From Carly Meyer

Another exciting day in India! It's been just wonderful getting to know the pastors over here. They are all so energetic for the spreading of the Word! I only hope that we can all bring this energy back home, where the fields are white as well.

We travelled today to the Chittoor district, where Jackie, Joey, and I sat in on Pastor Ohlmann's lesson for the first time. There were about 30 pastors crammed into a pretty small space. But that didn't stop them from diligent study in the Word! It definitely sets an example for us to follow: the message we come to learn is too important to be turned down simply because the building where it's being shared isn't "comfortable" enough~ or any reason for that matter!

We also travelled to a village called Kottravedu (sp?) to teach the children. It was exciting to see how many children filled that building just to hear about their Savior, Jesus! Praise the Lord for moving their hearts to do so! Keep us all in your prayers as we continue to share the Gospel!

Carly,

You and your whole group is in my prayers. It's so great reading everyone's posts and reliving some moments. =) I pray that God uses your words, actions smiles, and prayers to touch the lives of those in Inda, but I also pray that He uses this trip to strengthen your faith and bring you even closer to Him!
