Mission work in Hyderabad

As a dad, it is awesome to see my daughter take on the world, with missions in mind. It is a proud and amazing time when children challenge their parents about the value and meaning of life, such has been the case with both my kids Clynt and Candice , especially Candice with her amazing heart to serve without question.

We are Americans, who has lineage to India , unfortunately, our great great grandparents, did not keep any records, except that fact that we still have our culture( to some degree). So this mission trip to India for Candice is a special one to see the 'mother ' land so to speak. We are so excited and proud of her and her courage to serve with other Americans is what makes us a great nation.

Her brother Clynt is an amazing leader in his own right, drawing kids to know Christ and challenge their faith. Given his heart for Christ and his unselfishness, he without his sister knowing, donated the $2000 shortfall she needed. How amazing, that kids in their 20's can have such a heart for God and make a difference in the world one person at a time.

We as parents are ashamed at our lack of faith but we are challenged to find a closer walk with Jesus and , so far our kids are our inspiration to help us get there.

We are the most fortunate parents to have children like Clynt and Candice.

Blessing in India !, May God protect and provide and most importantly, use the entire team at Hyderabad for the glorification of HIS name and may HIS will be done.

With much Love and Gratitude
