Back in India!

Hey guys I made it home safe and sound. Sorry that it took long to write to you all. I was under severe jet lag and not to forget the culture shock. But it has been a great joy to see my parents and my younger sister after all these years. My mom couldn't stop crying for 2 whole days. Everytime she would say a sentence tears would well in her eyes. My parents and I have had some interesting conversations about God and religion. I can see the subtle yet strong deception that is blinding their eyes. It sometimes gets overwhelming for me to be staying under the same roof, especially without any Christian fellowship. But I continue to pray for their salvation. I pray in tongues a lot more now. I guess I need it huh!
Joe is doing good. I miss him terribly. I have been talking to my dad about him a little. He didn't say much but seems willing to listen. Joe is coming down with his brother & uncle to officially ask for my hand on January 8th.  I am really praying that my parents would approve of him and bless us! It's only after that we can decide on our wedding date.
Anyways, I will write more soon and keep you all posted on furthur developments. Please keep me in your prayers.

With lots of love,

Gayathri
