June 7th

Today we went to two villages. These were projects between Neverthirst and the Lutheran church in India. We went to and Indian school run by the church that morning. If there ever was a case where I would want to adopt, it would be from this place. There were several orphans at this facility. We got to participate in their VBS for a few minutes and they made us feel very welcomed. Then it was off to the villages for teaching and training. Just like Monday, both villages were welcoming but at the 2nd village we had time for a little Q&A. We got questions like "What do you like to eat?" and "What soap do you use to make you so white?" But then a man stood up and said that it was a good teaching but they are sick and what could we do to help. Later I was able to pray for a widow. She had two sons working in the city who sent money but still they had very little. I also saw a man who was living in a lean-to attached to someone else's house. He and his wife spoke about not having anything to eat. I didn't know what to say. I have been very convicted that my time on the word is no where near where it needs to be. I ask God for forgiveness and grace to help me want time in the word.
