Intention and Gratitude

“Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things break. And all things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world waits in darkness for the light that is you.” ― L.R. Knost

Those words seem to best capture our days here 
as we are trying to soak all of this up with much intention and gratitude... 
best Indian breakfast (Paper Dosa) 

Adventures in crossing the road here.... We're certainly not in Kansas anymore!

Here is a post I wrote on my first trip to India back in 2012 that talks about the Rules of the Road here:  


at the site where the new sewing center and meeting space for the kids 
will be once we have raised funds to build there 


We are loving our time with Dani here!! 


treats of coconut water when we visited a school and helped serve lunch there 





With Devera Bapanamma (one of the girls our family sponsors) 

with Samson and his father (Samson has been in the program since 2010 and has done so well!) 

   
such a warm welcome from the Thota family  




with Sheiley sponsored by our dear friends (the Murrays) 




speaking at bible study last night 

visiting some of the children in our program last night in their homes 



and last but not least-- a selfie from my run the other morning-- 
Certainly not what I see on my normal route around Green Lake! 

Thank you all for your continued support and prayers 
for all the sights and sounds and colors and beauty we are experiencing this week!
