The worst part of the job

Okay guys i will update soon about what's been going on here but for tonight i need to put a important and urgent prayer request up here. Okay well many of you know that i came here on faith, which meant that i didn't have all the money i needed to be here but i came anyways. The people here have been amazing and they have helped me out so much and cut a lot of costs, but there have been a lot of expenses this month and they really need money. This means that i need money so that i can give them some, so please be praying about donating or about talking to someone who might be interested in helping me out. Thank you so much for your prayers, i know God is faithful and he will provide.

Leper Colony!!

Hey!!!

I'm sorry for not posting in a week but life has gotten crazy in the last week!!! The AIM (Adventures in Missions) team got here on Friday and since then i have been spending a lot of time with the participants and the leaders, just hanging out, going over rules, helping them adjust, etc. It's been great to just have new people here that i can meet and just talk to, i have loved the time i have spent with them. 

Now for the even more exciting news i finally visited my first leper colony!!! It was crazy because i was picturing it to be a slum but with lepers, this isn't what it's like at all. They have very small houses but they are nice, clean and some even have TVs. The one i was at is not open to evangelizing but the people are still very welcoming, they LOVE pictures and they are obsessed with my old leader Caleb from my swazi trip. The first thing they did when they found out i knew him was go and get all their pictures of him to show us. It was really cute. All in all it was a fabulous day.

Some prayer requests would be the team isn't allowed out of their house very much for safety  reasons so they are all getting cabin fever, so if you could just pray that God does something with their hearts to help them understand why this rule is in place. 

Pray for the leaders they must have cabin fever as well plus they have to deal with everyone else, so just that God would sustain them and use them in whatever way he wants. 

These are my two big prayer requests at the moment. I will try to post again soon, and i hope everyone is having a fabulous June!!!

Church at Asha

On Sundays we go to Asha House (orphanage) it's great we sit in this little room with all the kids sitting up front and the adults in the back. We sing songs in both English and Hindi, so there is a little something for everyone, after worship they do this thing were anyone can get up and praise God for something that happened that week, then they read a psalm and talk about what it says. After this is communion and then the message, there is more that happens in the service also but it's just so full and much of it is done in Hindi, but it's amazing I wish that church were done more like this at home. It's full of prayer and praise and wisdom, it's just so simple and pure I love going to church on Sunday's.

SO this last Sunday was one of the best Sunday's of my life and I'll tell you why. There is this little girl at Asha her name is Tabitha and she is 13 months or so, she's a little trouble maker and incredibly adorable. During church you can find her constantly getting in trouble by banging on the drum/guitar, climbing on various people, just being cute. Anyways this last Sunday they were taking the offering which was done by another little boy who isn't much bigger then she is and Tabitha decided she wanted the cup and he wouldn't give it to her so she just sort of tackled him and tried to wrestle the cup from his hands. The little boy looked so shocked, i don't think he knew what to do it was adorable, of course because all the adults couldn't do anything to help because we were trying so hard not to laugh. It was just one of those memories that i think i will always look back at and giggle.

Since I'm talking about Asha i will mention that sixty1 is raising money for the orphanage but even more importantly is that about 10 kids don't have their vaccinations. These vaccinations are important because they protect them from an array of different medical problems like, Hepatitis, Polio, Chicken Pox, etc. So if you would like to give to this please send me an email and i can send you more information on how you can help. Just in case you don't have my email it's camp_princess@hotmail.com. Thank you and please be praying that the kids stay healthy and that the money will come in quickly so we can get them vaccinated. 

Thank you all!!!
