India (Calcutta)

Carved temples, marble palaces, dusty villages, plodding camels, man-eating tigers, holy cows, and snake charmers. More people living in extreme poverty than live in the entire United States. Worship of 33,000,000 gods, fear, animal sacrifice and ancestor worship form the backbone of stale tradition that keeps India in spiritual darkness. Hinduism defines the Indian culture; not only the country religion but the way of life.

You and your team will join the work started by Mother Teresa, caring for the sick, poor and abandoned. You will saturate the city with prayer in intense prayerwalking, show how much God cares for each person in parks, street, schools, and neighborhoods as your team builds relationships with the nationals and participates in evangelistic presentations. Through it all you will have a blast while making a personal impact that will have a ripple effect for generations to come.
