In transit

I know it's been a few days... sorry.  This is the first time in several days I've even had an internet connection.  So you get two posts today!  Be sure to check below for a post I wrote a few days ago but was only able to upload now.

Back in Delhi today.  After a long overnight train and another plane flight, I'm back for less than 20 hours before I take off again (at 4:50 tomorrow morning... ughhhh).  The last hospital visit was really nice- While the hospital was very small (1 doctor, 3 nurses), I was able to listen in on some fascinating conversations with the doctor.  It was amazing to talk with her, because it was clear she had an incredible trust in God's faithfulness.  She had some amazing stories about how the hospital had been on the verge of closing multiple times, and yet it is still open.  She has such a singular focus on God, it was pretty awesome/encouraging/strengthening to talk with her. 

Well, I need to go get ready to travel some more tomorrow.  I've put some pictures below!

At G.M. Priya Hospital there was a large school
The schoolchildren assembled outside of their building


The schoolchildren welcomed us, writing about 30 cards.  I knew they like to be around foreigners, but this was completely unexpected!

Children happy to meet Dr. Howard Searle, the doctor I'm traveling with for part of my trip.  He was one of the founders of the whole hospital organization.
