AN IMMEASURABLE INVESTMENT

It's not so late here in CA, but with our bodies still being on East Coast time, it's beginning to feel like it's about time to call it a day.

Basil and Cathy D'Souza just left our room. He has a church that's thriving in Mumbai, with three other congregations linked to his church too. Plus there are dozens of pastors all over the country who look to him for input. Sitting here this evening, he had a number of questions about material covered in the conference today.

It's tough to realize that he has access to nothing like this whatever back home. So he's soaking it up, writing notes upon notes and clarifying anything that may be a bit hazy.

We asked him to be with us this month for two reasons. The first was to be at Grace and start our missions focus series off. The second was so that he and Cathy could come over to the Purpose Driven Church Conference to be taught, encouraged and built up so that they could then go back to India and do the same for pastors there.

Investing in them and their work means that we are touching the lives of many more pastors and of thousands of Christians.

What a privilege - and what an investment!
