For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:6
Hey! :)
So this summer I'm traveling to Singapore, India & Nepal. Although you won't physically be able to journey alongside me, I hope this "blog" will keep us connected. Nine fellow Concordia University Irvine students and two professors will be accompanying me on my two month summer adventure. Here's a brief look at what we'll be doing...
May 31st Depart LAX
June 2nd-4th Singapore
June 5th-17th Darjeeling, India [English teaching at the Darjeeling Hills Bible School]
June 18th-30th Kathmandu, Nepal [English teaching at schools in local villages]
July 1st-2nd Pokara, Nepal [Retreat in the Himalayas]
July 3rd-15th Varanasi, India [Computer teaching through Youth With A Mission]
July 16th-31st Calcutta, India [Hospice care at Mother Teresa's Home for the Dying]
August 1st Arrive LAX
I'm so excited!
God works so faithfully through prayer. Can you please pray with us this summer? Each morning Hindus wake and pray, "Tamaso me Jyotirgamaya." [Lead me from darkness into light.] Let us make this our prayer— that they, too, would share in the joy of the salvation offered by “True Light, which enlightens everyone” [John 1:9]. Pray also that they will worship the Creator instead of creation, that the surrounding Christian community will experience revival and be emboldened to share their redemptive faith and that the life-giving Word of God and the transforming truth of the Gospel will be easily available. In addition, pray that God will prepare the hearts of our team as well as the hearts of all those who we will be in contact with this summer for His will to be done in our lives.
Thanks so much for following! I look forward to writing you again soon!
