Today is celebration Sunday. Its been three days since I have seen the Jubilee girls and when they came into the Chapel this morning, my heart melted! I was so happy to see them!!!! Today was the day that all the girls performed their dances, skits, and showed off their drawings and a few of the girls gave testimonies.
isaiah 61:1-6
At one time in all our lives we were brokenhearted, poor in spirit and in mourning- our lives were like ashes. Someone came and brought the good news to us. Jesus broke into the hardness of my heart and brought me to where I am today. God did not call us to live a comfortable life... it is not enough that God had saved me or you, there are people that are in the darkness and we need to reach out to them.. we need to submit to Jesus so that we can be used by God.
The celebration was amazing but it was sad to leave all the women and children.. they will always have a special part in my life.
The next day we flew back to Delhi and it was the last days i spent with Ascari and Brooke.

We were on our way to Musoorie. There we were going to lead a camp with a girls home from Delhi and with the Girls home from Musoorie. That city is so beautiful it is in the mountains and the view is truly breathtaking.
The theme of this week was about making our roots stronger in Christ.
God has made us each like trees. Many times we think the important thing is to have so many branches and fruit when in reality its our roots that are important... even though no one may see it, its what gives us life. When we are dry, our fruits and leaves begin to fall to the ground.
