I sometimes take for granted the wonderful inventions of computers and email and how easy it is to keep in touch with family back home. The other day we were able to talk to our friends back in India through Skype. What a wonderful thing to be able to talk and see friends and family! I remember when I was in High School someone sharing the idea about being able to talk and see the person you were talking to on the other end, but it just seemed like something from a movie and that it would never come to pass.....and now, here we are.
Anup and Saroja, our dear friends in India, are the ones who have been caring for Kelden, Pema and Dawa. They all went over to another friends house in India the other day and we were able to see them and talk with each other. It was such a joy! I can't imagine what it must have been like on their end. Especially for the boys coming from a village where they are just recently getting some solar lights in their houses. Now they are talking to their friends in a foreign country and getting to see them on the computer.
They are all doing well. Life there in Kalimpong is not easy at this time of the year due to the monsoon, and they have been having lots of strikes where the whole town shuts down for days at a time and you are not even allowed to drive anywhere in your car. Ugh....although I don't miss that at all, we do miss our friends, and had a great time chatting and catching up with them. The boys are all doing well and continuing in their studies. As they come to mind, please continue to pray for them and their families, that they would be set free by the Truth!
