We're Alive ... And well!

Sorry all - we haven't had internet access in about 4 days but just want to quickly say we are doing great & have loved our time at the Jubilee Homes. Tomorrow we'll meet with Deveraj in downtown Bombay and fly up to Delhi. Our bags have been located -- Praise the LORD!! -- and we will hopefully get them tomorrow. In the meantime, we have been rocking the Indian clothing we bought at the market a few nights ago. We are soaking in all the sights, colors, sounds (mostly horns honking) ... and interesting smells. We have survived both the food (it's been great!) and the chaotic driving. (There are cows and people and carts that randomly cross the street at frequent unexpected moments.) We have really bonded with the kids, the girls, and today, the women. We have managed to charge our equipment (computers, cameras, videocamera, iPods, you name it) and today captured some incredible testimony about their experiences being trafficked into sex slavery. We look forward to sharing it all with you when we return.

We will update our blogs more fully from the U.S. Hopefully we can write again from Delhi, where we will be from the 9th-12th and the 16th-18th. Thanks for your continual prayers for our safety! ;)

Love & Blessings,
Valerie & Erin
