Okay so India is amazing! We have been here for just over a week and I am in love with the place. Our team of 19 split up into groups of about 4 or 5 and was doing different ministry. We are working with a school for street kids, in the train station with street kids, in a day care with street kids and a muslim ministry. I and 4 other girls were working in the day care. We go to the day care in the morning and help out. It really consist of helping the kids bathe and playing with them. They are some of the most amazing kids I have ever met in my life. Than in the afternoon we go to the street were these kids live and we play with them. It was really a shock to go to the street because it was a reality that these kids really don't have a house to go home to. They love us and can not let go! It is really amazing because even though these kids are dirty and most of them have lice, I don't care and sharing God's love with them is really my only priority! I am forever changed by them. This ministry is run by a lady named Loche. She loves these kids so much and you can really tell that they are her kids even if not by birth. I have a lot to learn from her if I ever want to work with kids long term.
So on Tuesday evening (which is early morning for all of you) we are leaving for Chennai. It will be a 30 train ride. And not to sure if we have air conditioning. But it is a sleeper bus so we will have "beds" to sleep in. It really is a testimony to God that we got tickets at all, becuase there is a lot of festivals going on in India right now and they usually do not sell tickets within 1 month of the travelling date! So here we are going to Chennai!!
Have I told you that I love India!! Well I do!
Peace and God Bless!
