Praveen gathered us for the Evangelists and their families to thank us for our work we accomplished during our stay and to pray for us and our families. What an honor!!







What a way to spend our last day at the mission. We wrapped gifts for the Evangelists(material for white shirt and pants) and staff(shirt & pants or saree).






The children treated us to a talent show. Lots of dancing!! Afterwards, we passed out the gifts.






We served over 400 staff families and orphans in gratitude for the work they do and for taking such good care of us during our stay. GSM is so lucky to have the good hearts of all these people.






Even though it was a day of rest for the staff, staff members still helped the hired cooks for today's meal.

Our little helper, Padma, enjoys a BIG helping of food under the careful eye of Henry's brother, Rathna. Padma took good care of us with serving of meals, helping with our clothes, getting the wash to the dobi, putting flowers in our hair, shopping, and most of all the henna decorating.

Jesus said, "If I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. For I have set you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you." -John 13:14-15 (NRSV)
