Yesterday we took the train to the slums and were able to attending a church service. The worship was beautiful... afterwards we prayed with the congregation and went to a home (in the slums) where we all sat taking up the whole room/home and served a wonderful meal! However... earlier that day i was not feeling the greatest and when we reached the train station it did not settle down... i was feeling miserable .. we had to get a cab to bring us back but praise God this afternoon i am feeling better, hopefully i will be able to eat something for dinner tonight!

Yesterday we also had Monica a lady trying to leave prostitution come and wash our clothes, we all paid her a generous amount when she wanted nothing.. this was able to pay her rent that she was desperate for.. she has been very close to suicide lately as her landlord said he would rape her if she did not get her money in... and all she wanted was to leave that life.. she feels trapped. When we handed her the money the joy was written all over her face.. she speaks hindi so we could not understand in words.. but she walked around giving us all hugs and her eyes spoke her gratitude... what a blessing that we could help her and share Gods love in such a simple yet huge way in her life! Praise God!

Love you all!
