winding down

They have arrived in Andhra Pradesh. As suspected, it's a whole new world, even compared to Kerala.

They arrived at their hotel around 1am the first night. Definitely a stark contrast from the last hotel they stayed in. They were told not to leave their rooms and, surprise, no internet. {Mitch called this morning from John Samuel's cell phone.} Because the hotel is so bad, they will finish there stay in a nice home of a man John Samuel knows, one with enough room to house the three of them.

The place where they ministered reminds Mitch of Beaver Crossing, only there are 25,000 people living there. He says there are people EVERYWHERE!

The driving is even more insane than in Kerala so he asks that you continue to pray for safety. And of course, continue to pray for these nightly meetings they are having. The people of India need to see God's power!

I will ask that you continue to pray for all us gals on the homefront as well. {Don't forget MaryAnn, Ron's wife} I can tell my girls' emotions are running thin. They don't cry for daddy but the stress they've been under with only mom around is started to show. We cross off the day each night and are very excited that, though our guys are being used for Jesus' glory, they are heading home in just a few days!

Thanks so much! Blessings to you all!
