In 1997 we had the privilege of spending some time in India with a group from our church. It was life-changing for me and I have never been the same since.It was so important that hardly a day goes by without praying for those we met in that far-away land. I still correspond with our host and hostess and often I am transported in thought to Shanta's lovely kitchen, comfortable living room and sumptuous dining area. I loved it so; I love them so! I can still hear the early morning call to prayer from the local mosque and envision the alabaster Hindu temple on the hillside. I can see in my mind's eye the colorful sari-clad women and sober-faced men seated on the floor of the Andhra Bible Chapel as we worshipped God together.
In spite of my physical challenges, if given the opportunity, I would return to India and the gracious home of our friends, Bose and Shanta, in a second. And it would be wonderful!
