New start
Dear Friends
well knowing it been long time apologies for not doing it earlier.
as we start this new year, 2010 (with 2 zeros)We thank God who has enabled us to come so far. It is truly a milestone. Without God we could have never come so far.
On Christmas day we had Dian and Daryl for lunch along with Joshua ( a Careforce Volunteer from Prescot) ,
later in the evening we invited all the Indian families we are working with in Hailsham for a meal.
In total we were 15 of us. we had a great time, the families felt welcomed and planned to do it more often. I mean the Meals.
On 28th we left to Milton Keynes, Ash's friend , Sam picked us and we went to Riseley Met all our friends and stayed at the Williams (Hunters Lodge) from there to Huntington to Meet James Goldspink ( a volunteer who worked with Neerekshe in India) and then to Cambridge, at stayed with Basil and Sherley Scott (missionaries from India), and we were dropped to the station by John Martin.
Now we are back in Hailsham, Looking forward for another great year the Lord has instore for us.

Peregrinator
We reached London Heathrow airport at 11:30 Pm and took our luggage at terminal 4. probably we realized it to be the most empty airport in the world. The first thing we searched for a place we could sit in.
at 2:30 we got up and had a wash, and at 3:30 am we were in the check-in counter, but there was none there, so we had to stand there for more than 2 hours till somebody came from the airport authorities. So we were processed. The plane took off at the right time 6:30 AM.
we reached Amsterdam Schipol airport. After seeing that we think its probably a good airport in the world. From D16 we went E6 where we took the Delta train (sorry its the plane as I am writing in the train as I travel to )
the security check was at its strictest position including removing shoes and asking 10 multiple questions like where, what , why and how????
a very modest flight with screens not working, and getting back to an Indian cuisine. There we go.
Reached Mumbai Airport at 12 Am since they were not allowed to land in the airport for some time since they had not clearance from the authorities. So we circled on the Indian ocean of 3 full circles off Mumbai.
When we did arrive the first thing we felt is the hot air blowing into our faces. At the security clearance we had to fill in to form for swine flu clearance.
We stayed on at the terminals because our train was only at 8:00AM in the morning, so from 1-5:00 am we waited in the airport. We were very tired and there was no tea or coffee available and hungry also. I was so wanting to go to a hotel and take some rest, Asha encouraged me with words like “ dont worry its day time in UK so you can stay awake” with that I didn't blink through out the night. When morning came I was happy. At 5 Am we took the taxi to the station which took 1 hour to the station. Thats when our eyes were opened to the dirty world of India.
Got into the train, it was first class but it was the worst class to climb in it was very dirty and filthy not clean and there were cockroaches all around but some how , we had a late breakfast and immediately slept according to the UK timings. So we reached the Raichur city at 10:10 PM My sister and brother-in-law and their whole family was there. It was great to see them all. We went to their home had dinner, they gave me the jeep to drive back to the Lodge, but at the Lodge there were no reservations for us, so in the night at 12 am we went on a search for a place where we could sleep that night. Finally we made it to a Lodge where we slept , it was hot. We realized that was the very room we slept in when we first moved to the village 5 years back.
Next day 25th we were woken up by the noisy traffic outside. After breakfast we met our sister and their family went to their house for lunch and then went to the village. Now it was all the time driving, well one need not have insurance in India to drive.
At the village school all the kids gathered around the the jeep to welcome us and then my family came to do the same.
The whole time we spoke of our time in UK on how it was encouraging us to grow spiritually and also help those in need. It was just like a bottle of champagne shaken up about to break loose, well it did break loose.
Over all we had a hot (in terms to weather) time there and on 28th at 1:15am we took another train to Kerala

O Joy complete!
Dear friends
the year has be spectacular for both of us, as we have been spending time with working with St. Mary's Hailsham. Its been a time of rest as well as a time of learning teaching and encouraging the body of Christ.
Asha is involved in the helping a number of women in the church and also doing Christianity Explored courses with many new people. She has also joined the 'The Square' a community center for youth and social work. she helps a number of young people on Wednesdays. I work in the same place on Thursday and Friday (evenings). the kids are more rough and tough in the nights. Many have Family breakdowns and are into substance abuse.
Continue to pray for the church and the Vicar David Bourne and his family.
Much love in Christ

Tour Guide
Dear Friends
Greetings to you in Jesus Name
We are doing fine by God's Amazing Grace.
We praise God for the wonderful ways he is using us for the extension of his Kingdom.
At the Sussex Gospel Partnership Course. We are learning thoughts for Christian living, we are indebted to David Bourne for sending us there. We realized that we hadn't listened any good christian teaching for a long time.
We have been traveling to places like Farnbrough, Winchester, Bedford and Riseley.
It was great to go to Riseley, because Asha was visiting that place after 7 years. she took me on long walks and showed me most of the places she had been to, walked and traveled. Just loved it.
We are back at Hailsham this moment to help in advancing of the Gospel.
In Him

Dear friends
its been a month since we have been here in England.
I am writing to you all as we travel from Shrewsbury to our home in East Sussex. We had been to Quinta Hall for a Careforce conference. This is the first Christian Conference since we got married in 2004. There were volunteers with 21 nationalities. It was a great experience. We were Careforce's first couple. We are pleased that they have accepted us as a couple.
We had a wonderful time of hearing the word, worshiping God and sight seeings around, especially walking through a 421 meter long tunnel without lights and walking across an elevated aqueduct where boats can pass through. All in Wales and England. We praise God for this opportunity. (View Picture Link)
Friends the most constant message we have heard from God in the last week is from
James 1: 2-4
“Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.” (Message Version)
God Bless you All
Sangster and Asha
