A VERY BRIEF summary of our India mission Trip

Can’t tell u all. We’re saving the best for our India Mission Report Night.But God was really faithful throughout the trip. We had the opportunity to do ministry at Powerhouse Chennai church on 3 separate occasions. Then we went to visit the tsunami relief centre and orphanage for girls in the outskirts of Chennai. Also ministered to young women at a local Women’s Hostel in Chennai. A really touching visit was one to the AIDS hospice for women and children. We were a bit apprehensive. Not knowing what to expect. Whether the women and children were very sick, dying etc. The women and children we met were in good health. We found out that the hospice will transfer the really ill ones to the hospital. Even so, you can see visible signs of the side effects of the HIV drugs they were taking – eye, skin problems etc. Yet there was joy in the children. Amazing.

Ministry in Raichur, Kallur village were different. Journey there in the train was an out of the world experience itself. Apart from Pastor Jerry, Huan and Abot, our team were the only other foreigners they have met. The young people were really encourage to see foreigners of their age. Ministry there was entirely different. We learn about the power of prayer – really had spiritual warfare in Raichur. The girls prayed & worship for a long period that night. And won the battle. You must come and hear them share. Many testimonies on God answering prayers nearly instantly when we were in India. The generosity of the Indian people is really overwhelming. The way Ps Utham, the other pastors, his own son (Kushi) served us is a real testimony of what being a servant is. If we think that we’re serving in Malaysia, wait till you see how Indians really `serve’. Ps Utham gave up his master bed for us to sleep in his house. He and his family slept on the house roof open air on mats that night. Many many amazing stories…..you all must come for the India Mission Full reporting nite!!
