India here we come!

Hello again friends,

In just four weeks, I will be leading a team of 9 to the country of India. Though this is my first trip to India, I certainly feel the Lord has been preparing my heart and the hearts of our team for a truly powerful trip to India. Myself and my co-leader Shawna have been working hard to prepare this trip. Now that we are almost done dealing with the struggles of obtaining an India VISA, we have been able to start setting up ministries opportunities. God has been so faithful to open up some amazing doors to share the love of God in India.

First, when we arrive in India, we are hoping to have a few days to a week of bringing Christ's love to the sets and people of Bollywood, India's Hollywood. Following this, we are taking a 10-12 hour train ride (should be an experience) to Wharda to work with a church-planting group for four weeks! There is an opportunity to share the Gospel with very young believers and maybe some who have never heard of the wonderful love of Jesus and who He is. My heart is moved each time I think about this chance to share on the life of Jesus. Followin
g this, we will take the train ride back Mumbai to work in slums, orphanages, and the red light district for a month. This is the basic outline of our trip to India. God is good!

There will likely be a few minor changes to the trip with possibly one major change for our month in Mumbai, but I will be sure to keep everyone updated. Pleas
e be praying that we see the people of India just as the Lord does and that we follow His leading in India.

Here is a photo of our team of 9. (They are amazing!)

There is so much more to share on this team and India. So please call, email and ask any questions you have. Love and joy from Jesus...
