Hello friends! I’m sure you’re ready for summer!! 😀
SO WHAT ARE YOU UP TO NOW?? Feels like yesterday that I was sweating in the heat of Hyderabad, India . . . but it was actually over a year ago, January 2014, when I was on the epic journey that was the World Race. That was when I fell in love. The country, culture & people of India captured my heart & I’ve been looking back ever since that one beautiful month. Now God is bringing me back again for two more months, May-June 2015, & I’m just over the moon (& sweating again lol)!
WHERE ARE YOU SERVING? I am working with the Covenant School of Worship (CSoW) in the city of Hyderabad. This school is a dynamic, powerhouse ministry of Bible teaching & Spirit-filled worship that is raising up a whole new generation of passionate preachers & revivalists in India! “To equip worshipers to BE disciples and MAKE disciples, who demonstrate the love of God to all,” is the school’s mission.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MAY? I am currently teaching music theory, keyboard & Bible classes, leading worship & serving as a “Big Sister” during the annual school for women only! These women are training to become worship leaders – they are so hungry to know God & worship Him with all that they have! My MAIN goal is to befriend & disciple them. God has given me a big heart for Indian women, as they are often overlooked & devalued in their culture. It is such an honor to show them their worth in the eyes of Jesus & empower them to lead others in worship of Him!
WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING IN JUNE? I will be serving as the Graphic Designer/Media Guru for the school! I will be participating in everything media-related, including graphic design & photography, while continuing to build relationships with Indian women & invest in their lives & futures. I’m seriously looking forward to wearing my artsy hat to promote & bring awareness to a powerful ministry of revival-bringers & Jesus-lovers!
THANK YOU!! Let me say that I am so thankful for the consistent & generous support that so many of you have shown through all of my ministry endeavors up to this point! “Blessed” does not begin to describe how I feel, having seen God provide through each & every one of you, not only financially, but also through prayer, blog comments & words of encouragement.
HOW CAN I HELP? Praise Jesus I am already FULLY FUNDED!!! 😀 But . . .
HOW CAN I PRAY? Please pray for the women I am ministering to, that they would know the life-changing reality of Jesus & also become more equipped to lead their local churches & nation in worship of the one true God! Also pray for the women staff, Madhu, Kristen & I! We need strength & wisdom to handle all of our various responsibilities on a daily basis, from girl drama to teaching classes to spiritual leadership. 🙂
Thank you again. Every one of you.
So much love.
Bethany
