We were sent to India to
deliver
love hope joy
truth power
freedom
and we will do whatever it takes to share God’s
message!
… even if it means riding an oxcart across a river
(of water
buffaloes, swimmers, bathers, and laundresses)
and through the
fields and palm forests
to reach villages …
That was a new experience
for me!
I felt like we could have been riding alongside St. Thomas
when
he brought the gospel here two thousand years ago.
We were
honored in the village with flower
garlands,
foot-washing
(and our feet were muddy!),
and beautiful times of prayer and worship!
Jesus said,
“Come to me,
all you who
are weary and burdened,
and I will give you
rest.
Take my yoke upon
you and learn from me,
for I
am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your
souls.
For my yoke is easy and my
burden is light.”
(Matthew 11:28-30)
