Dr. Mrs. Margaret Kishan, Medical Superintendant of Christian Hospital, Indore Passes Away  

Dr. Mrs. Margaret Kishan, wife of Dr. Samuel Kishan, Chief Functionary and Secretary of our Synodical Board of Health Services (SBHS) died at her residence in Indore this morning after a brief illness. She was the Medical Superintendent of the Christian Hospital, Indore under the management of SBHS.  

Dr. Margaret Kishan was a God fearing and committed lady who brought about testifying and visible changes in the life and services of the Hospital which caters to the medical needs of thousands of people, especially the poor, women and children in and around the region. Her leadership quality, soft spoken yet firm determination has been appreciated by one and all.  As a skilled doctor, specialized Gynaecologist, she cheered the lives of many and has, thus, preached the Gospel of healing through her services and commitment for the last 42 years.  

She had joined the Hospital in 1976 and in 1992 became its Medical Superintendent.  She had also served the Central Region Board of Health Services as its Secretary and Treasurer and exhibited outstanding leadership in protecting the image of the Hospital from the beleaguered Court cases and other legal issues that were affecting the ministry and services of the Hospital.  Her death is a great loss to the Church of North India.  

The Moderator and all members of the Church of North India deeply mourn her death.  We request you all to uphold the bereaved family in your prayers.  You may send message of condolence to Dr. Samuel Kishan at the following address.
