On January 16th we landed in a country where only 1.6% of the people are evangelical Christian and only a mere 3% of the total population attends any sort of church.  This country is influenced by witch craft, idolatry, and atheism.  Most of the people lack the understanding of a personal relationship with Jesus.  It is a country in one of the most resistant mission fields and on the least evangelized continent.  Needless to say, our week in Portugal was very eye opening!

Today has been one of the best days on the trip for me thus far!  As I wrote about before, I have been wanting to go visit the family I lived with for 3 weeks in February of 2006.

We are now in Guatemala!  We arrived late Friday night in Guatemala City and spent the night in a small hostel.

So here is the scoop on Incredible India.  Sorry it has been so long but for safety reasons we couldn’t get on the website at all while in India. 

We arrived in India in early December.  The evening we got in we immediately headed into the heart of Delhi to stay at a “hotel” for the night.  The taxi driver dropped at the end of busy market street a ways down from our hotel...

We are leaving Hong Kong tomorrow and heading to Malaysia.  Let me fill you in on the past few days.

We are in Hong Kong!  After a 12 hour flight, we have safely arrived in Hong Kong, pretty tired and worn out.  For those of you who are curious we are now 14 hours ahead of Texas time; put that on a post it note to remind yourself.  Unfortunately on the flight there was no turkey, stuffing, or green bean cassorole like Kim and I had prayed for. 

The other day, I started thinking about how sad it would be to come all the way to South Africa and not see my great friends Lana and Jacques from the World Race.  Since they live about a 2 hour plane ride away, Kim had already told Lana and Jacques that I wouldn’t make it down there.  However, Kim and I devised a plan to surprise them.
