My posts have gotten out of order, but I am in Goa and experiencing a great time with the people here. I have already spoken about Sunday. I also spent Monday and Tuesday in Goa and then will start my homeward journey on Wednesday.
Goa is an interesting place. It almost seems to be a culture based on the tourist industry. People live here and work here for six months of the year and then go back to their places of origin across India and across the world for the other six months. As I am here it is getting toward the end of the tourist season. The hot months will soon begin and then the monsoon will follow.
I have spent my time with the people who are working here in Goa from North America. It has been good to spend time with people individually and in groups around shared meals. It has also been a delight to be in several homes to share meals. Each setting gives opportunity to listen and to talk about things that are particularly on the mind of the people working here.
This morning (Tuesday) I am leading a session with the team. Dan has asked me to work with the group as they think about their individual gifting and the task before them. I pray it will be a good time of interaction and will continue to encourage each team member in the calling to ministry that God has given them in this place.
Blessings to each of you who have been reading my posts. Thank-you for your prayers! The Lord has answered and is at work in all that is happening through these days.
