After a 7 hour bus ride that seemed like more of a circus (Florescent green lights and loud Indian music; the picture does not do it justice…a true Indian experience) we made it to Mercy and Grace Orphanage.
Here at the orphanage, we are doing everything from teaching daily classes (art, music, English, drama, bible, etc), playing Kaberdee (picture follows…Indian Rugby), preaching, sharing testimonies and speaking life into those around us. I constantly remind myself that India is a place of only 2% Christian faith, so naturally Mercy and Grace is in the minority. When in a situation like that, you need all the encouragement you can get and we are blessed to be able to give it. They are able to look at our team as an example of what a Christian looks like. In the States, we have plenty of examples, but here, there is a very good chance that you are the only believer in the area. Talk about true faith and fully depending on God. Please pray that my team and I can continue to build into Mercy and Grace as brothers and sisters in Christ.
