Just a quick post here to say we've arrived. It's noon on Saturday here in Delhi. Sue and I left our home in Brea at 7:30 on New Year's Eve morning, flew to San Francisco and caught our flight to Frankfurt. Best we can figure, we rang in the new year somewhere over Greenland---but we're not really sure. We had four hours on the ground in the Frankfurt airport, which was all we experienced of New Years Day. Then on to Delhi where we landed around 2:00 a.m. January 2. It was wonderful to see Arvind and Karisa's faces around 3:30 and finally crawl into bed at 4:00. We slept hard until 9:30.
Ok, major shout out to Karisa. Because their car is so small, Arvind and Karisa had to drive two cars to the airport to pick us up. Karisa's a pro! Through heavy traffic (yes, even in the middle of the night) pea soup fog, and right hand drive, she handled it like a pro! Arvind and Karisa are doing well, have a very comfortable home, and the conversation has already been fun and encouraging.
More later . . . but for now, praise God with us that we are safe, travels were unbelievably smooth, and we feel rested and ready to make the most of our time here.
So excited to see what God is going to do in Delhi! Walkers are praying for you and Sue daily.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you, Kimbers! How fitting that the two of you would ring in the new year on your way to love our dear people, Karisa and Arvind. Praying for our LORD to use (and bless) you in beautiful ways while you are away from us. -the Haugens.

ReplyDeleteTom and Sue,
ReplyDeleteThank you for being ambassadors for Christ and Grace. We are grateful you are caring for our dear Karisa and Arvind. We will be praying that your time will be a blessing to them, you 2 and the church of Jesus in North India. I can't think of 2 better saints for the job you are on over there. Press on,
