India happenings

Brother David went India a few weeks ago and was able to stay at the new orphanage ... it still has a ways to go, but it is livable.  Raja and his wife are thankful for the new building and home for their orphans!  I'm sure they are all much more comfortable there.  They hope to have more room built on to the top and are also hoping for electricity.  They have their own well, however they cannot use it because it requires an electric pump.  For now they are using a different well; the girls take care of getting water every day.

While there, David met with the pastors several times; it seems to have went very well.

I tried to make a video of the pictures, however it would not download here ... so, here are a few of the pictures David was able to take on his phone.
