India Day 3 & 4

Haven't had time to update as everyone's been working so hard.  We now have a dental group at our school servicing the 500 children, medical/dental team going out to the villages, and a vision (glasses) team going on their own (Micah age 12 and Sydney age 11 have been able to run the whole vision on their own fitting glasses for the villagers!) and finally two teams going out to the numerous baptisms (we had 20 on Tuesday and another 20 yesterday).  On top of all that, imagine doing a VBS program for 350 children with 4 days notice! However, seeing all 350 children singing their hearts out brought tears to our eyes and made it all worth while.  Even as our meeting attendance has grown each night our meetings haven't been without it's challenges and we ask for additional prayer as we were told yesterday that a group of thugs threatened to kill the pastor and beat up the team if we didn't stop doing the meetings (there's an election going on and one of the candidates is anti-Christian). We consulted the village elders and the villagers were adamant that we continue and said they would rally and "defend" us if that happened. I went last night to our meeting that received the threat and nothing happened but it was touching to know how much the villager were willing to stand up for us to continue the meetings.
