In addition, she will spend a porion of her time working with WMUI, and the female seminary students at the IBTS in Kotayam.

She reflects that, “the most rewarding thing at this point has been the powerful realizaion of God’s guiding hand through this whole experience. I have seen God at work in me and in situaions around me. He is protecing me, blessing me and providing for me at the exact moment of need. He has been faithful as I have tried to be faithful. I have litle choice but to fully rely on him; I would be crazy to try this on my own. I feel like it’s me and God taking on India together.” To read updates from Krisin, please Click here to visit her blog.
