India is a very special place. Ask anyone who has gone there and they will tell you that the experience forever changed their view of God. This summer we are not able to go to India ourselves but as we pray for our sister churches and raise money for them we can be inspired by great places here in Lansing.

  "Prayer Passport: Lansing to Kerala" is our special contribution challenge for 2008. This booklet details my ten favorite prayer spots from this area. The challenge is to visit one spot per week and use the info in this booklet to pray to God in a new way and to pray for a church in India. Our prayers will go so much further than any money we raise. Once you've visited the place let Mary know so we can log the places we've visited and stamp our passports. Each spot corresponds with a different city that we support.
  On Sundays we'll share about India and have people share about their walks with God in these great places around Lansing. If we are fired up about God we will be able to help India this summer and for many years to come. Decide to visit each spot this summer! May you be as inspired as I am when I worship in these special places right here in the Lansing Area.
