You only see STARS like this on the houses of Indian Christians.
"If serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.” ~ Joshua 24:15
The missionaries in Nagpur are shining a light into the darkness of India.
This is the Taj Mahal. The Palace of Love. The ruler built this special place to house his wife's remains. It is beautiful for many reasons.
There are over 1 billion people living in India. Most of them are going to Hell and don't even know it. Pray for them.
Cows are believed to be reincarnated Hindu goddesses. They are loose on the streets everywhere. You have to be very careful not to hit them. If you kill a cow people come off the streets and beat you to death.
This is an Indian road in Delhi. Delhi is the capital and a really big city so it has medians and street lights, and lines on the road. Other places don't. Driving into oncoming traffic is a common practice in India. Its a lot safer than almost hitting a cow.
This is a typical driving in the smaller city of Nagpur. The road having lines painted on it is rare. Though, as you can see from the photo, the lines were merely a suggestion.
These were our drivers during our stay in Nagpur. God bless them for not hitting cows -people, sheep, monkeys, motorcyles, cyclists, rickshaws, or other jeeps for that matter.
Since gas is $5 a gallon in a poor country where $5 is a lot of money the typical form of transportation is a bicycle like this one. Also, bible college graduates receive a bicycle so that they can travel great distances in India to share the love and life changing message of Christ.
