\"IMG-20150901-WA0000\"Our time in the Palampur area was filled with house visits, small gatherings, individual ministry and God surprises (a short break from the conferences). One morning we went to Bablu\u2019s\u00a0house, who I connected with last year. They had at least 30 people all gathered outside waiting for us to come. Many of them I had met last year so there were lots of hugs and smiles when we arrived. \u00a0We worshiped and I ministered. It was so good to see everyone again. They are all growing in the Lord and now with Ashish ministering here, there will soon be a church here. A godly woman has a small piece of land next to her house. She said she had a dream and wants to donate it to build a church. Ashish is very excited!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"IMG-20150901-WA0003\"We also went to Adarsh’s village. I found out that we were the first white Christians who had been there. We had a great time of worship and fellowship. About 25-30 people had gathered there. It was a joy to hold Adarsh\u2019s son, Prince Joshua, who many of you prayed for several months ago. He is doing well. We went to another village\"Dan where there was only one Christian family and had prayer. Once again, the first white Christians to ever be there. \u00a0There are many, many villages in the region. \u00a0None of them have a church and there are only a few Christians among tens of thousands of people.<\/em><\/p>\n
