We're very glad to announce our third ministry trip India!. The first centered in the south, the second in central India, and this is planned for north India, Uttar Pradesh state. The dates are September 13-27, 2008 (airline factors may result in changes of a day or so). Christians are 1.4% of the state's population, according to the World Christian Database, and there has been recent persecution. We will not go to see ministry, but go to serve, taking a day out for refreshment toward the end of our trip . The fee is $3500. Team unity is very important to us, and essential on the mission field. We get to know and pray for one another prior to the trip, and are intentional about fostering strong personal and intercultural relationships. Many Team participants return with RMNi--some as many as 8-10 times. We are partnering with a well-established and highly regarded Indian ministry (although not the same ministry partner of the previous two trips). Please contact us for further details. Your application begins the process. God provided wonderful opportunities in central India in 2005. For a photo journey of that trip, go here. Extensive country information can be found in The World Factbook. National Geographic magazine published an article by Tom, O'Neill, "Untouchable," an excerpt of which can be accessed here. Seven video clips are also at that location. To appreciate India's complex diversity, read "India Surprises," an illuminating article by Erich Bridges.
