Greetings brothers and sisters in the matchless name of Jesus,
First of all forgive me for the mis-spelling as I don't have time to correct. Thanks for bearing with me.
Well on to the final chapter of this journey which God has so abundantly blessed.

We headed back home about 5:00 p.m.. This ride proved to be a ride from h e double tooth picks. We came very close to a head on collision with a huge bus. Traveling at night especially down the mountain is not very smart. By the grace of God we arrived home, only to realize we left our keys in Shillong. Well, the landlord was able to get us in the first locked door and by the grace of God one of our other doors was left unlocked (because Joey unlocked it when playing a game and never locked it again). I think that scripture that says "all things work out for the good of those who love God" comes to mind in this. We rested well that night.

A needed day of rest, the intense heat, spiritual labor is being felt. I did get to the internet, shopping and was able to take a much needed nap. The kids hung out and Julie took it easy as well. We are homesick, but having an enjoyable time together just being able at the end of the day to visit and share. In the evening Julie taught her last Bible study on Ruth. It was very well attended and she said the ladies said when they read Ruth from now on they will be reminded of her. What a compliment.

Today, all of us along with Thangnesian went to Cotton College for an outreach. We distributed many tracts and other than that it was pretty uneventful. Oh well you have those days like that. From there we went to a Bible store and purchased more Assame Bible's so Thangnesian has a good supply when we leave.
From there it was the last trip to Pizza Hut, we chowed big time and enjoyed the air conditioning. After that we went shopping and purchased toys and some clothes for the El Shaddia Children's home. What precious children. Our children have grown so close to them and we as well along with those who oversee this ministry.

Last official outreach was just completed. We targeted a market area with many people and some resistance from staunch Hindu's. I need get to share Christ with two young men who were very open and gave them follow number to call. They just talking to me naturally drew a small crowd and I continued to preach the Gospel. A fitting end to a great month of ministry. Tomorrow, I prepare for a Pastor's conference and Julie for her last purity meeting and Allie for children ministry. As the trip winds down we continue to pray to stay faithful and focused. The Lord willing we will see you soon.
