Kolkata, India

My husband and Elder Leong just returned to Singapore after working again for six days in Kolkata, India, with Pastor Emmanuel Singh and the group of believers there.  This time they had three extra people accompany them:  Ishu Mahtani, Claudia Leong, and our 9-year-old daughter Emily.  And Emily has agreed to write this blog post for us!  So here she is...

Dad, Uncle Fai Chong, Uncle Ishu, Claudia, and I went to Kolkata, India, to meet with Emmanuel and help with the work there. We stayed in India for 6 days.

Mantu, Sonali, Emmanuel, and me 

Dad, Uncle Fai Chong, and Emmanuel had a couple of meetings together on the 2nd story of their house.  

                                                 
There were a few Bible studies at Covenant Evangelical Reformed Fellowship, the church Emmanuel goes to. Emmanuel preaches in India.

We got to meet some of the people in India. 

                                                        Emmanuel, Abhijit, Uncle Ishu

I went to India to meet Mantu. She is an 11-year-old niece of Emmanuel & Sonali.

On Saturday we went to the zoo and Nicco Park. Nicco Park has a lot of rides there. 

This is at Nicco Park.

Emmanuel took me around on his motorcycle.

We took an auto once there. 

We went to a market. Markets are along the road. The roads are very busy!

We saw a few cows there. We saw 1 in the grass and 4 on the road. 

The food in India was very nice. We ate at Emmanuel & Sonali's house most of the time, but once we ate at a restaurant.

They had a lot of rice. 

We went to a small bakery near Emmanuel's house. They baked cakes.

There were a few monkeys right outside Emmanuel's window. 

Here are a few more things we saw.

Please pray for Emmanuel and the church in India.
