So India. I realized today I have yet to update my blog since returning in July.

It’s a tough one. You see…what’s happened there can’t be shared yet (besides the fact that it was record breaking heat and very limited power). We spent much time lying in our sweat, praying for the people and the country. My 4th team there...and I'd return again and again. I treasure the relationships.

India, where we were....is not a place where we wear our Adventures in Missions t-shirts or walk around swinging our Bibles. No. It’s not because we aren’t willing to put our lives on the line for the sake of the gospel…but instead, because we are not willing to put the lives of the people and children of the orphanage that has become family on the line.

Which brings me to this…

What are you saying “yes” to? How far will you go? Can you imagine....being a Christian where you were beaten, tortured, and or killed for refusing to convert to another religion!

Thank you for your continued prayers and support! Please keep our friends in India in your prayers. They have relocated and are adjusting.
