Wednesday, July 12 - This morning at around 4am Marshall and Tim left for the airport to fly to Sikkim. The rest of the team woke up at the usual time, had breakfast, and did out devotionals this morning. We prayed for Rachel for continued health and for the day's program. Our team left for Knoble Academy at 8:15am and proceeded to spend time with the children singing and dancing.
Our VBS program today consisted of the lesson that "Jesus gives us direction!" We incorporated many bat crafts to match our Bible buddy, Radar. Our team was able to spend more time playing with the children as our program allowed for more room for interaction. Allison began to feel sick this afternoon. Her stomach felt uneasy and she rested for the next few hours. She is already beginning to recover and feel better, praise God!
Near the end of our VBS program, we heard news that Marshall and Tim's flight was emergency diverted to Calcutta with no news of the next available flight. Our team gathered and prayed for God's hand in the situation. We also prayed for the evening program, Allison, and Calida's preaching. Once we got onto the bus to come back to the hotel to rest, Kloe received a call from Tim saying that they would be boarding in the next 10min, praise the Lord!
This evening we met downstairs at 5pmto leave for our evening program. After waiting an hour, Pastor Joel and our translator arrived from being stuck in traffic. We drove for about an hour and a half, arriving at about 7:15pm at Sharon Baptist Church. Our program was directed by Calida who preached on Exodus 3 and the name of God. Joshua shared his testimony about how his life has been influenced by his 94 year old grandfather. At the end of the service Calida offered to pray for those who wanted to know God, to draw closer to Him, and to return to God. By the end of the invitation, about 30 people had their hands raised to be prayed for, HALLELUJAH!
At the end of the evening, we were given hot milk tea and curry filled puffs. We arrived back home at 10:30pm and had Indian fast food burritos for dinner. It's been an eventful day. 😊
