We have walked on the land of India for 3 days now, and I am amazed at how comfortable we are here. We landed safely around midnight on Friday night/Saturday morning, and while we have been b
usy, we are getting breaks every now and then. The hotel is nice, and the food is spicy! Yeah!! We worshipped at Pastor's Samson's church on Sunday morning, which was an amazing time. They worship with such passion and abandon.
Sunday evening we went into a slum and did an evangelistic meeting outdoors.... which was an experience I will never forget. This was the first meeting for Pastor Samson in this area, and right next door is an area run by gangs. These people were not believers, for the most part. When Pastor Samson called for people to give their hearts to Jesus and accept Him as savior.. there was hesitation. Here, if you accept Christ, you are very likely to be kicked out of your home and disowned by your family. Yet even knowing that, over 30 people came forward to receive Christ, and many more followed to receive prayer.
It was an awesome time - I was invited to share my testimony to these wonderful women and men, most of whom have never been told that they are loved, valued, and can be heirs with Christ.
Today there was a pastor's conference of over 2500 people - and again I was invited to share my testimony at the beginning of Lloyd's teaching.
I am humbled to be used in such a powerful way, and God is taking my life and turning it for good! I have to go for now, shopping calls!!!! I will write more later on today, and post some pictures for you. God bless, and I ask that you continue to pray our list.... Love to all..... Bryan and Terri

Wow. It's so exciting to see God move, and I'm so proud of you for confronting that fear and making yourself available to be used. I hope I get to stand next to you in Heaven so I can see the faces of the people whose lives you've touched on this leg of The Journey. Love to Bryan - praying for you :) Mel
