I am pleased to share that we have celebrated our first engagement! It was a sweet time celebrating one of our oldest girls. She is incredible and we are so excited to see her and her soon to be husband go out and change the world. They are a beautiful couple. It is an exciting new stage for us to be celebrating engagements and planning weddings. What a blessing to see our children growing up into amazing young men and women!
We're excited to be spending part of our summer attempting to live out this verse again. Please pray for us! We will share some special stories upon our return.
There are so many beautiful places of worship in India, but they are trying to shut down all of our places of worship. They want all the gods to be worshipped, except for our God. They want religion, as long as it is not ours. The most beautiful religious places in India are where the most brokenness can be found. Pray for places to worship the one true God. Pray for freedom for believers. Pray for India.
Our staff does not just serve the many children they love, but they also serve as many in their community as they can. This is one of the neighborhoods in which they spend their free time. They run programs for the adults, the children, and the youth in this area. In this community we have churches and small groups that meet regularly. The people in these neighborhoods are beautiful, amazing, and very hard workers. They pray for one another and for us and are a great encouragement to me. It is a delight to share Jesus and His love with them. It is also a joy when others come alongside us and help us build new homes for our friends in this area. I have seen them put these homes to use hosting small groups, feeding people, and just keeping their doors open for anyone who walks by. Life in the body of Christ is beautiful no matter where you are, and we love these fellow believers.
