As Harvest India gears up for what promises to be a ministry full summer, it is once again the time we Westerners wait anxiously for all year; Suresh’s annual visit to the USA! We are excited to share that Suresh will be visiting Arizona, California and Oregon this summer. Suresh will be traveling with David, his son, who is now fourteen. Please join us as we continually cover his family and this trip in prayer. Primarily, this trip will focus on connecting and updating our supporters, fund raising for the 2010 ministry year, and establishing new partnerships while sharing the salvation, love and redemption of Christ with everyone we encounter. Here are some of the ways you can join Harvest India:

PRAY for India

• Pray for new partnerships to be formed throughout the World in supporting Harvest India.
• Pray for the funding of projects and continued favor from the Lord in the days to come.
• Pray for the HIV/AIDS Hospice which was dedicated at the end of March. We are still waiting for the gas line to be laid this week and then we will be ready to welcome a combined 20 men and women to receive medical care at this “Hope Home.”
• Pray for the ministries: Orphanages, Elderly Homes, Bible Colleges and Pastors, Churches, Villagers in water well areas, Women still in the Red-light District and those who have come out through the Ashraya Project, Leprosy Compassion, Mercy Camps, Outreaches and Food Distribution and reaching the lost in India.
