Back tro India - Orissa 08

Plans are coming together for us to head back to India this November.  We are taking a group with us.  Originally the plan was to take a larger group to help celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Brethren in Christ Church in Orissa.  Unfortunately, the distress in this state made it so that these activities and celebrations were canceled.

We do have a nice group - seven in all - who are still making the trip to Orissa.  We will be flying into Delhi and after several days will head on to Orissa.  The people there are planning for some very nice opportunities for us to be involved in their lives and for us to be of mutual support to each other.

I will seek to give updates of our travels and trust you may join with us as we go through these posts.  

Blessings to all who read this blog.  Ken
