An Update from Luke

Today we wrapped up four days of ministering in Cheerala, 5 hours north by train.  This is Calvin's, the college warden's home town.  Calvin served as our guide and coordinator throughout.  We were able to minister to homeless tribal outcasts, hindu villagers, and local believers.  Most nights were spent walking village streets and stopping in homes to pray for healing or provision.  One afternoon we witnessed to a large group of youths playing cricket.  All were eager to hear about the Lord.  This morning we preached in two Lutheran churches and then Calvin's father's church. With the exception of Luke catching a pretty severe stomach bug it was a wonderful time.  The Lord really tested our faith and stretched our comfort zones.  Tomorrow it is back to Chennai for another week of teaching.
