HELLO MUMBAI!

I have always wanted to stand in front of tons of screaming people and yell out HELLO __________! (Fill in the city we are in). Then listen to them as crazy gets crazier. Perhaps I should have been a rock star instead of a church worship leader. I will put that one in the folder "Dreams yet to be realized."

Welcome newcomers to My Novel Life. Perhaps you got a letter soliciting money and prayer or maybe you just got a letter inviting you to tag along on the journey. I want to say I cherish your participation in this journey no matter what it may involve. I want this to be a trusted place to come for updates and prayer requests. So bookmark it or put it in your favorites folder. You can also subscribe and get a quick email notice whenever I post something new. That is what I always do with blogs I read often.

SUPPORT UPDATE:

As of today I have about 12% of my support in. That could be a little scary, but I have been here too many times before to not trust His provision. If you are planning to join the money team, just a reminder to not dilli-dalli.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

* The team is practicing weekly for all the music we have to learn before leaving. Pray for God's protection as we meet each week. That God would use this to draw us together as a team, not apart.

* For the support raising process. It is coming in slowly for me and others. Pray that God would move on the hearts of people to join the team financially. Pray that some would join even without getting a letter, wouldn't that be cool.

* Pray for the staff as we work with the different venues in London and India via email, seeing that our time schedules are completely backwards. Pray that we get all the legistics lined up before leaving, so the team is not stressed any more than necessary upon arriving.

Thanks Team,

Jeff
