy Lott arrived in India in July of 1960, a newly commissioned missionary nurse from the United States eager to serve rural populations. In her first few years of service she learned the language, became nursing superintendent of a mission hospital, and met a handsome and talented Indian surgeon, Virendra Henry. Their marriage and partnership in medical mission would take them throughout Northern India, transforming the operation and sustainability of many mission hospitals. Together they raised three children, went to America, and returned to India to continue providing health and educational opportunities in remote areas, even as they experienced heartache and loss. Their life's work touched and continues to assist thousands of people. Their love for one another and dedication to empowering the people of rural India has inspired even more.
