I will have a laptop with me and will journal every days events of my time in India and a sequel to my EBook will be forthcoming within a few months of my return.  This is an exciting new year and I am very much looking forward to returning to evangelize, to share my gift of music, and to see a move of God I think I cannot even fathom. I expect there will be a much greater outpouring of Gods spirit. I believe there will be great manifestations of his power with Signs and Wonders. I still have a heart for poor children with no parents and without our help they have a very bleak future. Unfortunately, we cannot save the world, but I still believe we can save a portion, one child at a time, and one soul at a time.

Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every living creature." Mark 16:1  That is the Great Commission, one I am still intent on fulfilling, for the love of God, for the love of children, and a burden for the lost.
