I just realized I haven't introduced the folks travelling with me. It was just three of us. Dr. Ed Smith (the president of Faith Christian School in Grapevine) and Jon Brooks (the campus pastor) and myself braved the trip together primarily to scout out the locations and sites for our trip in March with about 20 students.
Thursday 11:00am – We headed out to Pali (about two hours from Jodhpur) to visit another Emmanuel School and orphanage. While we were there, it was lunch time, and we got mobbed by all the students wanting autographs from the Americans. I must have shook over 300 hands. Pictured above is Jon getting mobbed.

I'm sure the kids were very excited to see Americans and I think it is AWESOME that you were able to spread Jesus' love to children who need it so very much!
That is so cool that they all wanted autographs of Americans!
I love seeing this picture of Mr. Brooks. It is absolutely hilarious. It is really cool to see how the kids react to outside people, and how much of a difference we can really make.
aww that is so cute! its weird cause we see Mr.Brooks everyday and just say "hey" and keep walking to class and all of these kids want to stay with any american they can find forever.
This picture is sooo funny! I think all the pictures are cool but this one is my favorite. Im glad you all had a good trip!

I love this picture of Mr. Brooks with all the kids just having fun. Even though he is a goober head, he sure does have the heart to teach othere people around this world about Jesus Christ. This picture totally reminds me when I went on a mission trip and all the kids just couldnt stop hanging on to you. Well I am so glad that you had fun and I hope someday I will get to go to India.
thats a lot of handshakes, did your hand get sore?
Sweet wish i could go. I'm jealous for all the people that are going.

That is cool how the children were that exited over just some one of a different race and culture coming to there home. About the picture, is Mr. Brooks releasing a dove?
That is so cool. You go to some where else wanting to make an impact and they impact you. Mr.Brooks looks so funny.
We say "hi" to you guys everyday, but keep walking to class.. These kids want to be with anyone from the states forever.
