After 54 hours of travel we have arrived! Praise the Lord for a safe trip. On the Dubai-to-Hyderabad leg, a young lady graciously gave Russ her business-class seat which astonished the flight attendants. God is good!
The SUV trip from Hyderabad to Tenali was grueling. The temperature is well over 100+ and the AC barely made a dent in the heat and humidity. Seven adults, one child and several backpacks inside; 10 suitcases piled on top. What a relief to arrive at last.
We were greeted by our Indian family and a group of the orphans, garlands duly draped on our weary necks, hugs and joy all around. Then off to sleep. Tomorrow the Bible School begins. Please pray that we reach the hearts of the children. Also pray for Albert and Russ, and the preaching that will be happening in villages and slums over the next several days. And that the electricity doesn't go out quite as often as it has been doing. We really need the fans functioning while we sleep...and the AC unit would be nice too.
Russ is home. We are where God wants us to be. Please keep us in your prayers. More details and photos later on Facebook and in our emails.
Karen May who is also with us has published a blog with some photos she has taken. If you would like to see her take on things visit www.karen-may.blogspot.com
