What a great foundation to build from.

You only have to teach and they only have to learn. You don't have to deal with undoing erroneous teaching... only delivering truth.

Exactly! What an opportunity! The pastor who invited us desperately wants truth as well. There is so much "wackiness" that has infiltrated the Christian church in India. The reason is that these folks just believe what we "Westerners" tell them because they simply trust us. Many factions and many here want to be pastors and denominations will build them a church if they join. So the poor guy who wants to be a pastor is set up with a building and a congregation for just accepting their doctrine whatever that is. Sad, actually...but people are people.

That is why the Bereans were more noble!

This is a short clip praying for the folks showing one lady touching my feet. It is extremely uncomfortable to for me them to do that, but I respected the custom and did not want to offend them. They were so respectful of me and Jesse.

Also, I really don't like the "garland" they put around your neck. It really gets in the way and it ruing my shirt! The shirt was a gift from the first house we visited.

John,

Take the Garland off, when they gave me one, I acknowledged it, but when it came to speaking there, I just took it off.

Lord let understanding, leading & guidance from your Spirit and your Word be a defense against error so that people with an open and honest heart are not led astray.

Words cant even express what it feels like to see the pureness of love for Jesus in this country!!I think every christian in America needs to go and see,and bring back a lesson that these poeple can teach to us on renewing our heart and getting back our first love for Jesus!!How wonderful!!

MOW,

Thanks for all of the updates and pictures. How blessed you and your son are to be a part of this.

I remember many years ago hearing a Brother, who was over there, talk about the hunger of the people of India for God. It is wonderful that God is using you and your son to feed that hunger!

Praying for all,
Sinatra
