Trip Update

Hello!

I just wanted to give everyone an update on our current plans to travel to India. :)

Originally, mom and I were hoping to go to India in May, but as March went by, and then April, we weren't any closer to leaving. I started wondering at that, because usually when God wants us to do something, everything just falls into place, and this time it was if we were trying to force everything to happen. June and July went by and we still weren't any closer to leaving, and now it’s August.

We have no intention of leaving a moment before the Lord wants us to leave, or has provided for our departure.  So, now we are joyfully waiting on the Lord and enjoying all of the adventures He has for us in this season. I have been grateful to the Lord for allowing us to be here this summer (instead of our plan to leave in May) because of some different (important) family events along with some other unforeseen occurrences. There have seemed to be more opportunities to share God with people here, also.

We have talked to Pastor Diwakar about going in January and he said that that would be a good time as it is cooler (40-50 degrees), and they always need the most help during the school year.

We don’t know why God postponed our trip, but we know we can rest in His timing since He is the One who sent Pastor Diwakar to us, and when it is time for us to go, He will make a way!

We would appreciate your continued prayer as we wait on the Lord for His plan, provision and timing! We also want to thank those of you who have contributed to our work in India and to let you know that all funds have been put aside to be used strictly to minister to the people of India.

In Christ, 
Sara

  1. Hey there Sara, I was wondering if God had opened the doors for you to go to India to work in the slums yet and how the experience was.It sounds like an amazing opportunity. I myself have been on many short-term mission trips and they have all been amazing blessings. =) Sincerely,
