Chappdipalli is a tiny, seemingly non-existent municipality in the Chitoor district of the jungles of southern India. As we approached this little village, on this tiny little one lane dirt road, we saw numerous signs warning of elephants and tigers in this area. Though we did not see any, we were all made aware. Further, though we didn't come across any, we were given personal warning of a recent inundation of cobra snakes in this area. There have been as many as 1,400 bites in this area and we were told a story of a man in this Village that by prayer alone has effected the saving of many lives of those bitten WITHOUT them receiving ANY antivenom!!! What a TREMENDOUS testimony to the work that God is doing in this all but forgotten little land.
We made a brief stop at this tiny church whose construction was recently completed with funds that YOU donated. THANK YOU! This little church has a women pastor and she lives in a one room "parsonage" attached to the side of the church. We conducted a ribbon cutting ceremony then a short blessing of the church building and grounds. Then we took a few minutes to lay hands on and pray for any of the parishioners who were there for the ceremony. Imagine the spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ through this church, in a land that is only 2% Christian. This is because of YOUR kind giving. LOOK at what you are doing!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!! :)
