India 1 Team: Day 4
This morning we had the incredible opportunity to visit a slum school that is run by a couple from Bible Bhavan Christian Fellowship nearby. It was amazing for us as Americans, to be involved in a ministry run by a Mexican man, married to a French woman, with a helper from New Zealand, all working together in India to teach these sweet children about Christ through education. While there was an obvious language barrier, it was such a blessing to be able to interact with the kids on a basic level. Our time there involved singing a few songs with them in Hindi, teaching them the children's song "My God is So Big" (which they caught on to very quickly!), sharing a personal salvation story with them, and helping them color. It was such a blessing to be able to see this ministry and be involved in it in a very small way!
During the afternoon we went scavenging through the local market. We were able to really interact with the locals here and, gain a better grasp of the culture. The whole experience was a great reminder to us that we have absolutely no control of what happens here, but thankfully, we know God does and He is far more trustworthy than any of us!
Thank you so much for your prayers, they have been evidenced in almost everything we have done and we can see the Lord's hand guiding the direction of our time here. We ask that you would pray for us specifically tomorrow as we go out and witness on a Delhi University campus. Please pray for courage and wisdom, especially as we seek to follow the Spirits' guidance for us and His divine appointments, especially those we will engage tomorrow.
"Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to Your name give glory, for the sake of Your steadfast love and Your faithfulness! Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Our God is in the heavens; He does all that He pleases." (Psalm 115:1-3)
