Chase sent an e-mail today from India sharing a little bit of what is going with him. We thought we would share some of what he said on here, since he will not be updating the blog himself much, if at all.
"I am in Daharmsala India, living up in the mountain called Nadi, staying at a YWAM base. This place is so unbelievably beautiful, it almost feels like I am on vacation! The house is tucked up in the mountains with a our view out the windows of snow cap mountains everywhere.
Things are awesome here, we do local evangelism and also teach one on one classes of English with the Tibetans wanting to learn. Kind of a hard but good thing. The food here is ok, but no meat. The YWAM base here is vegetarian, but I’ll get over it. Things are pretty cool here.
We arrived in Deli and man o man, is it a packed city, crowded, dirty and tons and tons of people everywhere. I have never seen a third world country like this. Pretty intense, and will really challenge me to work on my faith. Definitely miss you guys, and the Aussie base with all my friends.
This Easter Sunday I am going to be preaching at the church we are attending. We have the whole service, Andrew will handle the worship, and others will be sharing their testimonies and bible verses. I felt led to take the sermon, so I will be starting with Genesis and moving to some of the prophesies of Jesus and then into His life. I feel God really wants me to hit baptism as well, leading to Good Friday and Easter. So, keep praying for me that I don’t offend anyone and get us into trouble.
I am really starting to love this place. It is not as crowded up here where we are, but still have many people. There are seven different cultures up here, one is the Monks, the Dali Lahma actually lives here, where we are, we went and held some prayer walks around his home. I really love the people up in the mountain of Nadi. We will be trekking into the mountains for about five days reaching some of the villages that are harder to get to. Should be really cool."
We also looked up some pictures of where Chase is exactly and thought we would share them. It's fun to be able to visualize all that Chase talks about, so we hope you enjoy these pictures!
