Home Safe & Sound
Hello All,
I wanted to write a quick update to let everyone know that our team is home safe and sound. On Friday we had the opportunity to go to Delhi and tour the city. The city has more infrastructure than Chennai and there seems to be more afluent areas, but there were still a vast amount of slums as well as people who beg for money and food on the streets daily. Poverty is very prevalent in Delhi as well as Chennai.
We flew to Dubai on Friday night and had a tour of the city on Saturday. All of the new construction is quite remarkable. We were able to see the tallest building in the world as well as the newly built "Palm Islands."
We had a wonderful debrief on Saturday afternoon and were able to discuss our action items going forward in terms of how we will continue to support CMCT as well as raise awareness and money for this amazing ministry.
Our flight home was a long one and a few of the team members got sick. Everyone is home and I'm sure jetlagged, but we can't wait to share our experiences with all of you.
Thank you for your continued support, prayers and encouragement.

I want to thank you for keeping us in touch with you. It has been so helpful in seeing the blogs to "visualize" my prayers for you. What a perfect group of women God assembled to be His hands on the ground. You'll have wonderful stories of God's blessings to you as you were blessing the women and children. I look forward to hearing those stories.
