I discontinued my blog at the beginning of August until the end of the trip just to be extra careful about sensitive information for those we were to visit in India. But I have reactivated it! I'm starting to get all the pictures together and process the trip so that I can write and update about it. Yay! It was the most incredible experience of my life. I'm ridiculously grateful that I was actually in India, surrounded by the people and the culture. I respect them and their way of life so much, and it was an honor to be immersed in it. I wouldn't trade a second.
The first thing I have ready to show off is a video I took of the Prison Staff team who go into the many prisons in and around Mumbai. They work tirelessly, and I really mean that, to help those who truly are victims. Not in the way that Americans or Western Europeaners think they are victims. But those who are truly taken advantage of and have to tools to help themselves with no one around able or willing to help them. I think that is a state very few of us could ever actually understand. I look up to this team immensely. They are victors and over-comers and know the Joy of the Lord in a way that I will never forget. I'm changed just from the joy and honor of meeting them!
So enjoy this "movie." They work hard and their play is hard too. THE PLAY IS REALLY INSPIRING TO ME!
