In Full Swing

The Servant Leadership Bible School concluded day 4 today. The days are rushing by with classes from 9-5 every day. The students are really enjoying the teaching. Tom and Pastor Sal are in the ZONE with teachings on the Prophets and Practical Leadership Training. Elena leads a study on the Cross of Christ. Bev is our time manager and extends hospitality to everyone.  School ends next Wednesday.

Frances & GK risk their lives to
evangelize in Orissa 

We have made many new friends and renewed old friendships with those attending the school. Philemon is here from the north along with Tashi and Paul Hangmi. This year they brought a new student named Tensin. Another pastor from Bangalore has suffered much persecution for his faith. He was preaching in Manipur and was captured by terrorists who stripped him naked and hung him in a tree for five hours. At another place, his head was beaten and split open because of his faith. P.B. Manohar is an award winning illusionist and child evangelist. He has entertained us all week with illusions that are used to tell children about Christ.

Pray for Paul

Paul Handmi from Manipur has suffered with poor health since he arrived here. We are concerned for him. He has been taken to the hospital several times for severe dehydration and fever. Paul has had many health concerns over the years. Please pray God would restore his health.

Dave and Kris Samuel left yesterday for Bangalore and will arrive home in the US on Saturday. In less then 2 weeks we also will say good-bye to our Indian friends and return home.
