Alive and Rockin in India
Gosh what can I even say!! After two days of really long layovers and really long plane rides I am here and alive in Lonavala, India at the Ywam base eating more curry and drinking more chai than you can even imagine and I am loving it. Suprisingly no jet lag for this guy so thanks God.
We started training Monday morning and it is going really well so far. It is a lot of work but it is going to be so worth it getting equipped in what I want to do with teaching now and in the future. We have 9 students two American, me and my friend Sam and the rest are all Indian, recent graduates of the School of Biblical Studies that took place here at the base. And by recent I mean they just finished last week. It is a pretty crazy turn around for all of us but we are all loving it. I am not sure about all of my outreach details yet but I will let you all know as soon as we figure it out. So yeah that's really it for now if you have any questions about anything please e-mail me at chadsmyhero@yahoo.com....
Prayer Requests: That I will rely on God's strength and not try to do this by myself because if I do that this whole thing will be pointless
Pray that the Holy Spirit will enpower me in every aspect from training to going out and teaching
Strength and wisdom to handle the responsibility of teaching God's word
That God will prepare the hearts of those who we are going to be teaching
That God will completely transform me from the inside out during this time
I want to see radical things happen in me and the people we come in contact with during this time
Thank you so much for having my back in prayer it means so much to me...if you need prayer for anything please let me know I would love to have your back also!! Seriously anything... I want to be a part of your life just as much as you are a part of mine!!!
P.S. I am very close to being fluent in Hindi so here is your Hindi lesson for the day
Chinni De Do = Give me some sugar : In the literal sense of the word sugar as in for coffee or tea. Not the possible American meaning for the phrase!
Ap Ka Nam Khia Hey = What is your name
Mira Nam Justin Hey = my name is Justin
Choop = Shut up: Very offensive, only say it to your American friend named Sam
So as you can see I am very close to being fluent in Hindi....Please tune in next time for Hindi with Justin
I love you all, Be Blessed Love Justin

Off to India
Well here I go off on another adventure. I will be in India and possibly Bangladesh for 3 months. I will be equipping pastors and people on how to study the word of God. This world needs biblical truth and I am so blessed that God has called me to this outreach to begin what I can only hope is to be for the rest of my life. It is going to be stretching but so awesome. God works in weakness and that is what I am. He is so awesome to use someone so weak. I am nothing without him.
I am so happy to report that God has provided my plane ticket and all of the rest of my fees. Thank you all so much for your prayers and support it truly means so much to me!
Prayer Request:
- That God will completely transform me and the people that I will be teaching through his living word
- That I will daily walk in the power of the Holy Spirit always looking to see lives changed
-Health and Safety we will be going to some rough spots
-Strength and Wisdom to handle teaching God's living word
I love you guys so much...please keep in touch
