The pastors and Bible workers had spent all day getting our meeting site in the village of Kothapeta ready. Naturally just before we arrived, the power went out! Fortunately, it was restored within 15 minutes. By the time all the people from the 4 other villages arrived, we were introduced and garlanded in proper Indian style, and the local song service was finally finished (how do you say loud and off key in 8 verses?), it was 8:30! About 250 people attended. We began teaching them our action songs, had the health talk, and the felt Bible story. Harry changed things up a bit, and did his testimony instead of the first sermon because it was so late. Afterwards, we prayed with those who came forward for special prayer, and finished the meeting at 10:15. It was a good beginning, and we all felt blessed. Happy Sabbath everyone!
