I thought I’d share some of my favourite pictures from my month in India. I’ll be sharing my favourite 11 pictures each month so you can see a bit of what I’m doing in each country. Hope you enjoy!

Everywhere we go kids find us. This group found us while we were dropping off a group for ministry for the day. The group got to work with these beauties and play with them all day long.

I met this gentleman when my squad was working on building pillars for a new church. He was watching the work, and I was watching since I couldn’t touch the buckets (allergies). It gave me a chance to talk to some locals, play with some kids, and take some pictures though. 

My team stumbled upon this deteriorating bridge on our way home from ministry, so of course we decided to cross it. Gotta say, it shakes as much as you’d expect it to.

I met this cutie at women’s day. He spent the day following me around and getting me to chase him. Eventually he let me take some pictures of him. That smile pretty much captures the joy that he was.

When we walked into town we would see this man carving into a bible. He told me he was carving out a bible. He was there every day that we passed working on that carving until the day we left.

 

My squad spent the last night in India worshipping around a bonfire. I’m not sure how late we stayed up, but this was my favorite night. 

This is one of the many women I met at a woman’s day, where we played games and ate with a community of woman and their children. 

Our team went to a small village called Ting Chom, by the mountains of Manipur, India to play with the children for the day. They were a delight! We got to teach them about Jonah, teach them kickball, and learn some balloon games from them.

This beauty was at the gate everyday with a smile and a hi. Eventually she warmed up to me enough to take a picture. 

When you need clean clothes in Manipur, India you get to washing! 

This is my squad mate Dylan, waiting in the construction line for the church that our squad helped build.
