Lake Country Quartet

What a great surprise it was to meet Kris and Dave Samuel on the road as we traveled to church on Sunday morning. We are thankful for the safe trip and that they are now here with us. Church was a beautiful balance of Tamil and English praise. Randy and Skyler gave testimonies while the newly formed Lake Country Quartet led in some worship songs. Sal spoke from 1 Thessalonians on the marks of a good church.

Couples enjoy Minute to Win It Games

We returned to Quiet Corner and began preparing for the Hindu outreach Sunday evening. Everyone helped get Mercy Hall ready. Before we knew it, it was time to dress up and welcome the guests. After the welcome and prayer, Mike and Jody conducted an hilarious hour of minute to win it style games for the Hindu couples. Teams competed against each other and the hall was filled with cheering and laughter. Sal and Elena shared a message regarding the importance of the Bible. Many seemed very attentive and our prayer is that a seed has been planted in the hearts of those who came. The evening ended with a great meal served to everyone.

Scenic stop on the way to Ooty

Today (Monday) was set aside for rest and recovery. We left early for Ooty and took an hour long, scenic ride on a train. We ate lunch at a Chinese Restaurant and then took auto rickshaws to a spice shop. We concluded our outing with a short stop at a tea factory before returning to Quiet Corner.

It was a long day but a good one and a needed break from the hectic pace of the medical/good news outreach. Tomorrow we pick it up the pace again with two more days of the outreach.
