On the second Saturday of each month, all Quiet Corner and Bible Vision staff across India stops to pray and fast for the nation. We are so humbled by the dedication to prayer that takes the priority over everything that is done here. At 10 AM, Sal, Elena and Bev headed over to the Masanangudi Bible Church. Elena spoke to a small group of women who were gathered there. Three of them were Hindu ladies who had never been to a Bible Study. All three asked for prayer after the study. Pastor Wasu took their names and plans to follow up with them.
Later in the day we went to a watering hole where trained elephants are given baths. It was amazing to watch these giant creatures lay down in the river and let their handlers scrub them. From there they are taken to a feeding pen where they are hand fed 10 pound balls of meat and grain. Dessert was a couple of coconuts, shell and all. Sprinkled along the same river where women beating clothes on rocks to get them clean, children playing and wild boar looking for anything to eat.
The day ended in a flurry of excitement. First, Kish's dropped their room key through an open window after the door was locked. So the Kish's were locked out and QC did not have a master key. Through the genius of the team, we formed a fishing hook from a clothes hangar and finally were able to hook the key. Then Elena went to the library to write this blog. Thanks to Tom's sharp eye, he quickly alerted her to move away from the computer. A VERY large spider was hanging out over her head. . . the kind with hair on its legs!! Sal and Tom found some mops with long handles and went to war. They battled with the spider and finally were able to claim victory. To insure our defeated foe did not have any friends hiding, we sprayed the room with insect repellent. As of this writing it appears all is clear.
Tomorrow begins the End Times conference in Ooty. We will travel there today and set up the conference hall with our equipment. Pray for us to have good health and safety. Ooty is at about 7000 feet in elevation. We must adjust to the climate change and pressure. Pray for all the pastors who will be attending.
