India

Greg went to India the day after Thanksgiving & was gone until December 8th. It was a very long, busy (Praise God) week & 1/2 for me. He went with our pastor, Phil, to minister to the couple below, Rod & Laura. He also preached at 3 pastor's conferences along with Phil & went to the orphanage Rod's dad operates. Mostly they went to encourage Rod & Laura. He had a great time & if you want to know more than I put on here, you'll just have to ask him!

These 2 boys lived with Rod & Laura (can't remember their names)

Orphanage

Greg said the kids loved to have their pictures taken. They'd always ask for just one more. You could never take a picture of just one child~they'd all flock together!

Greg still says he would love to adopt the little girl in the middle!

Isn't she adorable?!

Some Pictures from the Pastor's Conferences

Here they were honored with these flowers. Greg said it was really really hot there & the flowers had a powerful aroma so it was amazing they didn't pass out or something while they were preaching.

One conference, ladies & children were there when they weren't supposed to be, but it all worked out.They also had a baptism at this one. There was lots of algae in the water & Phil didn't know he was baptizing so he drove home for 3 hrs in wet stinky clothes.God moved so he said it was worth it!
