returning home

well, our trip has come to an end.  we have our bags packed and our taxis arriving at 4:30 this afternoon (indian time.)  while we wait, we are distributing some of our clothes and blankets to homeless families and having some prayer and worship to thank God for all he has done for us in this time.  he has been more than wonderful to us in our ministry, in our lodging and food, in our health and safety, in pretty much every way we could imagine.

a long day of travel awaits us, we fly from kolkata to delhi (3 hours) from delhi to amsterdam (8 hours) and from amsterdam to minneapolis (8 hours)  not to mention all the layover time.  (needless to say, we’ll be playing lots of dutch blitz and other card games.)  we will arrive sunday afternoon in minnesota.

thank you all so much for your support and your interest, your prayers and encouragement to us!  it has been fun to read comments and hear what you have to say on the other side of the world.  we will post again when we arrive safely in minnesota.

as for prayer requests, please pray for the following:

safe travel, lots of energy for the long travel, continued health (its difficult to travel if one gets sick…), and for our transition back to american life which can be rather difficult (the plane rides are a nice time to process things, so pray we would be able to do that!)
