Today we got to participate in a youth meeting . Today is a holiday so the youth of a local church here met together and we were invited to join them. We were so blessed by the enthusiasm of the youth and everything that was shared was just so...refreshing and really relevant for me personally. I felt like God was talking directly to me through all that was shared...it was really good!
The girls just loved Gideon and he loved them. We played games and laughed a lot...it was so fun. I am tired tonight so my thoughts aren't fully there but it was a huge blessing to spend the day with Sunil and the youth.
Gideon slept through the night FINALLY! He woke up at 1am and played for about an hour so i was geared up for him not to go back to sleep but then i just started praying and asking that he would just go to sleep and sleep all night and after an hour Gideon konked out!! He slept until 7am so it was SO nice!
After the youth meeting we went to an awesome coffee house (with real espresso!) and met another couple who are involved with ywam here. Shine is Indian and his wife is american, we really enjoyed spending time with them. They took us to a place with american food products and we ate yummy sandwhiches (mine was chicken with sun dreid tomato's) They invited us to their church so we can meet more families and get more connections.
This sunday we go to Sylvia's church, next sunday Shine's church and the last sunday Sunil's church, lol so we will get to have a different experience each week.
I LOVE India! I am enjoying my time here so much. I love the people and all the long talks we have, I love how everything is so different and a little trying so I find myself praying almost every few minutes, going to my bible and writing down my thoughts more than i have since Gideon has been born. Leaning on God and just being so open to Him. He had to knock down every plan I have made on my own so that my mind could be completly open to what HE wants to say...I am listening and excited for what he has for us. I love that the Indian people love kids so much sometimes they just walk up and take Gideon for a while and then bring him back...strangers, lol. I have seen a guy riding an elephant, a kid on a camel, a really wierd HUGE blue bug and a lizard in someones yard. I have tried yummy food and pretty wierd food and I have gone without my own clothing for three days now! Our adventure is proving to be full and good and strangly refreshing.
Like I said, it is 11:30pm right now and i am tired so i do not know if i am making sense, organizing me sentances well or spelling things correctly but I love you all!! And I hope your enjoying hearing about our fun
Love, The Mckay's
