On to Bangalore

One of the best parts about visiting Bangalore was seeing old friends that we were with in West Africa for many years. They gave us a great tour of the Bangalore Hospital where Rebecca Naylor served for so many years. There's a beautiful painting in the foyer of the hospital. It is Rebecca Naylor doing surgery with Christ standing behind her telling her what to do. It was very beautiful.

Bangalore was alot cooler than Delhi so we enjoyed that change. We stayed at a guesthouse on the hospital compound.

One of the most interesting things about our entire trip was visiting a project that BGR has been involved in there. An Indian couple have about 200 slum kids come to their house every afternoon after school for tutoring and a hot meal. This is the kids' only meal of the day! Their ages range from 4 - 12 (as far as I could tell). They were so well-behaved. The couple is doing a great job ministering to them.
