8 Days til India

There are only 8 more days until we leave for India! A couple days ago Dr. Suresh e-mailed Vanessa our itinerary, so now we know what we'll actually be doing. If you'd like to know what to pray for for each day, keep reading...

  • July 18-20 Fly fly fly
  • July 21 Visit Harvest India Orphanage and School, HIV/AIDS Awareness camp, Bible College, and Former Prostitutes Project. That evening, there will be an outreach meeting. I have yet to know what that is.
  • July 22 Visit construction site for a new school, and the prospective sites of future HIV/AIDS Hospices, then we're going to see some water wells get dedicated
  • July 23 More well dedications, then a visit to another HI orphanage
  • July 24 Visit one of HI's homes for the elderly. Then, another outreach meeting.
  • July 25 Visit a medical camp in the morning, and the nurse training center in the evening
  • July 26 Visit to Mercy Camp and Free Medical Center, and more wells dedicated
  • July 27 Sunday Church Service, and an outreach meeting in the evening.
  • July 28 Visit to another HI orphanage
  • July 29 Visit the Railway Children Home. 
  • July 30 Visit to Red-light Area ministry
  • July 31 Visit to Mercy Camp
  • August 1-3 Return to Chennai, see the city, fly back home
Please keep praying for the work being done by Harvest India, the people it is reaching, and those who it cannot. Pray for our team in our final week before our departure, and that we be prepared to build others up as our hearts break for them. Pray that we go with humility, compassion, and love.
