December 30th-January 1st

It was now three days after my encounter with the newspaper. In Virginia my friend Warren Stewart was watching coverage of the tsunami. He began to weep the tears of sadness for those suffering, and turned to his wife who was crying as well, and knowing her husbands heart said, “you need to go don’t you”. Warren called his friend Dan Kane in Phoenix and shared his desire to go serve and help in any way possible. Warren knowing Dan had been to India several times asked if he had any connections there. Rewind six months earlier at Antioch Network , Annual Gathering Joseph D'Souza of Operation Mobilization India was one of the speakers. OM India was working with a Denver based organization, the Dalit Freedom Network. Dan becaue of his contacts had been on the Dalit Freedom Network (DFN) email list. At about the same time God was speaking to myself and to Warren and then to Dan, Dan received an email notifying him that the DFN was sending a medical team to India. Dan and Warren began immediately making plans to join this medical team to serve as support to them. They would be leaving January 17th.
