week 2!!

ok, so maybe the honey moon stage is over, but there is still work to be done. if you could keep our team in your prayers that would be amazing! it is a very hard city kolkatta is the "city of death" and we can for sure feel it. it is hard to reach people here in the city because they only see our money, so it has been a challenge to have a simple conversation, we have been overwhelmed most days by the things we see and knowing that we only have Jesus to offer because our money and our love is simply not enough. we see so much poverty and are never sure if the people we see lying on the streets are dead or alive, at times it can be overwhelming. today we started in the mother theresa house and we didn't know how to function, there is so much death in this place and we are in a huge spiritual battle. in our personal lives we are trying to overcome the small things, no cold beverages, being dirty all the time, and not having any of the comforts we are used to, last night haha over half of kolkatta lost power and water, just because they shut it off sometimes lol.... what do you do? we have been fighting like crazy and praying a lot and have hope that we can impact and change lives here, but your prayers are important. i love you all!
