Another India Miscellaneous

The last couple Sundays have been filled with India times :)
Just this last Sunday, the girls on the team went to a place in upper California called Little India. It is placed in a city in California and specifically geared to all places Indian--food, clothing, people, etc. So, we looked at bangles (bracelets that the Indian women make to sell), punjammies (the unique clothing women wear) we found for $7 and $10 (quite cheap for clothing such as those; more expensive in India [I will have to take a picture of me in mine!]). The lady working there agreed with me that it was definitely the color and style for me! At the end, we walked over to a place where you can try some snacks (the packaging said "San Diego" on it, so only manufactured here in CA, not India). I really liked one of the snacks that had a mix of sweetness, crunchy, and yet a kick to the flavor (think of a trail mix). One of the girls that lives close by to me picked me up and went together. It was good since we got to know one another better :)

The Sunday before we had another training, and this one was unique in that we shared our testimonies and learned how to pray for one another in regards to waiting on the Lord and asking Him how to minister to His child. It was a good training time together. Our next training is this coming Sunday and our drama team is meeting afterward for a couple hours to go over some skits. Thank everyone for your prayers!

Blessings and love,
Rachel
